The Forum Fortnight of Grammar Appreciation

Recurring Villain · #1 March 15, 2007, 6:28 AM

With the recent banning (heheh, I jumped the gun, ok, shut up) of certain troublemakers whose the grasp of language, etiquette and conversation in general, was pathetic at best, I am announcing the next two weeks (the duration on their ban) the Forum Fortnight of Grammar Appreciation.

There's no public holiday but you can wear party hats if you like.

yippee, I'll design the T-shirts, I'll handle food and drink as well. Oh I'm so happy

.
We could put those banners down now, but lets keep them up for anyone who dares feel our wrath (well, at least the mods

).
It's highly likely that those certain members may not be back, they may be too ashamed and nervous to come back, we'll se what happens.

We with the proper grammer can count of RV to save the day , and ban the txt talkers and spammers lol , i was there their glum faces as they couldnt get on to chat, as we all go to the same school, Me, Brandon,Daryl,Sam and Ronnie of course.

The only problem with the internet is I wont be able to see the look on his face.

Unless their return is heralded with well-constructed sentences, I think that if they do come back it will be temporary

This was the kind of thing I'd hoped to avoid... could you link me to the thread where you consulted with other moderators and at least one of them agreed with you as I explicitly stated had to be done if a moderator wanted someone banned?

Thought not. Ban lifted.

Now he'll come back and say more stupid things.
