Forum Rules

This forum is an ENGLISH ONLY forum. Therefore, the main language to be used for conversation here is ENGLISH. You may, however, make a thread for a specific language (ex: Japanese Chat Thread) and you may discuss in that language there.

Shiori Kimura is a grammar Nazi, so she prefers you type in your messages in proper English. It doesn't need to be perfect, but at least understandable. So no sticky caps LiKe tHiS or txtspk, and no run-on sentences like this that doesnt make use of any of the punctuation marks because it makes what you say all the more unreadable and not very understandable you see what I mean?
