This is an outrage!

[Diddums]

In my efforts to troll @Haggisman a bit I specifically did a stupid and typed out a response with "would have" instead of "would have" and the forum fixed it for me.

As someone who judges people by their literacy and grammar abilities, this has now thrown me off completely!

WHY

 

[Haggisman]

Ban TBH

 

[peterwalkley]

Is admitting to trolling really the road you want to go down ?

I think technically he's admitting failing at trolling, which isn't against the rules, in the same way that failing at speeding isn't actually going to get you in trouble with the police

Like attempted murder?

As Kevin Bridges says (I cant find the clip) - you still attempted it but failed. You should get a bigger sentence for making an arse of it

Ban for grammar so bad he needs a computer to fix it.

Depends how badly you failed surely. What if you tried to poison someone but instead accidentally ended up making them a really nice cup of tea?

No, it's a power cut.

It's been a while since we've had our mandatory daily @[FnG]Magnolia thread. Where is he anyway?

 

[potatolord]

Thread title needs more exclamation marks.

Thank you to whoever coded this feature in, such that we never have to experience the pain of reading "would <of>".

 

[Maccy]

I think we added 'would of' to the filter and replaced it with 'would have' to teach heathens like you.

I wouldn't of done that personally. Gives a warning of who to avoid (a bit like those little England flags on cars )

Edit: hah, it worked

Don't know what you're on about?

Forum auto-correct

I just realised this forum auto-corrects certain grammar errors. E.g. 'could_of' is changed to 'could_have'. Try it without underscores and see for yourself. could have. What other things (apart from expletives getting swapped for asterisks) does the forum silently auto-correct?

This was posted about two days after the tweak was made.



I've added another one since that thread.

This thread is diabolical.
