I accepted a member before that had horrid grammar, and she has been a part of our mall for a while now and helps out so much. One of our best members =) She tries, though, so that is all that matters.[/quote] Okay, I can understand people who have a hard time with spelling and grammar - that's okay, my fiancee can't even spell my own name to save his life - but he tries. I'm talking about that people who purposely typ lyk d1$ just bcuz 1ts s00000 k00l you know? *** [size=10]Grooming, wearables, backgrounds, clothes, Fire & Air Faerie Quest items! http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=nioe_yemar&misc Owner of The Rainbow Fields Mall & Celestial Colours Guild![/size]

[quote=Dmitri][quote=raine_storme][center] Mm, the grammar bit would probably tend to rely on whether or not English is the person's first language.... If it is, they have no excuse, and they'll drive me nuts in my forum if I let them join... But if its their second language and they're honestly trying, and they type English well enough to be decipherable, then I can deal with a few typos and grammar mistakes. :O ------------------------------------------------------------------- [url=http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=raine_storme&misc]~~ Come visit my map shop ~~[/url] [/center][/quote] Yeah exactly. Plus it comes down to this: If they cant be bothered learning proper grammar when it is indeed their first language (country: United states etc etc), are they gonna even do their part of the work in a mall? Probably not. An even better approach is to check their account. If they are well rounded (Pet stats/BD scores, avatards, trophies, awesome gallery[pet species/color dont count unless it's a draik or something unobtainable from lab ray/FFQ]) then chances are, they are good. of course there are exceptions but...[/quote] *** I also tend to check people's accounts before letting them into my mall... >.< Especially if their pets are fed or sick... honestly, if you can't even be bothered to feed them, or at least be lazy enough to stick them in the Neolodge, and taking them to the healing springs if they're sick, then what's the chances you're going to be dedicated to my mall?

[quote=perpette]Glad nobody went by my pets! LOL I go through phases with them, just like anything else on the site. If I am in an off phase (which is more often than not) it will take me until they are dying to notice they aren't in the lodge anymore.[/quote] Yeah, I sometimes do this too... [quote=Dmitri]I never use pet statuses though. The account in general is a good enough indicator. If you start looking into hunger, then you'd also have to look at how many games played and what mastery level they are at, userlookup layouts, and all those other tiny things. Trophy count, BD stats, and avatars/gallery are more than enough for me. PLus those cant be obtained in a couple clicks either[/quote] And this is very true Dmitri, very true. *ponders* *** [size=10]Grooming, wearables, backgrounds, clothes, Fire & Air Faerie Quest items! http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=nioe_yemar&misc Owner of The Rainbow Fields Mall & Celestial Colours Guild![/size]
