User talk:GW-Carmine

I moved your page to the correct name, User:Carmine. Welcome to the wiki :) &mdash; Skuld 16:22, 3 October 2006 (CDT)

Haha, way to go, me... Thanks! Carmine 16:25, 3 October 2006 (CDT)

Notes on when the boss spawns go in the boss article, not the skill article. --Fyren 06:12, 8 January 2007 (CST)

Passage scrolls
Do not drop in normal mode as far as I know.. &mdash; Skuld 13:14, 31 May 2007 (CDT)
 * The page for passage scrolls already says they do, and my party received one just a couple days ago.--Carmine 13:16, 31 May 2007 (CDT)
 * To my knowledge, they do not drop in NM. Readem (talk *contribs ) 14:00, 31 May 2007 (CDT)
 * And now I have proof: [[Media:Carmine-NM-PassageScroll.jpg]].--Carmine 13:29, 2 June 2007 (CDT)

Spelling Error Correction
Thank you for correcting my spelling errors. (: Cookieaddictedmonster 15:35, 25 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Wow, your a real stickler on grammer, huh?--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 15:32, 21 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Too Bad he can't be bothered to check if his grammar facts are correct. "It's" can be used as "it is" or (in my case) "it has". If you're going to criticize someone on their grammar at least do a proper job of it. Personally, I just think you need to get a life instead of checking grammar on User Pages of a Game Wiki.--Thor79•[[Image:User-thor79.png]]•Talk 19:05, 21 September 2007 (CDT)
 * That basically represents the same thing. I almost exclusively cleanup articles, and my comments regarding grammar were to be helpful, not to criticize.  I'm sorry that wasn't clear.--Carmine 21:20, 21 September 2007 (CDT)
 * If you're going to be helpful...link to the page where people make the mistake...don't assume they can read your mind. Your helpful comments were apparently about another page that I edited besides my userpage, but I have no idea which page that is so I had to assume you meant my user page. I still have no clue what page you are talking about.--Thor79•[[Image:User-thor79.png]]•Talk 23:37, 22 September 2007 (CDT)
 * After digging through your contributions I finally found the page I assume you were talking about: Slavers' Exile. You can see from the reactions you get to your "helpful advice" that people take it as criticism most of the time (from reading your contributions). Do us a favor and only comment on the talk pages of people who commit this terrible crime more than once. If they show repeated use of improper grammar then perhaps they need to be reminded, otherwise just correct it and move on. Thank You.--Thor79•[[Image:User-thor79.png]]•Talk 23:54, 22 September 2007 (CDT)

I think you should both drop this issue. We do care about spelling here, as evidenced by Misspellings, but seriously - who's benefitting here? Just your egos? No one needs to prove to anyone else that "It's" is correct or not in its usage, no pun intended. If it's such a big issue that you need to dig through user contribs, use sarcasm, look it up on official grammar sites, etc. then this is blown a bit out of proportion. It is just spelling and grammar after all, and content is more important than that.

Carmine - I understand that you're trying to help the Wiki's articles, but remember that the Userpage is, well, the Userpage. It's theirs to do what they want with, and it's not really other users' place to point out spelling and grammar mistakes; it may seem helpful advice from you but it is not always taken that way. (ie. someone calling you "grammar police" or a "stickler" is an issue.) Like Thor said: if someone consistently repeats the same grammar or spelling mistake, a friendly reminder may be in order. Otherwise it's not really worth pointing out to them...

Thor - I can understand that you might be pissed over someone criticizing how you write on your personal Userpage. But when it gets to the point that such things as "You need to get a life" and "Do us a favor..." are said, that should be a signal that it's developing into a needless and pointless argument. There was no irreparable damage done and Carmine has apologized to you already. In my opinion, that is good enough; I'm not sure what else you hope to achieve. (T/C) 00:19, 23 September 2007 (CDT)
