Contractions are common and correct in informal writing: they represent the pronunciation of informal speech. They are not generally used in a formal style.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to defer to Mr. Hillsy on this point.
To whit, I think informal English is probably acceptable on this messageboard.

Speaking for myself, I should like to see the boardwide adoption of Standard British English.
However, as the board itself appears to be based somewhere in the hindmost regions of one of the Provinces, I fear that is hardly likely to happen.
I shall just have to practice what I preach and TOLERATE
the numerous vulgar Americanisms that are bound to crop up as a result.

sorry, I meant liek-minded.


come play WoW!


there are a few of us who play on various servers.

if you want to, come play Horde on Mal'Ganis!

if you're going to sign up again, please let me know. there is a refer-a friend program :D


I play Wii and 360 usually every evening, so it wouldn't hurt to add another game to the fray. I'll be sure and let you know since there's a referral program, and I'm guessing that probably gets you some free play time.

I think I'd like to be known as a "vulgar Americanism"! Though, I do like to say "shite".
