@neme

be strong, its not the first time you fight these methods, isn't it? golden rule, the first can pass, the second pays as twice.
i'm actually sad to see how things are going around, good aspects this game had vanished while the worse trends are still alive through 3 gaming generations, truth be told, to strike back on those idiots should have no limts nor moral restrictions.

 

in b4 "private server screenshoted, we never loose".

 

yes dolan knows for sure that the pvp happens on forum and not ingame!! he has a 24/7 live stream of ingame events online!!

 

i think i'm going to "loose" my mind the next time someone misspells the word lose.

a man-eating tiger on the loose and a new england patriots quarterback who rarely loses provide perfect examples of the difference between lose and loose. what am i talking about? read on.

"lose" is a verb. you can lose your wallet, lose a game, or (like me) lose your mind. paul simon even thought of fifty (well, five, but i guess that didn't make as good a title) ways to lose a lover.

a bet you're unlikely to win is a losing proposition. if you're playing scrabble and your opponent is winning, that means you're losing. you're not loosing. no matter how lopsided the score, you can take comfort from the fact that you're never, ever loosing a game--unless the board is stuck in a tree branch after a tornado and you're knocking it loose.

you can be a winner or a loser. but you're only looser if you just practiced yoga.

"loose" is sometimes a verb and often an adjective and, increasingly, a pain in the neck to proofreaders, editors, and perfectionist grammar nazis everywhere. because almost no one uses it correctly anymore.

you have loose change in your pocket. loose clothes don't fit very tightly. the dog slipped his leash and has gotten loose. if you're loosing chaos on the world, you're wreaking havoc. you're only losing chaos if your girlfriend's name is chaos and she wants to break up.

a zookeeper can lose a siberian tiger. (the tiger might die, or zookeeper might forget which cage he put the tiger in.) or a tiger might get loose (i.e. escape), as happened at the san diego zoo in december 2007. a zookeeper can even loose (i.e. set free) a tiger by opening the cage door, but, well, that wouldn't be a good idea.

as grammar nazis go, i'm a fairly benign one. i don't get bent out of shape when the express lane at the supermarket is labeled "ten items or less" instead of "ten items or fewer." (arguably they're both correct.) the annoyingly widespread habit of putting an apostrophe in every word that ends in s, whether it needs it or not, does bring my blood pressure to a boil. (on a sign in town: "used car's for sale" used car's what for sale?) but with proper medication i keep that under control.

loose vs lose, however, threatens to make my brain implode.

i'm not sure what happened in 2005 to cause 80% of the english-speaking world to suddenly forget the difference between loose and lose, loosing and losing. i never noticed this error before. suddenly it's everywhere. even professionally edited newspapers and magazines and internet articles are starting to make the mistake.

the problem has become so endemic that i automatically flinch as soon as i see the word "loose" in a manuscript or student paper. i expect it to be wrong, and it usually is. even on the rare occasions that it’s not used incorrectly, my pencil still instinctively moves to cross out and correct the offending word, and it takes my brain a second to catch up and realize, "oh, wait, you got it right."

what puzzles me most about this trend is that "loose" is such a common, useful word. if we absolutely have to have a widespread misspelling of lose, at least let it be something like luse. that way we won't lose loose. (there, i've loosed luse on the world, in the hope that it will stop us from losing loosing. for extra credit, please diagram that sentence.)

i'm curious about pronunciation. are there people who learned to read phonetically who see a phrase such as "loose change" and hear in their heads the pronunciation for "lose change"? for the moment, at least:

"loose" rhymes with the end of caboose.
"lose" rhymes with ruse.​

so please, please, for the love of all that's holy, lose that extra 'o'. unless you're actually, intentionally using the word loose. but i fear we nitpickers are fighting a “loosing” battle here.

attention: this post contains the word **** but it isn't intended as a way to start another shoah but only for educational purpose /!\ ​

 

i 'm not really into reading but i think he wants to say this and i kinda have to agree that guys almost all of you are 22+ years old and you cant get the difference

​

 

i make a lot of mistakes on my posts, and you decide to go with that one, you are very dirty, sir.

 

it's not only you, nearly everyone. from time to time i try to remind people that they made a mistake.

 

u made a mistake by trying to fix dat mistake, sir lancelot, gl fighting those nonegzistant enemiez of urz!â¬

 

and you are ... from ? england ?
or some british colony ?

no he is just a ******** with lots of free time

 

neme go to sleep *****.

 

completely agreeing with you , seems to be that pve master that can't win a pvp without having an advantage of level or stuff.

just need to read his message to know that when people catch up he can't do something and he has to quit.

i would like to see this guy after more than one month on a server , i guess it could be funny !

 

"equal term" please. your cp never was on "equal" term with anyone at server start. you can't play the gear/level advantage on kardi's group when your cp had the exact same advantage up until orbis, when your cp decided to quit because they lacked "competition".

 

i might be a ********, but making the same mistake over and over makes you a ******.

 

what did you expect when 90% of the population was coming from private server **** ? it still was a hella fun. if you expected a server with 10% of the population able to do smth with their hand if given the chance.. well you were being delusional friend.

 

anyone frapsed last night mad pvp fun ?

@7th cp - nice vid guys keep them comming.

 

will be nice if someone of ur daggers fraps it, insane the dmg that they do.

and the hero skills, made huge difference, gf anyway.

 

probably u speak for some other dagger cuz i was dead 90% of the fight
(and everyone knows my blind othel doesnt make dmg)
