Hunt of Graff Spee and hursh winter. A plea to WG.

[Anthoniusii]

This winter was/still is one of the harderst in the last years. In many countries people sufaired vast dammages in pluming, elecricity or got sick by the flue in lamost half of the europe. For example my bedroom had -15 for 10 days! Central and south europe sufaired a lot from this winder.

You must realise that some had no water, no electricity and ofcourse not internet conection to participate in the event.

It would be unfair to them to lose this ship/event fron nature forces that could not control.

My plea to WG is to show some sympathy to winter "victims" and extend the Graff Spee event at least by the end of January.

 

[Juanx]

Life is not fair, deal with it.

[RobS80]

Its a new approach, Ill give you that.

To be fair it can be either.

So we even have British English (also known as English) and American English (also known as, hurrrr durrrr) grammar nazis. Nice.

This winter was/still is one of the harderst in the last years. Eh, I don't know where you live, but... no?

In many countries people sufaired vast dammages in pluming, elecricity or got sick by the flue in lamost half of the europe. Firstly, if you can't afford to fix (or have someone fix) your water system or heaters, you have more urgent things to do than complain about an online game. Secondly, isn't having a flue kind of ... giving you more time to play because you don't have to go to work?

For example my bedroom had -15 for 10 days! Central and south europe sufaired a lot from this winder. Again, where do you live? Top of the Alps in a tent? I live in central Europe and the lowest temperatures we had was like... -10°C in one night. So again, if you have -15 °C over 10 days, you might have worse problems than the lack of time/opportunity to participate in online game's event.

You must realise that some had no water, no electricity and ofcourse not internet conection to participate in the event. See above.

It would be unfair to them to lose this ship/event fron nature forces that could not control. If WG would consider every events by "natural forces, the players can't control"... Well, they wouldn't be able to stop any event.

My plea to WG is to show some sympathy to winter "victims" and extend the Graff Spee event at least by the end of January. Don't get me wrong, if the things you wrote are right (and I highly doubt it) I feel sorry for you. But we can feel lucky to have had this event at all. so I highly doubt WG will extend the event just because someone was unable to shut his window during a cold night.

 

 

 Or is this just

 

[Srle_Vigilante]

If you have such problems, how can you even afford to pay for the electricity to run you pc......

 

 

 

[Hanszeehock]

 

 

In the UK we use the term flu 'jab' not 'shot'. Also as Bushwacker did not use false stops, he did not need to capitalise the first letters of every line

Actually, he lives in Greece.....which seems to have moved up into the Arctic circle.

In the UK we use the term flu 'jab' not 'shot'. Also as Bushwacker did not use false stops, he did not need to capitalise the first letters of every line 

 

full stops 

 

I know, there is no rule that a list has to be capitals but I couldn't be arsed to point it out. 

[cro_pwr]

Actually I have to agree with OP.

I just had to spend an hour cleaning the snow outside. Could WG pls transfer 3 mil creds to my account, since I would earn them easily if I didn't have to clean the snow?

[Nechrom]

Jab...

No, I won't call it lorry or lift either.

 

No he did not use full stops, but he should. Hence also requiring capital first letters.

Bad grammar either way.

[Hedgehog1963]

 

Fix bedroom heating.

Sort out plumbing.

Get a flu shot.

Plead with an online game company to extend its 'complete by' date so I can get a pixel ship.

Practice spelling.

 

So, this is wrong.  Making a list like this you don't use capital letters to start all lines and you don't use full stops but semi colons.  You use "and" before the last item.

 

Fix bedroom heating;

sort out plumbing;

get a flu jab;

plead with an online game company to extend its 'complete by' date so I can get a pixel ship; and

practice spelling.

 

Use of jab is fine because this is an English forum not an American English forum.

 

[bushwacker001]

My original post only mentioned spelling and the one you said was wrong wasn't.  

[Exocet6951]

Pls extend event and premium for those who were sick too.

 

I had a nasty stomach ache the other week. I honestly thought I was done for.I scribbled down a will. At least I think I did, it might have been a fever dream, which would explain why I was using the Wingdings font.

In conclusion, I waste 3 premium days fighting for my very life. Pls extend WG.

 

 

Also, remove RPF.

I would have ****ing loved it if that thing was a fever dream rather than an actual change.

[RobS80]

Yes, remove RDF due to cold weather and possibly flu and some broken pipes.

Are you just making stuff up now or what? Semi colon? What kind of sentence structure is that? It's a list, not prose or some haiku.

Two options. Either it's a run on sentence, which it obviously isn't due to the header "Things on your priority list:". Or it's a list and you capitalise the first letter in each row and put a full stop at the end.

In neither of those cases should you use semi colon.
