Wow, this is embarrbuming. I’m going to have to compile these and fix them over time. The content is very modular and involves searching through a lot of code to fix, so please be patient.

(****ing hell.)

Haha, I can understand that, gotta be pretty ****ty. Have fun.

I found numerous mistakes in the description of the community forum “Internet Confessional”.

First, it says “its” instead of “it’s”.

Second, there is a comma missing after the “you”.

Third, it says “your conscious” instead of “your consciousness”.

Fourth, the name of the forum is not capitalized.

Here is a screenshot with all the mistakes circled.

The forum wasn’t made by the site’s staff, but since it is now an actual part of the game, I think I deserve my E-Peen™ for finding these mistakes.

Thank you, that is all.

At least change it for whoever did it, I can’t stand looking at it.

In a later chat with Drrty, you can respon with

But…there’s no way you could’ve have known that…

.. and from her…

Making me like some kind of RENEGADE?! Some kind of LOOSE CANNON?!?!

... with the player response using “look”. I semi-think these, at least the first one, have been posted before, though…

AND from the next court hearing (this might’ve been pointed out with the Digi-Vasect thing I remember reading here)...

I would like introduce to the court…my most recent sTalk log with Ms. Cop74!

... missing a “to”.

Also, with one of the Junk items… <checks alts after getting through with the above> Wait, it’s gone! Hm, whatever. The point I’d’ve made with it is that, along with the internet/Internet incosistencies (even among non-”personal” sources), there’s the matter of sentences that partly warrant a question mark due to and additional phrase, such as “blahblahblah declaratory statement, won’t you.” sorts of things. MOst of it isn’t inquisitive, but the extra bit changes it like a vaginoplasty changes a man… kinda.

NOTE: might removes redundancies if I feel embarrbumed by their presence

*sigh* Didn’t switch back to my main before posting; tricksy header images. Anyway, a minor, trivial matter, but when it’s revealed that Nordstrom is not the nationality he’s claimed, the exclamation mark is italicized along with his proper possesive pronoun…. thing. Is that intended to be that way? I’d bumume it is, but, again, bringing forth any and everything.

Alrighty, now my concern is justified: In the cinematic after contacting Gunman after pwning the Pentagon, the question mark after “attacked” is italicized, but the question mark after “robots” isn’t. INCONSISTENCY!

From the chat with him before all that:

The Lonely Gunman Posted:

I am Fully Enmeshed in This Teledildonic Suit and I Require My Right Hand to Coax out Sperm.

Should “out” be lowercased like that? I can understand it being a preposition (is it?), but it seems big enough to capitalize. Still, “am” is a verb and isn’t, and I don’t have a quote on-hand capitalizing “from” (wait, I did save (some) conversations to MS Word), so this may be a very moot point.

The Lonely Gunman Posted:

I Have a Link for Top Secret Sentrillion Robotic Forum[/spoilers]

Again, prolly a moot point, but a seemingly missing “the” and no punctuation. In both these cases, his activity at the time and his closing remakrs (rampant punctuation) might excuse this as in-character.

MOAR, DAMN YOU! I MUSKT PROST MOAR!

I guess you could just say I see life through rose-colored glbumes. But you know what’s like, right? <wink>

A response to that bubble boi; I’m bumuming an ALL-CAPS rhetorical response didn’t include a question makr due to just being all cpaital letters and spaces. Do like all the meta-references in that convo, though.

MOAR:
From the post-Nordstrom-Sentrillion-revelationchat sTalk conversation with Shallow

Yeah. They’ve distributing virus-like programs all over the Internet!

They’re payloads for Sentrillion, aren’t they!

The first is missing a word, the second is another question mark concern (esp. since you’ve used ”?!” (thank you for that order) in other place/s). *sigh* I keep feeling/fearing that this has all been brought up before, but I’m still too lazy (or is it too involved with the game?) to look into it (at least as far as this thread’s concerned).

OH: And in the IDC with the ‘bots, “Incit” should be ALL-CAPS’d as it in in the actual INCIT, which still has some parts of the page reading “Incit”.

Ok, haven’t seen this one pop up yet..

Gays in Recovery Posted:

Although this forum is intended for “reformed” homosexuals to discuss the various joys and difficulties bumociated with their exodus from gayhood, it’s largely devolved into a flagrant and flamboyant meet market.

Talk about your conversion or just hook up with other young ex-gay singles…to talk about Jesus, of courth!

It should be meat market.
