There are hundreds and hudnreds fo surs on this forum, but how many of them actually post or do anything? Or even visit these forums anymore?

I propose we purge all users who havent logged in, in the last 4 months.

I propose we purge this forum from Alantai.

No really, what would be the point of purging non-rabid posters? Annoy them to make sure they hate Spring and never come back? Be certain that only Alantai and Zombie remain?

Sight...

dont remove users, it makes em pist off.

If you want to know how many users are active, code a list of all users posted in last 24-72 hours and send it to the SY's... better then trowing 30 accounts out the window

I suggest purging all users that are unable to type words correctly and mix up the letters they consist of.

I suggest purging every nagging idiot who cares more about the forums spelling qwality then anything else.

Seriusly, i think half off off all posts contain some kind of complanint on spelling. Plese, it's getting annoying.

Yes, BAD spelling is annoying. But start complaing when something is unreadbole, or l33t.

I'm not a rabid poster, I just have a lot to say, and there are a lot of things to say things about.

And yes, I find moaning about bad spelling is more annoying than the misspellings themselves.

The advantages of correct spelling have been pointed out many times, if you have a problem with bad spelling then dont say ought, there's no need to express an opinion when hudnreds have already done so.

But when someone uses the wrong word, misspells it, and puts it in the wrong place in a bad sentence with horrible syntax AND doesnt use paragraphs, and does so repeatedly:

Mongus, find one instance of Spam by me.

And while you're looking, try to get my name right.

As for the spelling, the major culprits don't take note, and don't change the way they communicate, and then wonder why everyone ignores them, or doesn't take them seriously (like my spam-accusing friend here).

I wish moderators would do more to enforce the need to communicate understandibly. Writing illegibly is the same as trying to conduct a conversation while drunk.
