I've never actually played an mmorpg, but I'm curious. I might give it a shot if I could play with my fellow like-minded nerds. Instead of the regular kind of nerds.

sorry, I meant liek-minded.

nah unless you want to level your character higher than 60 you shouldn't need to. you would just be playing the old world instead of the new areas.

Not bad, but both 'your' and 'you're' in the second sentence should be in quotation marks.
Also, although this rule is often broken in modern English,
one should never start a sentence with 'And'.
As the one in the third sentence above is, in fact, superfluous,
I would dispense with it myself.

Much better! :wink:

Anyway, isn't bashing other people's literacy
liek teh Internets ekwivalant of Homosexualism or sumfink?
It seems like an awful leap of faith to me to simply assume that 100% of a bunch of guys who collect dolls are going to be even semi-literate, on top of which most computer geeks have at least one form or another of Assberger's going on ...

Parka, whilst I agree that 'more different than' is wrong, I would say that 'much more different' is also incorrect in this case, as there is no need to use comparatives in this sentence. I would suggest using 'very different to'.
