On the back of that table, I think I might tone down my post count.

[Yudster]

Interesting

Ha very. Especially looking at the joined dates versus post count.

Posting more in less than a year then people who've been around for 5/6 years, says a lot.

I am appalled.

Yea - I joined before you, Yuddy...
But then you think your bad, look at S4B's post count!

That's cos I'm garrulous! (think that's how it's spelt, may only b 1 r )

[Yudster]

Nope, thats right. *Takes "pedant" hat from Topher and wears for the day*

[foot-loose]

However, "be" does have an "e" in it?

[S4B]

Thanks honey. I'm at work with about 50 dictionaries just outside my door, just couldn't be bothered to move. Am v listless today.

[claradooblue]

50 dictionaries outside my door would make me want to rebel; in a spelling sort of a way.

I don't think I could rebel in spelling terms even if I tried. I'm a spelling and grammar pedant. Can't help it.

Me too. Which is grammatically incorrect, in and of itself.

Sometimes I sit and fret about whether I've split the infinitive.

[Boboff]

So am I ususally. I correct people so much one of my kids has picked up on it and now corrects his teacher.

My pet hate is prepositions at the end of sentences the only problem is that you can sound quite pompous if you don't do it.

We should invent more suffix's denoting affection into the English language. Just sticking a y onto the end of things just doesn't do the job.

Such as?

[kendra k]

are you guys trying to bump up your post counts to move up in the ranks? that's just sad.

[S4B]

*shocked voice* Not at all - I just can't stop posting, you should see me texting, I carry on conversations for hours! It's a habit, I've tried to get help but can't seem to find any

[foot-loose]

I think folk should keep an eye on when it becomes a private convo between two members. Thats what the PM system is for and I'm pretty sure that its in the rules that we shouldn't do it as well.

I think I have been guilty of doing this as well though, it can be hard to keep track.

[S4B]

There were 3 of us involved tho

[foot-loose]

Sorry - I wasn't meaning anything in particular when I said that - just in general.

No, I'm just nosey and opinionated - a lethal combination on any forum.
