Would you mind using grammar and punctuation properly next time, or do you
just not care that one can assume you are a total idiot from your writing? -Jeremy -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jeremy Booker - Owner / Webmaster JTech Web Systems www.JTechWebSystems.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

Yup, don't mean to be mean, but I couldn't understand what you mean. Could
you please repost it with corrections? [View Quote] tony mAug 13, 2003, 8:57pm
It's quite possible that Jacob is not a native English speaker, or that there may be a mental illness which affects how his brain processes things such as grammar and/or spelling. It's hard to tell what's going on, but most definately he is not an "idiot".

Obviously I need to break this down for you to prove my point....
Let's take a closer look, shall we? > You get More feature and More Chat And More world and MORE Citizen and All > Of them Like in Oringal Active world -Incorrect capitalization on just about every other word. Anyone who has any sort of grasp on the english language knows that this is incorrect. Can you name for me any other foregin language that capitalizes there sentences like that? - Agreement problems. "You get more feature" Feature should be Features. - No punctuation. Again, anyone who has learned any english at all knows how to stick a period at the end of a sentence. - Run on sentence. There are three "and"s in a row. This should be a comma seperated list. - It's called "Active Worlds" not "Active World", get it straight. - "Like in Orginal" is incorrect. It should be "like in the orginal." >It's free - I think this is the only correct sentence in the whole post. (If you don't count the incorrect use of puncutation around it.) > it good - Have we gone back to cave men? I think I can stop right there. Please, don't even try to use the "maybe his primary language isn't english" crap. Even *if* english isn't his primary language, that post was a sorry excuse for writing. People from foregin countries who learn english learn the rules of capitalization. I might add that capitalization rules are the simpliest english grammar rules that exist. The way the first sentence was capitalized proves to me that this person natively speaks english and is just too lazy or ignorant to use the language properly. -Jeremy -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jeremy Booker - Owner / Webmaster JTech Web Systems www.JTechWebSystems.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

French is his primary language. But, regardless, I have no clue what
the hell he's talking about. -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 69 Processing time: 57 days, 10 hours. (Total hours: 1378) www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu tony mAug 13, 2003, 10:00pm
You have obviously looked at only one of my explanations for Jacob's incoherent posts. I mentioned two possibilities:
1) non-native English speaker (which you rebutted) 2) a mental handicap (a very likely possibility) I'm only offering suggestions as to why he continues to persist in creating incoherent messages; nobody can ever be sure unless they know Jacob's exact condition.

Jacob, if you got a free Citizenship AW would lose money and raise normal
prices and they'd have to pay more for developers so they'd raise the price even more and everyone would get AW Deluxe and AW would slowly disappear from existance [View Quote] imagineAug 13, 2003, 10:52pm

He's making a suggestion for an Active Worlds variant. (or at least he seems to be trying to)

Ok, I was wondering, cause it sounded like a joke but I wasn't sure why he
would make a joke like that with no lead in :) And I know there isn't anything like an AW Delux. Imagine [View Quote] tengelAug 13, 2003, 11:34pm

And for those users who somehow experience intense pain due to Jacob's incoherent ramblings, may I once again point out the many uses of the handy dandy newsreader killfile. It's modern day magic at its finest - it can make posts just... disappear! :o bowenAug 14, 2003, 3:15am

Then let's face the facts, he's 5. (he lives in the Ottawa(?) region so
French and English are the only native choices) -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 69 Processing time: 57 days, 10 hours. (Total hours: 1378) www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu joemanAug 14, 2003, 8:14pm
