    No penalties. I use the quality and content of others writings to determine my responses. You would remove the feet from so many deserving mouths? The amount of stupid may not change, but at least we can see it coming.

    I understand people from Europe and such having a hard time translating to English, that's understandable once someone looks to the left and can see where the OP came from, but someone from Boston, New York, or anywhere where English is the common language really needs to it together.

    I'm not asking for people to use college level mid term paper grammar, but i am asking for a general common line of correct usage.
    You should take a good look at your own grammar. I don't see how you got out of elementary school using the grammar quoted above. I bet you can't even diagram your own sentences.

    I nominate you to be the official "Grammar Guru" for r3v. Your duty will be to oversee the grading of all the posts and to administer punishment to all of those who make errors. Start with your own post. You will be the first one banned.

    Now, get to work!

    Half of you bitch and moan half the time you see bad grammar as well, so i dont see the issue, you damn boat jumpers.

    If you speak of any other language on r3v, where is it? Im sure EVERYONE here including people who translate CAN use a general sense of grammar.

    Yes, the prime example someone posted is someone i just hate reading posts from.

    Racist? No. I dont hate one group of ethnicity, i hate every one, equally. Sorry.

    There has to be some sort of action. In the past 4 years, it has gone from a seldom case of bad grammar, to almost 1 of 5 posts. its really getting out of hand.

    My point is: if someone has to think to themselves "what the fu*k did he just try to say?" in their minds, its gone too far.
    See above.

    In case you don't know or haven't heard of ShawnD,

    I think it can lead down a road that can turn people off,

    This could help
    The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.

    As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".

    In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

    There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

    In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

    Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.

    Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

    By the 4th yer peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

    During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.

    Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

    Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.

    If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl.
