Forgive him.... He knows english perfectly well, he just seems to think that people needing to "Translate" his posts is necessary. Once he turns around 9 or 10, I think He'll start to grow up.*Check-Mate* wrote:Wow....could you speak any less english...you know it was very difficult to understand what you were talking about.....Why don't you try re-reading your posts to see if they make any sense before posting.486 player wrote:I've VERY low treshold and it Hurts dost I look or not!

Meh, let me give it a spin, Splod-486 player wrote:I've VERY low treshold and it Hurts dost I look or not! Fourtanetly aneshtic plasters are invented.
"I have a very low threshold for pain, and it hurts no matter when I look at it. [Trans: The meaning behind this may be "it doesn't matter if I look at it or not"] Fortunately, there are such things as anestetic plasters. {Trans: Anistetic plasters-a slap on bandaid type doo-hicky that directly injects painkillers into ones system upon taking a shot-at least I assume so, never seen any. ]"

I'm not a spammer but, I've written many times that I HAST born in '80! It's Dog's readed-below-lines-misunderstand. I started to use 'thou's in grade 1 o' high school. If English had a word to speak to single person, I'd use it.
Those plasters are available in drug-stores.
English doesn't translated by word to word . That's what people thinks asbergers wants to. They're so frank.Thunderdog wrote:he just seems to think that people needing to "Translate" his posts is necessary.

can you guys give it a rest? 486 player posted a topic about this and no-one seemed to object then. he is using old english because new english is fucked up. in fact, anyone who has had to lean english as a language will agree: english makes no use of logic or rules. if you want to complain about this, don't do it in the needles topic.

486/JTA: FWIW, I was totally joking about making it a "bannible offence" (I get about 2 PMs a day from Wally asking me to ban TD so consider it an inside joke) and yes, I know how to speak old English perfectly-hell I studied it for half a year. I don't mind Thou or Dost or Thee (being a spanish student I understand his plea-at least in spanish we have a difference between Tu/Usted (singular you) and Ustedes (plural you)), but 486 player doesn't even use proper English grammer-he just rambles on in his own way expecting everyone else to take the time to translate it into something that makes sense.
So essentially, I disagree with his language for the same reason I disagree with 133753@|<, it just makes reading harder for no apparent logical reason. (FWIW, the English mind can derive the context of "you" in either plural or singular form in a paragraph with no problem-much like a spanish person can know the difference between es (it is) and es (is it?) by tone of voice in spoken language)
However, if 486 would speak in modern English grammer (I'll assume it's his original language so it should be inherent) I have no problem with thee and thou.
