Yep, pretty much every member on this forum is secretly a seasoned game developer.
We are? Cool! I gotta contact Beth, Zeni and Bioware right away! I understand you actually get to play the games as well as develop them.
Yay!
I don't know yet, but I'm pretty sure Todd Howard gets email alerts every time I make a post. It's only a matter of time before they fly me to Maryland and make me the lead designer on Fallout 5.
Yeah.... the first one hired off the street should be the guy that cooked up the "nvde Mama Murphy" mod in his moms' basemant. Totally.

I foresee this. How? Because the kid gave me some http://i.imgur.com/W2vCDgO.jpg.
Doesn't it specifically mention something about "not being a grammar or spelling cop" in the forum rules you agreed to? You do realize that a rather large number of forum members aren't native English speakers, correct?
Pfft.
In my experience, non native English speakers not only make fewer mistakes with their grammar and punctuation, they are also more likely to take constructive criticism on their writing.
It be da natif speekers dat mess it up gud.
"The use of leet speak is difficult to understand for many, and should not be used. In addition, please do not take it upon yourself to be a spelling and grammar cop. With the number of non-English speaking members here, it is to be expected errors will occur. It is fine to be helpful, just please don't be spiteful."
You are absolutely correct. My bad. I was just trying to be funny.
I do apologize if anyone was offended and will make it a point to never do so again.
I had thought that my tag line would make my humor clear, but, apparently not.
Again, I apologize.
True. I am a native speaker of Norwegian and German, yet, I pride myself on my excellent grammar and spelling in English, but I did apologize for my comments and even quoted the rules.
I hope folks don't take it too seriously.
