I was aghast that in the twelve days since this thread started, OP has received zero merits.  I was preparing to fix that...

...but then, I noticed that OP ends most sentences with two periods.  And the topic title has a lopsided stray space inside quotation marks, only on one side.  And... and...

What gives?



When I become forum administrator,* I will permaban anyone who fails to conclude a declaratory sentence with a period.

https://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/10/world/europe/period-full-stop-point-whatever-its-called-millennials-arent-using-it.html

Come to think of it, the “nuke user” button was invented for this reason.

One period, Eddie.  Or do you double your periods in protest against that moronic trend?  Lulz..  Perhaps I should try it myself..

Also to be nuked:  Anyone who writes contractions without apostrophes.  ’Tis the cant of illiterates.


* I am undecided on what to do about the global pandemic of noun modifiers.

Some kind of spell check like tool with a score..
If your writing doesn’t score a 70% or whatever, it won’t let you post..

Could also help users LEARN English better/faster by forcing them to put effort into correcting their writing.
Have it with the change suggestions and such so it helps them fix it..

Would put a good dent in rapid posting shitposters too.. Almost even like a bot filter..

Imagine if all the spam on this forum suddenly had to meet a grammar score standard, lmao..
It could possibly be revolutionary in posting quality improvement..
What percentage of shitposts on this forum would even come close to like a 30% grammar score?
It could wipe out so much utter trash..

Many shitposts I see, I can hardly even believe are created by humans at all..
Even low end chat bots are much better..

I don't know man...  Sounds kind of racist to me.  I'm sure there are lots of brilliant people with good ideas and contributions but English is not their first language.  Maybe some people dismiss them or don't want to read what they have to say as a result, but I don't think excluding those users from posting because they speak a different language is a positive development.  As others have stated, you wouldn't have been able to make this thread with your ending sentences like this.. 

I rarely (is this my first time?) pull the race card, but it seems appropriate here.  If we're going to focus on censoring individuals here, I think we should be more focused on censoring lies and attacks, not grammar.

Notwithstanding, this is not an English forum for learning English grammar. In as much as your post can be understood and it carries some weight, you are good to go. Grammar and others are just added advantage and not  prerequisites.
<snip>

At some points we fail to understand the purpose of the group we are into. It happens every and not only in this forum. It is obvious that OP has forgotten the main aim of this group and if given the opportunity to be an admin, he will end up implementing what will not help the group.

You would have better suggested that everyone who doesn't have a bitcoin address in his profile shouldn't post here. It means the person doesn't own, use or believe in bitcoin. Something like this is making more sense.
