Thank you.It is a sad day for English speaking countries when the Dutch correct us on our grammar. Not true, you'd be surprised that those who learn English as a second language talk in a very proper tone. It's like when people who learn a different language learn the correct way to say everything instead of the slang. EDIT-As for the OP, I'd dig up the Grammar Police award, but I'm too lazy. Your instead of you're is no slang. Internet slang not counted because it'd be youre if you want to shorten it but still want to type correct. Their, there and they're, to confuse those is no slang; it's laziness from chatting too much. I don't care about these mistakes at all to be honest, not when reading the chat in game or on the forum (I accidently make them myself too when I type too quick). I've been chatting in English for a couple of years now and now I make the same mistakes as others although I still raise an eyebrow when someone types there instead of their. "He said it was theres." - "WHERES?!" It'd be different when I'm reading a book or this in game pop up. That's pretty sad, haha! I do think you're right though, Ballak. I spell a lot worse in Dutch than in English.
