No. I mean capitalisation.

You see... with many words... there are two ways of spelling said word:
The English way... and the wrong (american) way.
Using a "z" for "capitalisation" is the latter.

[Disclaimer: I have a very anti-american mentality, and I won't go into details as to why.]

I though they are wrong,but now I see it is very true for many players in Guild Wars and many people outside it.They just talk,talk,and talk,and make fun from other grammar,but they even don't know where is Croatia!! Ha!!

p.s. not many peoples from UK and SAD are s***id,but many are.I am sorry for some people that are really kind and smart enough not to make fun of some1 because his grammar.

Croatian,like Japan language are the hardest one,their grammar is hardest one,English is nothing,so don't think you are something special because you talk English since you are born!

Funny. If you want difficult, try Icelandic.

And for the record, while perhaps some might appreciate your attempts at using our language, there is no excuse for making a half-arsed job of it. If you mess up our language, irrespective of where you come from, you are likely to be mocked for it.
Use Yanman as a rolemodel or something. He does well enough.

I'll clarify something for you. I type about as fast as I speak, if I put my mind to it. As such, I also end up typing AS I speak. What comes from my mind, is put in through my fingers and ends up on the page is often rather different to what might be written in a novel or formal essay. Generally speaking I will tend to adhere to correct language structure, but there are a few conditions which fall under the category of minor exceptions. All of them involve my expressing through my text what I would actually be saying, were I telling you in person. Nuances of speech expressed in text form.
Because I will quite happily respond by starting with the word "because", I feel fully justified in typing such. As for the dots, those quite rightly represent pauses in my thought process, or written speech if you would prefer.
For what it is worth, even those such things you can find in published novels and the like, though they are typically quoted speech.
Given that it expresses more than adhering to perfection would, it is fully justified.

''It's retarded L.O.L'' would of been alright English, you've got me though. I shouldn't of added these characters '^^'; however, putting more mistakes into your post in some atteempt to remain superior when I wasn't even flaming you looks kind of retarded to me.

Its your choice what you personally find retarded. For me however, any expression of the "lol" phrase other than the words written out in full (and often even that) falls exclusively into that category.
And your emoticon seemed a bit bland besides. You didn't even include a mouth: ^_^

Quote:

Someone that states they can lock down a player with three other players is like someone that states the moon is made of cheese, there is no point in bothering to argue with it. It is silly and also funny; however, thanks for your attempt at trying to out smart me. You failed.

Its silly, but not to the extent that you are trying to express. As I attempted to succinctly explain to you, certain PvE bosses definitely require such treatment.
And as for your closing statement, its amusing but false. The typical response of one defiant and blindly assured of their own ability. I did make my point, which you even acknowledged, and as such I succeeded completely.

Any further attempts to defy being outsmarted?

More to the point of the thread however, I'm of the opinion that all has been said about the builds mentioned above as needs to be.

I type probably twice as fast as I think; however, I sometimes type what I'm thinking rather than correct grammar. You have to understand though, just because you have explained your reasons for your bad English, it does not make it justified. It is like being punched on the arm and killing the person, my mentality is that I'd kill the person but does that make it justified? No. Yes I can empathise, but that doesn't mean what you have done is correct. Many books are written with bad English (especially American ones). Quoting a book is no use, or an author. The fact of the matter is, your English in this thread is absolutely awful. Mine may be too but I'm not the one trying to score points with grammar. My main point was that it's retarded to even debate about skills when someone is using 3 to 1 player ratio. Your English is terrible and I know you have this pseudo-intelligent approach, but that's just it, pseudo.

Lol is a well known acronym for laugh out loud (on the internet anyway); therefore, you finding that retarded is just plain silly. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lol

Quote:

I go by logic for such things. Mentally retarded is not using one of the most well known acronyms on the internet to express ones emotion; however, using an unfair ammount of players vs one is something that a mentally slow person would do. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/retarded . Once again it is not about choice, I do not make up my own language and try justify it. I'm just going by the English language here.

Quote:

This is not only completely FALSE but if you re-read what has been written, you will find the person talking about using three players to kill one said ''guy'' and not ''boss''; therefore, even if you were right (which you arn't) about boss's needing three players to kill, it doesn't matter as he was NOT talking about boss's anyway.

Quote:

This is bad grammar then. I will explain why, in the English language three dots are known as ''continued'' and NOT ''pauses'' in thought process. I understand what you're saying; however, why should I be held responsible just because you have your own little language going on?

To justify my reasons for English being my primary language and not Croatian, well besides Chinese it is the most spoken language.

Can't win an argument with a person that has no logic and makes up his own language (you).

That's exactly what I thought Yanman.be. Nice to know someone is using his/her head, lol.

Powerblock is win too.

Hahahahhahahahhahah!!!!!
*starts rolling on the ground, laughing and pointing*
Sorry, had to get that out.... This build is a death trap. An enchantment corrupter can kill this in about 3 spells (corrupt enchant, shatter enchant, and any degen spell).

Trixz · Feb 27, 2007, 11:23 PM // 23:23

Back to the topic:

No, this build sucks.

Lord Oranos · Mar 02, 2007, 06:53 AM // 06:53

The build needs refining, but really, instead of just saying it sucks, try to add something positive, like maybe bringing minors because an assassin(even though he has 70 al) is pretty spikeable, outside of spamming FN(and it can still be done).

To be honest, I wouldnt bother with the Golden attacks as they are weaker than the hexed based ones... Its been awhile since Ive experimented with attacks, I remember a skill bar with something like

Shadow Walk, Siphon Speed, BSS, Shattering Assault, Impale....Or something like that, did some hefty damage.

Though Im sure the same effect can be achieved with death blossom, just without enchantment removal.
