The sub-header under the "Kamelot Live" link reads: "News and disussion for Kamelot live appearances and concerts" ; the sub-header under this topic, "Feedback & Suggestions," reads "Place for critc, rants, and everything you don't like here"

WELL...I dislike grammatical errors! THrant.gif In my humble opinion, their presence detracts from the overall credibility of the forum. If any administrator has the time to fix them, please do! Thank you very much in advance! smiley2.gif

Grammatical errors? Aren't they typoes?

Fail.
khanstruck
Grammar is defined as, "The system of rules implicit in a language" and comes from the Greek grammatik, or the feminine of grammatikos, meaning "of letters"...THUS, typos fall under the category of grammar!

On that note, why is there a period after the sub-header for "Off-Topic Discussions"...and none present anywhere else? :O

I didn't realize that until you pointed it out... Now it bothers me too. D:

I agree with Katie! Small errors may seem unimportant but I think it does detract from the page! This is, of course, coming from a perfectionist...When I was reading through the Ghost Opera booklet I found an error and stared at it for about 15 minutes... arrgw15x18.gif

+10000. *hi-fives fellow grammar Nazi*

... although I utterly fail at being a grammar Nazi, given that I didn't notice any of those before you mentioned them. LOL. xD

Anyway, I agree that they should be fixed ASAP so that the front page becomes grammatically perfect and the forum in general gains further awesomeness points. :D

@Heather: What error did you find in the GO booklet? I think I was just so annoyed with the font, I haven't actually read it properly to this day. laugh.gif

I doubt many people will notice this...

Errgghh, the font in the GO booklet is just "O.o -.-" worthy. >_>

It's not so much the style as it is the color scheme. It's bad when you can't read the lyrics because they seem to blend into the background.

laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif Thank you for the agreement, Heather! Yay for perfectionism! And Naz, as your fellow Grammar Nazi, I forgive you! Also, I attribute the errors' largely-unnoticed status to the obscenely small font. But yes! There is always room for increased awesomeness! THE LIMIT FOR AWESOMENESS DOES NOT EXIST!

Sadly, I have to agree sad.gif Why does it seem like a lot of the moderators/administrators aren't very active on here? I've read older topics on the forum, and they seemed to play a much larger role in the forum dynamic then o.O

rotfl.gif The spelling mistake in that post just topped it off completely.
