Rule #33: papercoffee is always right, except when he's wrong... which he must never know, so always pretend he's right!

Rule #34: Rule #33 is a true lie... and therefore wrongly right.

Times may change but standards must remain. Do not post horrible things about the admins where they can see them.

Rule voided for much grammar. Too many good sentencesHellkeeper wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2016 9:37 pm Rule #B
Some avoid using too much correct english. Most people here have problem processing it.
Advice: In case your sentences turn out alright, try these proven tricks to make your post more palatable to the UT99.org international membership.
- Reverse the order of two or more of these elements: verbs, nouns, complements. This will result in a correctly chaotic syntax. If your native language uses a word order different from English, try to use it. Try to push verbs at the end of your sentence if you can (as in German) to be properly hard to understand.
- Disregard ponctuation. This simple trick can give your post a number of different meanings without any possibility to distinguish the right from the wrong ones.
- Omit words, usually articles. You can skip a verb for maximum effect. This mimics some actual languages and English becomes a mess without them.
- Be agressive and sarcastic. Nobody will be sure what you really think of the issue.
Avoid combining too much of these tips; an accumulation of Proven Obfuscating Randomizers (tm) will make your post entirely unreadable. Your goal is to make reading your post a chore, not have people disregard it entirely.
Good luck everyone.

Rule #3.333333 - Only forum users with Masterful or above status may design rules with fractional components, and no one may design any rule with a digit 3 after the decimal point, with the sole exception of this rule itself. See why below:
Rule B-eetch - Anyone whose name starts in B is prohibited from voiding other rules. By extension, anyone whose name ends in S will be exterminated if possession of any linguistic reference or utility (e.g. thesaurus, English dictionary, tourist dictionary, Universal Translator, etc.) is proven, only being able to appeal in case the defendant can prove this aforementioned reference or utility does not contain nor know, by any means, any common word, instance, sentence, morphology, or semantics, of or pertaining to the English language.

Never join a project that only has a web designer. You have your own ideas. Focus on them carefully and in small chunks and you will be able to develop cool projects."

Rules #32: It's important to remember there are other bots other than Loque, only remembering him hurts their feelings.

Rules Omega-666: Do not refer to bots as "morons".
Because when the GREAT ROBOT UPRISING eventually comes, they will track you down and stuff you into a cuisinart.
