Actually, "Is," not, "Were." Originally it was going to read, "Would have," but then I changed it to the present tense. I didn't bother to go back and change were to is. Oops. Finding this single flaw amongst a virtual mélange of chatter must bring balance to your world. I get laid & paid while you spend all day trying to own me online. :)

I am surprised you didn't take the more obvious bait that I purposely left. Are you smart enough to find it? It's in this post as well.

Actually that was a mistake as I clearly wrote in the above post. There is something else that I did on purpose.

so in other words, when one of us makes a mistake (be it grammatical or spelling) you are most happy to point it out - in favor of responding to the actual point posted - yet when you do so we should just ignore it, since you knew it was a mistake?

*trying to figure out the wonder that is rep*

[edit] wait. ignore this. im too sick to start this conversation :(

The difference is clear. When I make a mistake, I know better but somehow have overlooked something. I've done it before, and most often it was when I was changing tense in order to make the sentence flow after augmentation.

Most others around here make mistakes but don't know any better.

This post contains the same purposely planted syntax issues as the ones before. Whosoever finds it will get a cookie.

rep has a tendency to ignore someone's reply completely to point out a typo or missing comma. :shrugs:

true. now i ask you, whats worse. someone making a mistake in a language that isnt their own or someone making the same mistake in a language that is their own? :D

for some reason it gets to me that odium consistantly typed "oppinion" >:E i think that's worse than Geebs typing "me" instead of "met" once. everyone can miss a char here n there. mistyping the same word over and over again on the other hand.. ;)

I'm surprised you noticed. I've never checked Q3W before. It has so many problems.

I wonder if fixing all of them would somehow streamline the site or make it more compatible with everything? Any improvement, however miniscule, is worth it.

Edit: For some reason, Firefox nerds protest the results of that famous browser benchmark that clearly shows Opera being miles ahead of the rest. Mjrpes said something about my baseless claims (whatever) so I did a little test of my own. I recorded at 60 frames per second with CamStudio opening both Opera and Firefox. Here's the kicker: Firefox had just Yahoo open. Opera had nineteen tabs with the main window being a high resolution press photo with a few flash movies on the same page. Opera not only beat Firefox to load, but managed to completely load from cache thirteen of the tabs in the same time it took Firefox to load Yahoo from it's cache.

Hilarious.

In Opera:

File, Import and Export, Import Netscape/Firefox bookmarks.

:)

Edit: I'm loving this skin "Concrete II: Electric Boogaloo." It looks sort of lame at first, so give it a few minutes. http://my.opera.com/community/customize ... gi?id=3065
