[AmoebAssassin]

[214kka-et240sx]

I can't bring myself to read that post. PLEASE, would some punctuation hurt THAT much? Seriously man...wow

see wat i mean every one here gets mad for no reason who cares about punctuation crap we are not in school the guy just wants some advice bout his car (pantherRACER retarded SN ) you act like you are perfect just chill man

[PantherRacer]

I'm not mad, I just asked for some punctuation. chu gatta probleme? say hello to my leetle friend!!!

Can't take a joke dude?how about you lurk and read some threads for a while then start to post?

My S/n is retarded? NOW I'm mad GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Hw about you ask what it means b4 jumping to conclusions? I just happen to head a car club called Team Panther Racing, TP-R for short. So Instead of putting the whole team name, I put Panther Racer, as in a member of the team. Or does that one go over your head?

What does 214kka-et240sx mean b4 I go calling it retarded?

ALSO lol, do you plan on insulting every single member of NICO b4 you get banned for rubbing everyone the wrong way?

[PantherRacer]

Saint, Congrats on the Trade! if you took my joke the wrong way I'm sorry. That's just my humour, now SOME ppl need to watch their dirty little fingers.Don't forget the pictures man

[madbouncy]

Congrats on the turnout man. Must have been a huge releif after what happened to your old s13. Since you're having so much good luck, any chance you want to send me the exhaust cam and the valve cover, I'll pay shipping.

Punctuation is good but it's not like you can't read it without it. I guess playing games so long like CS you get use to reading all sorts of weird stuff.

[214kka-et240sx]

i just dont like ppl actting all perfect than others but sorry bout the SN name didn't mean it but dont do that punctuation thing cuz it doesn't have to be all that

my SN mean 214k miles and my ka-et 240sx is wat i drive but sorry bout that (friends)

[214kka-et240sx]

and no i am trying to insult no one its ppl that insult me but i wont do that no more

[PantherRacer]

All right all bad feelings aside I'd rather have friends than enemies anyday

I'll remember to put the *j/k* sign on all my non-serious posts from now on, Promise

[Veriest1]

It sounds like you're getting a really good deal.

see wat i mean every one here gets mad for no reason who cares about punctuation crap we are not in school the guy just wants some advice bout his car (pantherRACER retarded SN ) you act like you are perfect just chill man

But I didn't read you're entire post... I got a headache from trying to figure where everything was going. Wasn't there a set of rules outlined for the forum at one time that included decent grammer? Or at least an attempt at it? I can't find anything now and I've searched for the better part of an hour... so maybe I'm thinking of another forum.

I did find this....

[saintsinner]

gee guys,sorry bout all the grammatical errors and what not.its just that i was typing fast,and i was rushing to work.plus i was excited but anyway no harm no foul,thanks for the replies ill post pics when i get home from work....later guys...im running to work right now!!!

[Florida240sx]

Waiting for the pics....Great deal indeed, makes me feel like I got ripped off.

[GrilledCheese33]

yep congrats on an awesome deal, too bad s14s don't come around at that price!

[GrilledCheese33]

[saintsinner]

I'd just like to emphasize no hard feelings. I was searching for how poor grammer had been handled in the past and found that comic.

Anyway, I'm waiting for pictures.

[masticatingcow]

That rocks. Nice find.

Now what follows is not aimed at any one member, so please, everyone understand that we are all at fault for crappy writing from time to time.

You know, people tend to get frustrated when others call them out on their grammar, suggesting instead that it doesn't matter. ("we rnt n skool, mk?" or "it dsent mater u no wat i sad") What people don't understand is that it DOES matter. For one, while it may not be true that people who write well are more intelligent, a mastery of the language ALWAYS conveys intelligence, and in online discussion, intellegence conveys respect. Also, in a well-written block of text, at least in informative discourse, there should be no abiguity about who said what to whom and when. Take it from your friendly neighborhood NICO Engish teacher... grammar matters! Give your posts some authority by taking the time to make sure it is well written and people will know you care about what you are saying, and ultimately respect you for it.

I know it doesn't seem that important, but BELIEVE ME, online especially, where the only thing your audience has to go on is your written word, having some mastery of the written language will help you immensely. It's the same thing as being able to speak Ebonics in some parts of Oakland, CA. Understanding it is only half the battle; you need to be able to spit it back out if you want to engage in a meaningful dialogue.

Anyways, congratulations on your car(s)... you lucky bastard! PICS! PICS! PICS!
