als Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Anybody notice that we can't use our apostrophes (') when we are at our guild.. I mean its been bothering my guild for monthes! I don't know about others! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Yes, everybody noticed that problem. Also, they are not always blocked. I think TNT would like to see their members become more literate ;). Just kidding! We all hope it will be fixed soon. This topic has been edited by a member of staff (Xepha). The topic was posted in the wrong area.

antiaircraft Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 For grammar freaks like me, this is unbearably annoying, to the point where I don't really do posting on guild boards much. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~*MidnightMoonFiretail*~ Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I always post in the guild a lot. It's what I do. I haven't had to use an apostrophe yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torridity Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 It can get pretty annoying. A way to remedy the problem is to train yourself to use this thing ` (beside your 1 button, at the top of the keyboard) instead of an apostrophe. Then your posts won't be blocked, and you can use contractions freely and legibly. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smumpkins Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Torridity, that's a great idea! I think what I'll do instead, though, is type the `, copy it and than just do ctrl + v each time I want it (my left pinky doesn't work too well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Well I actually use that key for some coding marks, so it's probably not a good idea to train myself to use it... meh, if it stops me having to twist my grammar, then it's worth it.

torridity Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Glad I could help. Really? What kind of coding is it used in? I don't think I've ever seen it in CSS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I use for some custom Linux terminal commands. :yes: I guess I really shouldn't, but it was the most convenient key available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~*MidnightMoonFiretail*~ Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Funny-it seems to work fine for me. I can use apostrophes when posting in my guild. :eh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Well I suppose it's not a 100% occurrence (I remember being able to post apostrophes once or twice), but that just makes it all the weirder... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~*MidnightMoonFiretail*~ Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Well, I'm sure that someone noticed it and sent a bug report to TNT. I hope. :eh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 TNT has known about it for quite some time now (I think it's actually been mentioned in an editorial, although I'm not sure). They just haven't gotten around to fixing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
