User talk:Fawfulfury65/Archive 12

''' Fawfulfury65's Talkpage!  Begin your messaging now!!!'''

Rules- LISTEN TO THEM!!!... Please.
Hey, excited users! I have some simple rules here:


 * Please no swearing- I just hate when people constantly swear so much that I can't even understand what they're talking about. I don't mind if you use "stupid" or something like that, but be appropriate. If you do swear I'll give you a friendly warning and hopefully you won't do it again if you did swear.
 * Be nice to me and the rest of the users. That's pretty basic, right?
 * Comments go at the BOTTOM of the page.
 * Don't insult Fawful- He's my favorite character, even though he's a psycho green-guy. Don't insult Hammer Bro either- he's my 2nd favorite.
 * Do not insult pie- it tastes good.
 * Don't put things on my talk page to tick me off- you've been warned!
 * No spamming, no flaming.
 * Be yourself.
 * Don't ask me for my phone number. Here it is: 555-676-1234. Yep. That's it.
 * Have a nice day!

Your phone number
I tried to call you to a party with it, but I ended talking with the Soviet Russia Post Center. Something's wrong :/ -- 19:31, 9 January 2011 (EST)

Passive Talk War
Passive talk is basically where you place the predicate before the subject. For example:

"Out of the mine exploded Wario" is passive talk.

"Wario exploded out of the mine" is active talk.

Generally speaking, active talk is preferred over passive talk because not only it prevents problems such as misplaced modifiers, but is more exciting for the reader to read. It also sounds more awkward than active talk. Passive writing is great if it is a preferred style, but for informing readers, active is better. Something like this was written in the articles:

"Ahead of the monkeys is an abyss." I changed it to this:

"An abyss is ahead of the monkeys."


 * Passive talk is still grammatically correct, so it's not a serious issue. I even left some passive talk in the Cog Jog article. Just make sure the majority of the sentences are active.

OHAI!

 * Gah, you archived without responding. >:[

I'm still around. Sorry I haven't talked to you in a while, but I've been very busy with mock interviews, mock exams, revision, and most recently recovering from a head injury and Christmas and New Year celebrations. So, hi Ms Sysop of CHORTLES!!!! Unlike a few users, I shall not rename myself to appease Plumber The Great Waluigi!! It's also my 16th birthday on January 16! 13:29, 10 January 2011 (EST)

Re:Friends
Ok cool! Here is my userbox.

Worlds?
Hey, I have a question about Worlds 1 - 6 under the Places category to the left here...cuz, the first World 1 says "Many Mario games" next to it, but it also lists the World 1's from several Mario games under that as well, so I was just wondering, is there a reason for that? I mean, if there are already some World 1's from some Mario games there, then why even have the "Many Mario games" thing, instead of just listing them all out there, u know?
