Does that now get the record for longest post on the site?

Part of me wants to say this is stupid, but part of it seems kind of clever. Almost is like Clue. It was definitely SchonyGal with the hockey stick in the locker room... ;)

Aw hell, what have I got to lose? Put me in.

;) (Even though I have no clue what you're talking about)

Assassin is clever. Even masked his IP under a confirmed proxy.

I'm still not in. Mods are like SWAT. It's our job to take you out ;)

Note - the original rules were edited by Assassin tonight :D

Actually no, Schony did the typical sexist way of writing which used to be the grammatically correct way to write things.

Not saying you are old or anything Schony, but in her day of schooling she was probably taught everything takes the masculine form, therefore she automatically puts His instead of his/her IP address.

Also notice in the Assassin's very first post the first few rules are written using HIS/HE/HIM and their last few rules are written in a He or She way.

^^this^^

Believe me, my gender reference was exactly what Skyline pointed out. Proxies don't tell us gender. What my post should have told everyone is that this person is smart enough to know how to mask their IP and write intelligibly.

Is it a joke? I dunno :think:

It is really another member we all know playing a game? I dunno. :?:

I sure as hell don't like the sound of this; "To cover my tracks in the murderous rampage that is coming, I have created a new account. There will be five police officers who are tasked with discovering my true identity before I kill everybody on this board."

Are we all going to end up on an episode of Criminal Minds?

I'm good at profiling. I'm in.

1. The police officers will be the next ten people who post the word "in" at the beginning of their post.


Assassin: which is it 5 or 10? You're already screwing up. Get your story straight.

It still is the grammatically correct way to write things. "His or her" doesn't flow as well. It's still technically all right, but... In writing, I never, ever use it. It makes things far too choppy and really disrupts prose. It's still preferred to use only "his" for that reason, and honestly, as a woman I have no problem with it whatsoever and do not find it sexist at all. It's something employed in most languages, to simplify and therefore beautify them (and by simplification, I do not mean in vocabulary, but in... clunkiness? because I HATE vocabulary simplification to the extent that I've had professors ask me to write more simply in that regard lol whatever; this is college, and I should be writing with those words). I've never once thought of it as sexist, in the same way that I don't find the Romantic languages to be sexist by having masculine and feminine words.

Political correctness is a tad ridiculous at times.

Not now really, if you know the gender you put it, but if you don't, at least in the 2009 MLA format, you need to put both of them, it may not flow right, but it is the true grammatically correct way to do so.

I'm in a class were we have a book about MLA format and it has been updated for 2009.

People still do it of course, but it is the wrong way to write now.

could be one who barely posts. or could be one who posts a lot. one could show interest or only post when needed. mind games are a foot. and i'd hope that the words chosen by the thread creator was in an attempt to create a literary pull. to use adjectives that describe mood, and are used to set a tone, and story.

I will be working vigilante, and intend to make a citizen's arrest at some point.
