King Charles introduces the Tax Collectors

[Tylan]

alot of time.

The King's english, indeed.



His Majesty has chosen interesting representation in the collection of his taxes. Lurking in the bowels of the Darkness, gathering like-minded thugs to their cause. I denounce your authority until I see a Writ of Authority signed by the King.

Oh noes u R a grammar police ?

Hey, all I'm saying is that you're being out-grammared by a raider (currently in ranger's clothing) Chief whose roleplayed faux-Native American English is more consistent, creative, correct than yours.

You're a King's man; His Majesty's iron fist in the New World! I highly doubt (amidst my admitted hubris at the ways of Gods and kings) that King Charles would dirty himself by scraping through the gutters to find someone to collect his coins.

The King was already happy to find someone who can write !

Always cracks me up when someone points out grammar mistakes and in the process makes one of their own.

In fact, there are a lot some Europeans around. I know Germans, Italians and Dutchmen, also Spanish. My impression is, that many of them keep quiet on the forums, because the majority of them are newcomers and not attached to the H&H community and their high skilled veterans. They don't get involved "in the drama", because they have other goals in Salem than raiding and raging, or don't like the atmosphere in the forum. Another fact remains, that many not anglo-saxons are able to read and understand the english language, but are not sure if their written language is good enough to write here, so they remain anonymous.

There certainly is a group of non-Brits/Americans that's a bit unsure about its level of English, but I think many people whose native tongue is anything other than English tend to write very well, because they are aware of the fact it's not their first language and have had to make quite the effort to learn it. I think it'd only be a good gesture by English and American people to tend to write as clearly as they can just so everyone is able to understand it.
