This is an internet messageboard, not a scholarly journal!  Hell, even the worst post isn't half as bad as most of what is seen on a typical internet chat room.If mythusmage is really so concerned about proper writing then I would like to see him to give a complete sentence by sentence critique of my original post, which he so eloquently criticized.  While he's playing the role of the English teacher, he should also critique everyone else's posts.  (Perhaps Morris should appoint him as the official ENWorld language cop!) This is quite a personal attack.  Now, not only my writing, but also my mental capacities are being criticized.  Mythusmage is really taking this to a personal level!</blockquote>
