Exclamation Grammar Police! Epinions.Com needs you!

I know that many think that the slowness of the site can only mean one thing, and it was very good of Epinions to let us down gently by putting up a Site Bug Notice. But...
We are aware of several bugs effecting the overall performance of the site. All members are experiencing slow page loads, and possible page time outs. We will resolve all performance issues as soon as possible.

ARRGGGHHH!!!



Affect: Produce an effect on (verb)
Effect: 1. Result, 2. Meaning, 3. Influence, 4. Goods or possessions (*Noun)
Accomplish or Produce (*Verb)


It's, Its. Then, Than. Affect, Effect. They're, There, Their. Too, To, two.

(just a pet peeve, kinda like a Chia Pet)

Hello Pamela--

Your subtle upbraiding of epinions' consistent bugginess, by complaining about its less than meticulous grammar, as though the ubiquitous regularity of the message has virtually blinded you to its distressing content, was...

[insert effervescent sound of tall, frosted glass being filled to concave capacity with Canada Dry Ginger Ale, from 3 or 4 feet above the glass...]

...Ooooooooh, so dryyyyyyyy... :beer:


::Snicker-Chortle::

Cheers ::*DINK*::

Jim
