Some people purposely make the same spelling mistakes over and over and they refuse to change it, this makes me angry. I thought you had to have literacy to be in here. It seems like we are dealing with kindergarteners who had left their picture book at the door.
Yes, I am a bit angry here, but my suggestion is, please shape up when it comes to literacy.
Here are a few tips on how to be a better writer.
1. Spell checking! Read things over more than once. If you do not have the time, please do not type. The computer is not going to bite you.
2. Read, read, read! Gaia truly is about the reading. Over half of you I bet 500 gaia gold that you do not actually read what is said and then you ask silly questions. (I am not serious about the bet, but you get my point)
3. On words or terms you truly do not understand, then, take it to the PMs.
4. When asking someone what's up, it makes you look like a toddler that doesn't know their directions. Up is a direction! By asking "what's up?" It shows poor grammar and I will tell you straight, if you ask me that, I will ask you where is your diaper. If you are in middle school to high school, please do me a favor and show me what you've learned in English class.
Leave the babies at the door.
Now that I am done venting off some anger, now, does anyone have anything to say about this? Oh and keep in mind of gaia rules. I am not trying to be rude here, I am just simply saying what is on my mind.

Ummmmm.... wow.
To say the least, I'm gonna say that mostly I agree with you.
However, "whats up?" is common American slang, there aren't many people who are going to apreciate such a rude comeback after trying to be kind.
And for #2, your literacy could use work! razz
"Over half of you I bet 500 gaia gold that you do not actually read what is said and then you ask silly questions." Is not a proper sentance.
If you are going to lecture on literacy and grammer, then expect some responces. biggrin
It should be worded like this:
I bet 500 gaia gold that over half of you do not actually read what other people say and then ask silly questions.
Just trying to help you so people take you seriously, because I know people don't take me seriously. biggrin
