Najwalaylah is a former Shadowbane player who has been dotting t's and crossing her eyes since 2003.
She currently keeps trying to think about playing the game again, but nothing happens.
Pet Peeves
I have a police evidence locker full of apostrophes I have confiscated from people who think that every instance of the letters i, t, s must have one.
The only people who make me fear more for the happy future of the Human Race as a sentient species are the people who never put an apostrophe in "its".
It's really simple. It is. If it is "it is", it get gets its apostrophe. If it's just the possessive form of "it", it isn't entitled to one.
If it's "it has", then we may safely write "If it's got an apostrophe, that's okay".
/groan
I am not a grammar Nazi. I am... a grammar Confessor. (For grammar, read also "spelling", "punctuation", "usage"...)
"Nuh kry'blava kham khala tha'l, sa qhat Nkurakarin vraji qhe bhaka'khan khal'iq." ("My sacred task is to burn them all, so that the Dragon may know the worthy by the flames.")
