Re: Loading splash discussion
I was talking about the discussion of the splash screen. That's a spit-n-polish thing. It is a trivial design goal.

Re: Loading splash discussion
How will they ever learn if we don't let them suffer? Yes, I'm only advocating letting them burn in the grammatically rightous fires of Merriam-Webster because I am myself a Grammar Nazi, but my point still stands.

Re: Loading splash discussion
I don't even care much, I just dislike the use of words like "ur" and "cuz". my grammar slips throughout my posts usually, losing caps and apostrophes like we lose children in africa daily. i just try to keep the content more consistently appreciable than my grammar practice.

Anyone who calls themselves a grammar nazi and doesn't have either a degree in English or experience in proofing and editing should just shut up. Please do go ahead. I am confident in my grammatical prowess. In an unrelated story, I'm going to stop talking now.
