Total Posts: 1189 | I'm coming up on 2 years here at the forum. I decided to check my first post to see what it was like and guess what? I don't spell things wrong. Now, this was the first forum I'd ever used, yet I was still better at half the people here at being literate. Seriously, get a brain.
Here is my post:
does anyone know how i can make a map?
i can write one out like so:
0,2,2,0,2,2,2,1,1,3
0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,3
0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,3
0,0,0,0,0,2,2,2,0,0
only really big.
I tried writing to the ti-os's matrices, but they got to big (need to be about 150x150).
Does anyone know any way to make a level like this? Particularly overhead rpg maps.
thanks
I may not have capitalized everything but I'll be damned before I let misspellings make me look like an idiot. All of you should too.
Anyone else have an anniversary coming up?

It's mostly about effort. Most people just like to be able to type as fast and as effortlessly as they can speak.
The spoken language came before the written one.

Spoken language may have come first, but we've had a written language for thousands of years, I don't think there's anyone that old around.

Total Posts: 96 | Nah, but what I'm saying is that the written language has a lot more problems than the spoken one. We never really figured out how to spell things phonetically, as with other languages, we just sort of made up spelling (Which is really bad, because it's mostly why a lot of people can't spell). Plus, the rules of written grammar are constantly changing and are under debate (Oxford comma, anyone?).
