"..."

[Psypher5]

What's with the uproar of people using "..." after every 3 words? Really, its annoying.

In proper use its fine, makes sense, but after every 3rd/5th word of the bulk of unpunctuated writing there is, I for one am getting sick of see-ing it :/

JUST STOP IT.

-.-

as said, like that ^ its ok, but.. after every few words... it starts to get... kind of...annoying...

no?

 

[Psypher5]

I use it all the time... proper name is ellipsis. You use it to acknowledge when you deliberately miss words out

I'd hate to meet some of the people who use it constantly then, I'd never understand what the bork they were on about if they kept missing things out

 

[Psypher5]

You're right - it is annoying... there really is no excuse for poor punctation.

(I'm a fan of using dashes as well - bet that annoys you too!)

I only use dashes when i cba spelling properly, mostly with e-ing words :/

 

[Psypher5]

And you think i care if anyone does take note? Its a forum, people post crap, I add to said pile.

and if i were a grammer nazi, the nazis would fall again :/

 

[Psypher5]

Perhaps if you used a dash instead of a hyphen it would

em dash —, en dash –, hyphen -. Totally different.

lmao, exactly, oh how great a grammer nazi am I... (plus theres like a 3mm diff in those lines -.-)

 

[Psypher5]

I completely overuse them but then again...I always have.

*n

not to the extent that makes me stop reading

LOL, you see this thread?http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17636741

the one that started my rage!

*head pops*

 

[Psypher5]

nothing wrong with it occasionally I use it sometimes too, but every 3 words, its REALLY annoying.

 

[Psypher5]

it's* +it seeing* +.

About as annoying as people making the above mistakes.

never said I was perfect, or a grammer nazi. I don't care if I make mistakes, if it's readable fine, but look at the linked thread and go **** them off? :/
