    Banned for Wanting Grammar!

    So I play this game called: Rumble Fighter (www.rf.ogplanet.com) and recently I have been more active on their forums. I never realized how annoying it is when grammar is not mandatory for the forums. There is this guy in that game named Micester and he makes a thread asking where all the "E balls" are. There is not such thing as an "e ball" in rumble fighter. You can see the thread here.

    Since then he has been seemingly trying to increase his post count by double posting and what have you. His posts also make absolutely no sense. He uses horrible grammar and phrases that I have never seen before.

    Here is an example of his intelligence:

    and sonic.
    1) No one here is a "dude man."
    2) "etween" is not a word.
    3) We will all "get it going right" once you learn proper English.
    4) Your post count should be put to 0 (that is a zero not an "o").
    u maked no sense at all man dude man is a word b etween waws a word cuz theress a B
    we all get going right even tho you didnt see that part
    my post count is 390 almost lol liar
    And one more example:
    Originally posted by Micester
    ya but for real thats what i do i talk to topics and only to post that stuff no spam for that man and dude its not trolls
    At this point I send a request to Rumble Fighter's Help Desk (you send pictures of glitchers, you ask for stuff if you need help etc.) to make grammar mandatory. I was declined. Since I was declined I basically made a thread with a screen shot of their decline and I asked people what they thought. If they thought grammar should be mandatory or not.

    Here is the image that I posted in thread:


    Some ten minutes later I refresh the page to see if anyone else has said anything and the thread is missing. I think about it for a second and then look on the bottom right of my page and it says that I can't do anything in the forums. I send a message to the help desk and ask them why I got banned. (I assumed for flaming Micester so much or possibly that my avatar was 210KB over). They told me that any e-mail that OGPlanet sends me is confidential and is not to be shared with anyone. With the help desk not only do they reply to you on the website (in the help desk), they also send you an email. ProProxy-Connection: keep-alive
    Cache-Control: max-age=0

    -Connection: keep-alive
    Cache-Control: max-age=0

    I didn't know that and no where in the Help Desk reply does it say that I'm not supposed to share that information with anyone. In the end I am permanently banned from their forums for wanting grammar to be mandatory.

          If you mess up grammar around here, you get shot and thrown in the trash.

          No really though, that's WAYYYY unfair.
          They really should have posted on the help desk that your not aloud to share that email.

          And for Tass, YOUR FORUMS ARE SWEET.

                I know grammar not being required is annoying but remember this, while your on there, you are NOT on FFR. It's what they say. If you don't like it, don't come.

                      So wait is there a rule where you have to talk like you never took an English class?

                      I am so there.

                          Yeah, there was this other website on which I complained about the forum's state of affairs, and gave an example of FFR as a forum that's run the way a forum should be run.

                          But they didn't seem to get it, and pointed to all of the terrible threads that do exist on FFR and laughed at me, while missing the bigger picture - FFR has valuable threads, and that other forum didn't.
                          C is for Charisma, it's why people think I'm great! I make my friends all laugh and smile and never want to hate!

                            And having bad grammar makes you look less intelligent.

                              Well then, make sure you use good grammar and stop lecturing people about what they should/shouldn't do. I frequent a forum with 0 rules except for 'don't do illegal stuff', and it works out perfectly fine. Stop being uptight about how others spell, and make sure you're perfect yourself before you point at anyone else.

                              EDIT: In fact, that forum is how all forums should be. No modding whatsoever, just a group of friends posting whatever they want to post.
