Of course.

Dammit . I am unworthy to be a DM...

Nah just hurl abusive characters at your PC's and you'll DM fine ^^

Why dost thou say this ?

It's 'sayeth', duh.
*Waits for Keris to yell at him*

Actually that sounds about right to me.

[Keris]

It would be "say(e)st" actually. But as Kopaka has already formed the second person singular of "do" ("dost" or "doest"), I don't think you need to add a suffix to the second verb. So Kopaka was probably correct the first time round.

Also, the -(e)th suffix is used for the third person. "Thou say(e)th" is incorrect, but "he say(e)th' is correct. The (e)s indicate that they were optional in literature, spelling wasn't standardised for Early Modern English, and the choice was often made in consideration of metre, including an e usually added a second syllable.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post...

You know that on the edit page, there is an option to delete your post, right?

I tryed that... For some reason it didn't work...

[Nehh]

Hmm. Can you use the one next to the edit button?

[Khaeta]

There's a box you have to check that says "delete this post" before you can click to delete it (so that you don't do it by mistake).

See? That's why you're annoying!
Also, next post is 616!
I bet it's Keris.

*Cancer giving glare*
Yes.... I do know....
I have been here for a good while and know a bit about editing posts. and I tried numerous times but for some unexplainable reason... It didn't work...

[Keris]

See? That's why you're annoying!

Well, you were the one who brought it up. I wasn't exactly going to yet you incorrectly correct someone.

Also, next post is 616!
I bet it's Keris.

Nah, Fayte grabbed it. Give it another 50 posts, I might manage that one.
Back in business after Fayte figured out how to delete a post.
And more posts are deleted, I suspect out of jealousy.

Hmm. Can you use the one next to the edit button?

The "Quote" one?

I have been here for a good while and know a bit about editing posts. and I tried numerous times but for some unexplainable reason... It didn't work...

You select "Delete Message", then hit the "Delete this Message" button. That's always works for me. If you're having further problems, post in Board/Site Issues.

EDIT: Yep, just tested it on an old post of mine, and it worked fine.

[Fawkes]

Heh, you've got 616 now, Keris.

[DoomITP]

Why hasnt anyone been talking in this thread much today? I mean this is an Abr thread.....*screams*

[memnarch]

Dude, it's the ABR thread. It gets lots of conversation when there are things being discussed that are interesting. Not much going on right now.

[The Gremlin]

Heh, you've got 616 now, Keris.

Clearly, somebody wanted it to be Keris, and so they deleted a post...OR THE BOARD REARRANGED ITSELF TO MATCH ALL LOGIC!!!
Wait...

EDIT: Yep, just tested it on an old post of mine, and it worked fine.

I see now. He deleted a post, which put him one post behind. He revealed his true form WILLINGLY! Crap, he must be mad.

No no, being mad is MY job

[X2]

No no, being mad is MY job

??? I've hardly ever seen you mad! ???

[Mina Kobold]

??? I've hardly ever seen you mad! ???

As in crazy, not angry. Besides I never said I was good at my job

.............Dot...

[X2]

.............Dot...

I've never seen you crazy either!

[Mina Kobold]

I've never seen you crazy either!

That's because I hide it so the beavers won't find me.
<_<
>_>
Besides it's just a job, if it was a hobby though...

[Keris]

Actually, the post I deleted was in the "Request an OotS Style Avatar" thread. I moved up to 616 because Fayte managed to delete his double post.

[X2]

Hey Mad Mask, can I have an arcana-rage Xartyve2 from you as an avatar?

[Mad Mask]

Hey Mad Mask, can I have an arcana-rage Xartyve2 from you as an avatar?

Of course.

[Green-Shirt Q]

Of course.

*swallows pride*

Um...while you're making avatars...You think you could make one for me too? One of Q in a cool, mischievous pose. Preferably without a colossal nose. Just a Mario-sized nose, please.

[DoomITP]

so you do mean colossal

[Lyinginbedmon]

so you do mean colossal

Gargantuan maybe?

[Khaeta]

Hey, don't knock plumbers. There are much more fun things to do. Like make short jokes .

EDIT: @Lying: Colossal is bigger than gargantuan (in D&D at least). So were you going for bigger or smaller?

[Shades of Gray]

Nah. Just diminuitive. With an enchantment that makes everything else go down to Fine - -

[Green-Shirt Q]

I just didn't want him to make the nose as big as his body, like he did when he made a Q avatar for himself. Smaller then that, but still big enough to be visable in OOTS style.
