No. By the way, your shift key seems to be malfunctioning.

Silly Rabbit! Trix are for kids!

Someone was gonna say it eventually.

In more seriousness why not just ask the sales manager of TGC? They kind of have to keep track of stuff like that.

There are 5 users total. No one has ever seen any of my work so they didn't know I used the program.

@Grandma... Well, see I made this tennis ball as a placeholder for a logo on a website. I thought it would be pretty cool to give it eyes and a mouth. And well, that avatar is what came of it. Hehehe. I sorta miss Darth Tater though. He was my avatar for a long time

Maybe I'll put him in my signature *snif* EDIT: Guess the tennis ball beat him there

I also like to do that every word capping, but I go over all my stuff before I post it so, I never do it on the forums, only because its not the right way to speak English.

You're all wrong. There's 42 users total. 41 of those users are Lee Bamber's friends, and 1 of those users is Lee Bamber. Jk, it's more like 2 including Lee Bamber and Mike.

England made English. Hence the ENG as the first 3 words.

Roughly the same number as the number of copies of Dark Basic sold. I'm sure Lee Bamber would be able to give you a more precise value.

Americans speak a monopolised version of English, which they call American, and did in fact steal the language. But English is made up of many different languages anyway, including German and Latin, so all's equal really.

Just for the record, we don't call it American, (except to occasionally shorten it from American English, but that's pretty rare.). Don't worry

And we certainly didn't steal anything, did you want us to come up with a brand new language once we got here, from ENGLAND?

And I don't know what you mean by "monopolised", maybe you meant bastardized?

No. There are more Chinese here than English, and I'm sure in the US there's a large amount of immigrants too.

Isn't it annoying how the Brits spell color and armor with a U?

And as we are on spelling terms: The word "Firefox" is not included in Firefox's US spell check (default language) but is in the Swedish one

You realise that more than just English people went to America, right? I mean, yeah, some of the first few people were English in origin, but people from all nations went to America

Quote: "Isn't it annoying how the Brits spell color and armor with a U?"


I don't fully understand why we use Colour, seeing as though the latin root/origin is actually spelt color.

Firefox is in the US spell check for Firefox, you do have to make sure you're using a capital F though, it's a proper noun you know
