I'm more enraged by the you're your there their than "defiantly." What really burns my ass besides a flame 3 feet tall is when people say "very unique", "extremely unique", "incredibly unique" etc. Unique means one of a kind. If something is one of a kind it's one of a kind. It can't be very one of a kind or extremely one of a kind or incredibly one of a kind etc.
Back on subject I wouldn't hold my breath for any new content.
@Kaz I'm so excited! I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!!
@Starr621 http://www.magickeys.com/books/riddles/words.html Enjoy these as well: HOMONYMS are words that sound alike but have different meanings. Homophones are a type of homonym that also sound alike and have different meanings, but have different spellings.
HOMOGRAPHS are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings. Heteronyms are a type of homograph that are also spelled the same and have different meanings, but sound different.
WORDS THAT BOTH SOUND THE SAME AND ARE SPELLED THE SAME are both homonyms (same sound) and homographs (same spelling). Example: lie (untruth) and lie (prone); fair (county fair), fair (reasonable).
You have no idea @ShadowaceAz how many times I read this just to be as confused as the first time I read it...lol
Nope, he is still with us but dropped down from the highest guild to the middle and now to the lowest minimum one (180+ stars). And I get his frustration.
@Governator Will that update provide us with the 12 steps needed to overcome our NML addiction or assist us in seeking legal action for becoming addicted to the game?

@WellyLuga
He probably missed the short post by Kaz in between all the (to me very interesting) talk about words and grammar and everything.
