It's more like an internet acronym, which stands for: as far as I know.

Thanks.  :) Still, I think I'll just stick to the old-fashioned way of typing out the words in full.  :D

That's all right. Like, for example, I don't like to mix english and hungarian words. Some people use english words in their hungarian communication, but I'm not very fond of it.

BTW (means by the way, by the way :D), if you're looking for abbreviations or acronyms, google is your friend.  :cool:

Instead of Google, this link should be your friend for acronyms:

Ok, here you go:

Favourite: Reading
Authors: Philip K. Dick, Arthur C. Clarke, J. R. R. Tolkien, Douglas Adams, Isaac Asimov, George Orwell and others

I'd write "Favorites" in this context, especially that you have more favorites.

Lock, Stock and the Two smoking Barrels

The title is Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

but we're close to finish it

finishing it, IMO

Minor mistakes, but I thought it is worth mentioning.
What kind of game are you doing? How does it progress? You might get a sticky topic in Gameware, if it could be a popular game. ;)

I'm not that amateur!  :) I've been using the net before there even was a "net". Started out writing on the bulletin boards of Prodigy (which was an online network like Compuserve and AOL, before AOL joined the WWW) with a 2800 kbps modem. Aaaah, the good 'ole days... When kids where kids and McDonalds only served one size of fries...  :)

Sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound that way. ;)
And a nice internet past you have, too.

edit: one word too many.

Yeah, and a nice typo I have too, (where - were). Gonna go see if I can still edit it... Happened in college all the time. Even if I ran the spellcheck through there were always other typos not picked up by it. Once the teacher returned it saying, that it will be an A as soon as I correct all the typos.  :D

Right. :) First I wanted to write next to, but then I thought I'd make it a little clearer by stating the relative position (this being "left" of course), but it seems the "to" word was left there by mistake. Thanks for correcting.

You can always count on me to butt in.  :)

BTW,  :) have you discovered the wonderful world of Pratchett?

Tried to, several times. But I never got the hang of it. Maybe I was too young at the time. So I might give it a shot again.
Right now the only fantasy for me is Lord of the Rings. And in terms of comedy, the Hitcheiker's Guide to the Galaxy (it's not a fantasy I know, but still). The latter I like in almost every form. Almost. The film wasn't that bad, but neither was it very neatly directed in my opionion. On the other hand, the BBC radio show is just hilarious. You gotta hear it to believe it. In fact, you can do just that: http://greylodge.org/gpc/?p=53. On this webpage are the original series, but also the new ones, which cover the whole story.

Anyway I still don't understand why he should use Simple Past expressing that. Can you or someone else explain it grammatically?

In my opinion Simple Present is used to express repeated actions or habits. If someone comes to see the hottest threads everyday it is the tense that should be used.

(You're right, it isn't an argument. I'm just wondering.)

In all honesty, I think Gazdi is a better judge than you in these matters, and I think he's right. So if the guy left the forum out of shame then it serves him right for making up stories.

You have to be patients with Pratchett. The first two books in the series I didn't like much, but the rest were a blast.  But you have to have a healthy dose of cynicism, a touch of morbid humor, and be able to deal with a lot of silliness. And you have to have a solid background in world history, literature and religion. Otherwise you won't understand the subtle humor.

Pratchett rules!  :respect:

I tried to get throu LOTR, but never made it past half of the first book. Read the Hobbit though.

I read Hitchhiker's guid, but never got through Restaurant at the End of the Universe or any of the subsequent novels. Somehow it's just not my kind of humor. It could be, but it isn't.

Geez, one gets appreciation from whom he doesn't count on it. Thanks, WW.
BTW, it's gazdi, not Gazdi. This is not a name but a nickname only, and it looks much better in small caps for me.

edit: back to on-topic, what I've read recently in English are Asimov's Foundation books. They are great and still very easy to understand, even for me with not much more than shallow English knowledge. I'm sure I've missed some details, but am pretty familiar with the main storyline and most of the side threads. I enjoyed it, really.

We simply forgive you. :)

I know you play internet games a lot... that's why you learn these incorrect phrases like "dunno" (don't know) and so on. These "english-speaking" servers are extremely not recommended for language learning. Just have a look at Hungarian servers! Sometimes I can hardly understand what some people want... but I'm Hungarian, believe! ;)

We all know you're right, but we all know also that this won't change the way this society changes. While proper spelling is "l00za" and being another brick in the wall is a must for kids, we will just look with eyes wide open and don't try to understand. Are we this old?
