Thanks guys for you're helpful input

john9blue - gimil and i have thought a lot about this and we have already decided to let the reporters do their own checking of spelling and grammatical errors Thankyou for your interest however

And yes Kotaro, we do have 1 editor and that would be me The Editor-in chief

[Kotaro]

A FAILURE EDITOR!

Last question.

When I entered College, I knew very little about the actual Journalism process. As I went through my first semester, I learned a lot, not only about the process, but mostly about the different styles of writing with each report.

My question to you is, can there be Global writers, that simply write about whatever they want? Ie, oneday they write up something in opinion, the next day they follow an interesting thread, etc.

[owenshooter]

I think I'm going to go.

This place isn't nearly as friendly as I thought it would be.

*Utters a quick prayer to Owenshooter, thanking him*

I believe at least 1 editor would be nice, Sammy-boy. The reason for this is, A) Spell Checking does not solve everything, and B) Through experience, I've noticed that some writers use words that seem right, when they aren't to other people. It's not the difference between whether or not the word is right, it's what they think is proper usage. Take That last little tif between John and Prowler; Prowler think he's right, John think he's right, and technically, they both can be right, but which word usage is better and more fluent for a paper?

Just a suggestion.

first, thanks for thanking me... i appreciate it...

secondly, if you are going to blast people on grammar, spell checking, writing and usage. you should learn the difference between think and thinks. as in, "john THINKS he's right", not "john THNK he's right"... good luck with that... and stick around prowler, this isn't such a bad place. i enjoy browsing it, and it seems like it is going to be a cool thing once it gets going. they have some great ideas. and believe it or not, they have ONE EDITOR!!!-0

No problem. Look forward to reading this.

I think editorials might be funny, too. Like I said, I probably don't have time to write them, but like others have said, Fruitcake's thread is about as close as we've gotten to such a thing.

[samuelc812]

Interesting concept Kotaro, I'll talk with my colleague's and see what they think

Thanks for the suggestion

Owen, explain to me what would be wrong with one thorough editor

No problem. Oh, and I apologize to your supreme-ness that my quick, 5 second typing is not good enough for you, nor is it perfect. I'll be sure to quadruple check every time, just in case you are watching.

actually The Prowler is always correct

the differences in the interperation of words shouldn't create too many problems Kotaro as we all scramble for our English/Amercian dictionaries... or more commonly in Flame Wars our Candian/Amercian dictionaries

prehaps eventually the publication could include a section such as letters to The Editor for serious comment

[owenshooter]

Owen, explain to me what would be wrong with one thorough editor

no, i agreed with that!!! that is how it should be... ONE EDITOR. you know the old sayin, "too many cooks..."-0

[gimil]

Right kids, grow up. If you wanna discuss grammar, spelling or anything that isn't on topic to this thread then feel free to start a new topic to discuss the subject elsewhere.

Kotaro, owenshooter, TheProwler, deliaselene do me a favour and try and jsut stick on topic. Owen I know you get off on topic hijacking but could you keep it in your pants this time round

[JOHNNYROCKET24]

good idea.....I just dont have the time to help with this....not on a daily basis.

That's why we made it Fortnightly

[theconquerer1995]

What about someone to report from the Cheating and Abuse Forum?

I'd gladly take a job of that if it was made!

[owenshooter]

Owen I know you get off on topic hijacking but could you keep it in your pants this time round

oh, you mean like the post right above yours where i agree with having one editor? maybe it is the time zone, but as usual, you are late to the party... now can you please stop flexing your mini mod muscle and let us enjoy the evolution of this thread? thank you...-0

[Natewolfman]

This will be great once it starts up I would offer to help but as of right now im all tapped out with many CC based projects, good luck getting the great talent to start this up and ill be sure to sign up for it when it starts

We have thought about it, but we are not here to give cheater's and abuser's the attention they are so desperately seeking. The section would only list people who have been banned, and that doesn't make for a very interesting read sorry. We need to be putting these people to shame not making them out to be celebrities Thankyou for the suggestion though
