Calling someone a "walking mistake" is an insult. Common sense should tell you that is against the rules. Oh, and just because other people do it, doesn't mean it's okay for you to do it.

Calm down, because if you do it again, you're probably going to get warned for it.

It's beyond my ability to mind-read; to be expected to tailor my post so that everyone would know what I'm saying is an outrageous demand, a very selfish one.
It's understandable for one to be unable to mind read. And as for an outrageous and selfish "demand" as you may call it, try looking at it as simply being convenient. You carry the title of Admin here as you’ve told me oh so many times in the past, surely you haven’t forgotten that. Therefore the need or desire of seeking approval is not a requirement for you. Yet you continue these feeble attempts to flatter others with your “complex vocabulary” and in turn only end up confusing the hell out of some people, some people who may have complex vocabularies themselves. You don't feel in-superior do you Sturm?

Surely you can cite an instance, or just admit you're wrong.
Cnonical. All I wanted to know was why I had a warning against me, but your poor word structure kept me from finding that out....at first.

That's not a load of crap. "Angel Fallen" is using "fallen" as a verb, and it's grammatically incorrect. I assume that they're doing it on purpose rather than that Atlus that stupid.

I thought you said you knew the word "canonical." Since most people here are fic-whores, most of them would too. It's hardly an instance of me trying to "flatter"* others with my complex vocabulary, considering I used a word most everyone here would know.

This example doesn't count since, instead of giving proof that I used it incorrectly, like I requested, you floundered and said you just don't get it. Your misunderstanding is not a mistake on my part.

No, I told you as soon as you asked why you were warned. The retort to your insinuation came after. Also, you should know why you have a warning against you; not only can you click and see the explanation, but we send out PMs to those we warn. Maybe you should read them.

* "Flatter" is not the word you're looking for here. To flatter someone is to compliment them, to make them feel respected or worthy. Using a "complex vocabulary" would be a way of making myself seem more intelligent than I truly am, not making other people feel better about themselves. Especially when it "confuses the hell out of" them, though I don't think confusion is a common thing when it comes to words; after all, that's what a Dictionary is for.

Oh, right, forgot about your post.

Are we forgetting the Bloody Rapier, which claims to restore Morale on movement but actually depletes it? Or the numerous typos and errors in the dialogue (Yggdrar in BF8 and BF11 losing conditions, "crecent" in the Silver Moon's description, etc)?

Typo is not nearly the same as blatant grammatical stupidity.

The typos show that the editor did a less-than-perfect job.

Look, Ryo, what Sturm is simply asking you to do, (this is excluding all that crap you two have been firing back and forth at each other) is to give examples of where he is wrong and explain why. So far, you have done neither, basing your argument on a simple "Well, he just is!" type of statement.

And for the record, Sturm didn't use canonical wrong. Clearly, just about everyone here understood what point he was trying to make; perhaps you don't know the definition of the word.

No, it's not a typo, Rai is just a nitpicker.

Xel, Angel Fallen is exactly what it states. Marietta was an archangel, but she dies at the hands of Yggdra and Co., thus "Angel Fallen" is appropriate, and not vice versa. It's in no way related to "Fallen Angel" I just think Atlus would have thought it was idiotic to put "Lost an Angel" in the translation when you don't see much of angels throughout the story.

So no, it isn't a typo.


Sturm, do we have to spoiler tags even if the topic states that there are spoilers?

Do you see me using spoiler tags in here?
