Everyone,

This is an announcement simply requesting people to ensure their use of grammar is pretty much correct, I make exceptions for those who are foreign as English is not their primary language. However, use of capitalisation at the beginning of sentences, single spaces between words, no emoticons, and fullstops at the end of sentences to make them seem logical, is essential in order for people reading your roleplaying to interpret what you mean. It also makes the forum look neater, especially when new topics are posted with all lower case letters or bad grammar.

This is simply a suggestion which I won't take any further, I don't really have the time to ammend every mistake you make but if I spot someone doing this repeatedly, I will send them a personal request, etc. Basically, please please please, just look through your topics you have created and make sure they are written in a presentable format and ensure all your posts from now on possess the correct grammar usage.

Thank you.

[P.s: Please no one liner posts either, try make them four lines or more, with the odd exception.]

I'm one who doesn't have English as a primary language, and I'm a bit perfectionist...... so if I made some mistake on grammar, feel free to correct me, I only have google translation as help!! XP

@Eva I'm glad! <3

@Emily I had a feeling you didn't speak English xD Tbh, I respect anyone who knows another language at all! I shall certainly be a lot more tolerant of your grammar mistakes x3 Im sure a lot of people on the site would be willing to help you with that too if you asked <33 Your doing brilliantly so far :3

<u> Bi-lingual ftw♥

I'm a French/English speaker... and have a really horrible habit of breaking out into french when I speak. I got yelled out yesterday while at the movies for it. ;A;

(English is first language, so meh. I'm a Grammar Nerd. Unless I'm on chat, then I just don't care. xD)

Well, I care for the most part since I can't read it if it's too messy. But if you're ever need help with Grammar, gimme a message. I'm actually, going, to major in teaching Secondary English.♥ (American High School English (8th/9th - 12th grade. I'm unsure of how that translates to Europe/African/Australian/Asian/Russian/etc schooling.)

So just pop a message if you're in dire need of English assistance!

(Or if you speak French, come talk to me. I feel lonely in a Spanish/English speaking area. Q_Q J'AIME FRANÇAISE.♥)

XDDDDDDDDD C'est TROOOOOOOOOOOOOOP mignon de vous voir parler français!!! <33333333
Je dois admettre que même pour moi qui suis française la grammaire à toujours été un véritable cauchemard! ;P

I'm sorry if I make grammar mistakes. I'm trying my best not to do too much of them but sometimes my mind refuses to think in an english way. Don't hesitate to tell me if there's something I wrote that you don't understand. ^^

The French language is so beautiful!!! *-*
I can undestand a bit what you wrote, 'cause French is a bit like Portuguese.... After finishing my English course, I want to start learning how to speak French and Italian... XP
