Username: Sapphire The Wolf
Nickname (if any): Sapphire, Saph
Why you want to join: I am a grammer ninja! I have attended ALA, and am now very precise with my grammer (but not my spelling ^^' we never did spelling in ALA.... ironic.....)
Anything else? Not really, I am a fail at typing, so if i make an error, please tell me so I can correct it! Also, can I enter that story contest (with the short paragraph about the plot of Finding Nemo? I love to edit x3)

As long as you don't use chat speak here, it's fine. (You'll have all the other members tackling on you with handcuffs and Nerf/Marshmallow guns) And yeah, you just need to send me a message. (Read the rules, first!)
Wow, i'm really into quoting your forms now. xD

(How the heck are you supposed to color this?!


And am I the only one seeing the irony in this? A picture taking out chat speak and a tick posting a reply saying the pictures were cool with chatspeak? They must be really blind if they can't see that I don't like Chat speak. Or maybe it was the giant banner in my Siggie linking to here, the Grammar Police, run by me?

.... I have no idea how you're supposed to color that. O___o I guess, the only reasonable explanation I can come up with is if there were other layers, but since Oekaki isn't working on my computer I can't check. Since it only took the person two minutes, though, I'm guessing that there isn't anything else...

Saph, don't be too worried though, at least we don't bite. We only attack with Nerf guns and marshmallows! :D

But that person seemed like wayy too much of a tick to know how to appropriately use layers, though...And I just got a Spam message. Debating whether to report it.

I've gotten that PM twice. I reported it both times. I suggest you do the same. c: I mean, if it were actually for helping animals, I would probably not report it because I'm an animal lover and I would want to do something like that, but it's not for helping animals.

And how are you supposed to help animals just by clicking a link? And it didn't have a ".com". Google chrome didn't even load it. It's just like those stupid "Forward or else you DIE tomorrow!" Emails and texts. How do you die if you don't forward a spam message? Delete! =3

I agree. My computer followed the link, and it was some sparkly pink site in a language that I couldn't understand. I think Google Translate said it was Portuguese or something, but I don't remember. I forward some chain emails, like the kind that has a nice little poem or something funny on it, but the rest of them I just delete. They can be a real pain.

I know, like the petition against drunken driving one. That poem was really sad, and it was a petition against a bad thing. While the ones where it's about a girl who's found dead (like hanged or something) because she didn't forward an email are spam, and I mainly delete those.

Greenie, I just noticed that you have part of that song from end of Portal, the one Glados sings (I think it's called Still Alive), in your signature! High five! :D/spam


I especially dislike the ones that have tons of misspelled words and say that you're going to die if you just delete the email. Those ones, I not only delete, but ask the person who sent it to me why they would pass something like that on. (Except for my one friend, who's really paranoid and sends on every chain email she gets.) |D

Why you want to join:I am sick and tired of chatspeak and incorrect grammar. Can't people understand the difference between your and you're? Sheesh. And I also, it ticks me off when somebody sees that the little red line underneath their words and don't even right click it. o.o
Anything else? I is liking marshmallow guns. XD

Yep, I like that part. My friend introduced me to it when she said that was her favorite lyric. xD (WHOO! *starts to hi-five, but turns hand into fist at last moment* Turkey! It's a turkey now, see? The fist against the flat hand looks like a turkey! =D)
I know, how exactly is a non-animate chain-email supposed to hunt you down and hang you in your closet? What if you only have a dresser, not a closet! D=

Accepted! (I know, so is Rainy. xD We're liking the bow and arrows and Nerf guns)


I have Still Alive stuck in my head now... o-o
