Default Please learn to read/write. It's ARMBRACE not "AMBRACE"

People, it's not that hard... way to many people have "wtb: ambrace 100k+20" and such in party search or in all chat or whatever! I searched in the auction, and someone named their auction "ambrace of truith" it's not a big deal... but seriously.

Basically, this is a general thread based on common English. I'm a fan of correct punctuation and vocabulary, not "13375p3a[<" and such.

Its Arm brace. Armbrace isn't a word. Devs don't have spell check.

The English language, more specifically American-English, is a dying language. Most people don't care to speak affluently or put any effort into their spelling ability. The Internet is largely to blame for this.

You can't save or correct these types of people, it's a lost cause.

Hm, you may want to remove the link. I know you warn people but I think it's better to not place link at all to these account thieves.

This is the most stupid thread I've seen since, the one yesterday the OP wrote with the wammo skill set. No one really cares about how to spamm there WTS/WTB. Some people really can't spell, tell them in the game not freaking here.

If you want +1 post count try the off-topic threads.

Post count mean nothing. I'm just simply pointing out a common error.

And people still say "Silver Armor", it's just something one must come to accept.

Well, for one. I searched for "Armbrace" in auctions and found three of them. I searched for "Ambrace" and found one. This thread is simply for making those who are unaware that... it's Armbrace. -_-

Well there are a lot of wrong spellings in the chat and i guess most of the people are actually proud of typing things wrong. (like people who are proud that they suck at math) It's a shame but that's the way it is.

WTB max dmg shield reg 8-10
i still wonder how much damage a shield does and how "reg" became a shortcut for requirement.

Noxify, you are an embarrassment to these forums and to GW, everyone here gets dumber just by reading your threads.

Stop Posting , thank you.

I'm as much a grammer policeman as the next person, perhaps even more so to my friends. But this thread seems a bit petty....


Might I ask what the proverbial straw that broke the camels back was?
