I have recently noticed a increasing amount of people who have no regards for proper grammar.
Here are some tips to make sure you don't become the owner of a flaming thread.
1. Use capital letters and correct punctuation.
2. Remember to check for correct spelling.
3. Don't use all caps when typing. The only time caps can be used is abbreviations like Strength: STR, Intelligence: INT. Reading long posts that contain ALL CAPS MAKE THEM HARD TO READ FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME.
4. Be polite to others. I'm catholic so heres a saying I'm told often, and is good for any religion: "Do unto others as you would like done to you"
5. Try not to be biased to much on your opinion on a certain thing.
6. Lengthy Paragraphs become hard to read at certain times, so in between sentences, if appropriate, hit Enter.
This will create an easily read post.

I have looked in this topic several times, and all the time I read this post, I have thought "this deserves a sticky so much that I will maul myself if it doesnt get sticked", in fact is should be in all sections so that someone would look in it no matter which section before they hit the new topic button and do OMFG THIS OMFG THAT BOT CCF PK2 PROBLEMS PLIZ HELP PLIZZZZZZZZ and that kind of bull

Shadowman, if you come to this thread, whenever you see somebody getting for help and you have to post that picture of the Caps Key, you should definently direct him to this thread.

A button should be added to the forum to "submit thread to shadowman's database" And that button should look like a Caps Lock key hehe

OMFG WTF IS THIS..lol kidding..
well +1 on most of your points here.. flaming here is really anoying (almost left the forum cause i kept on attrackting flamers some how, now i know that they are all 13 max and this is really the only kick of life they can get. So i'm ignoring them now.
Whole posts in caps is just stupid.
But your first 2 points: grammar, caps on the first letter of a sentence?? common now.. don't push it. I'm getting flash back from my grammar teachers and that is not good.. i can tell you that.
As long as i can understand what you're saying, you are friendly and stay openminded to other ppl's opinions and suggestions then I really don't care about anything else.

Evidently not you then.
