Actually it seems kind of ironic that Maboul is the one correcting grammar. Most of his posts (from what i've seen) lack proper sentence structure, spelling and grammar. No offense or anything.
At least no one is talking in numbers and symbols (like many have done on the forum before).

Oh FUUUUUUUU...(!)
Technically, a grammar nazi is a separate class from a spelling nazi, so at least he isn't some abomination that is a member of both classes--or is he?

While I don't mind being called out for shitty grammar and spelling because as a native English speaker I should know better - but on a whole, I personally find correcting grammar and spelling on a band's message board anally retentive at best. Sorry Pooter and Malboul.

I agree to an extent. I think either of the two mentioned should start a topic, and then that topic may be used as a place to post all corrections, in the case that corrections must be posted.
As an aside, at least there aren't arguments that devolve into an endless critique of grammar and spelling, a phenomenon common on the many lesser message boards.

And thankfully there haven't been any people posting in txt speak in a long, long time. Now that was an annoyance worthy of correcting on the spot and incurring some light flaming.

To be correct, I'm actually an "If I/it/he/she were" nazi. This is the only common error that my french mind can spot.

Hey Maboul, I know you're really proud of yourself for being a Nazi but perhaps you can expand your French mind and learn the difference between an admin and a mod.

no
He put on a turn-down collar, a black bow, and wore his Sunday tail-coat. As such, he looked spruce, and what his clothes would not do, his instinct for making the most of his good looks would.

Defined a little more formally, "escape velocity" is the initial speed required to go from an initial point in a gravitational potential field to infinity with a residual velocity of zero, with all speeds and velocities measured with respect to the field

One of the problems back around PTB's release is that some radio rip became quite popular on P2P and download sites as the real track, rather than a low quality rip. So, we, the forum, have been against putting direct download links to the Chem's music since.
It is just as easy to make a request, and if the requester is a reputable member of the forum and fan, then he/she should get a download by email.
