Default RE: Off topic - rant

The problem with a thread like this is that the OP&rsquo;s comments will be examined for correctness by its very nature. The die is cast by the words written. And unfortunately for the OP there are grammatical errors in his very posts while he is chastising others for such infractions. Unknown to him. If one wishes to throw down the grammar gauntlet (on an RC tank forum for some reason), they should really spend the time to make sure that their condescension&rsquo;s are correctly parsed. If they do not have that capacity then they should have their posts proof read by others prior. It&rsquo;s a common tense for internet trolling. As obvious as the clumsy attempt to show their mastery of the usage of &lsquo;whom&rsquo; and the all too predictable escalation of vocabulary. Seriously, do you use the word &lsquo;<span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(251, 252, 255); ">crepuscular</span>&rsquo; on a regular basis? What is the intent in selecting that particular word? To show others that you know it and establish an intellectual high ground?<p class="MsoNormal"><o></o></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(251, 252, 255); background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; ">So I would challenge the OP to go back through his posts, add in commas where needed and fix the dangling participles. I would recommend a review of this website before making such posts.<o></o></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">http://www.grammarly.com</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(251, 252, 255); background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; ">All in all this is what the teeny boppers would call an epic fail of a thread.

While you are busy judging, you are also being judged.
