But seriously, if you think THAT was harsh, you haven't seen a noob come in who doesn't know how to capialize, use proper punctuation, or know the proper useages of -- "know/now/no" "new/knew" "their/there/they're" --and so on. We go slightly easier on those for whom English is a second language and are currently learning it. It's always amusing when many of our members who learned English as their second language use it better then those who grew up with English.
Anyway. Slight rambling. But that is when we get SERIOUSLY harsh.

Um, just a thought, I don't think samui can be used to describe kaze, since samui is only used to describe the weather ("kyo wa samui desu", "it's cold today"). Although the wind is a weather phenomenon, it's not weather in itself. So your nick really should be "Tsumetaikaze".

most newbies initiations are the 'Long Walk in the Desert' test and 'The Unblinking Eye' test.. however, we may get all the way to the 'Paddling of the Swollen Ass' on these guys.
The broken English makes it especially amusing. What is 'canocity'? Who 'speads' what language now?
