hello, this is Verde. I'm here to inform the general public of a major problem in our community. Many times i have been browsing texture packs, blog posts, mods, you name it and have found users using certain words incorrectly. An example of which is:

user: haha your silly

or,

User: what is youre ign?

now, we don't have to have a Phd in English in order to understand that these words are being used incorrectly, and should be fixed to prevent further irritability. The correct usage of these words are as follows.

Your: used when referring to something someone owns, such as Your dog, or Your diamond pickaxe.

You're: this is an abbreviation of You are, not to be confused with the word above. an example of this word being used PROPERLY is:

wow, You're pretty good at finding diamonds, or good job at building that, You're pretty good at architecture.

please, for the sake of all people using these words properly, listen to me and use these words correctly. it is extremely annoying for others to put up with improper grammar. At least, i know it is for me. so do everybody a favor. it also doesn't hurt to drop a diamond or two so others can see.

Excuse me? I, like a proper gentleman, find joy when someone corrects me, because that means I can Improve on my projects, tasks, etc. So I corrected that mistake. Thank you for noticing it. but please, try and keep criticism constructive.

I will be honest i went a little too sarcastic and im sorry i just get sick of others (not you) who correct something stupid when im making my point.no i do not get it 100% who out there can all the time.the good thing about when someone corrects me on something little is it means i win but most of the time its just a cheap way out like here is a site moderators(blackftw) comments to my post "
I have to; if you're so illiterate that you don't capitilize your "I"s,"and this one as well
"
Also, between you and me, it's "you're", not "your". Your is possesive, you're means "You are". I do not own an a moderator, I AM a moderator" this is not good english but i did not attack him/her for it i simply put "your funny"(i know its wrong troll face) at second look this rant can help so the grammer police cant have a cheap way out so thank you and im sorry.
