in a way i kind of regret being an article writing tutor for retrojunk, in the earlier years most users were open to critique but after its decline the new users popping in were getting aggressive about it, no matter how civil you would be with them. i'm glad to know you've done your own part in that light though.

I like to check my writing now by pasting it into Google Translate. It helps a lot.

Yeah, an autocorrect feature of some kind is really necessary. It won't fix all the problems (like run-on sentences or stuff that is just poorly constructed, but it does force you to at least capitalize things that should be capitalized, and stop spelling simple words incorrectly.
You love this signature.

Yeah, I've noticed in rereading some of my articles that I may have made a couple of small mistakes here and there. It happens, we aren't professionals. However, if you can't put together a coherent article then you shouldn't be writing at all.
*Insert funny signature here*

I guess my "toPe 10 retro recipees" isn't going to see the light of day. |

I support extra long, extraneous, superfluous, overflowing, bountiful, descriptive, sentences that abound in word count by forcing quality and quantity down the throats of the reader. Once I had a dude accuse me of having too many pictures and not enough text. I added up my run-on sentences for that article and proved that I had nearly double the word count of his last article. Also I support Vaporman in his endeavors and wholeheartedly agree with his stance on proper grammar and importance of personal time. I will attempt to amend my ways forthwith. Sincerly, NLogan P.S. I had to edit this post three times to conform to our new standards. |

If playing the chalkboard game Hangman taught me anything as a child it was this, death by hanging is the appropriate punishment for misspelling words. |

@NLogan: My head has exploded from your nonstop sentences, but you’re not one of the authors this is directed at. And no, I won’t name names. Though for the right amount of money... who knows. You love this signature.

The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.
