Justin,
First, I appreciate your passion regarding piracy, however your 'proof' is flawed. There have been several discussions of this very matter over on the genii forum with people who have access to the actual scientific research behind this topic. In short, many studies disagree with the conclusions your informal observations have drawn.
While I too disagree with the act of piracy, I must be intellectually honest and evaluate the facts for what they are. I suggest you explore some of those topics, or look up the studies done specifically as they relate to the RIAA claims regarding the monetary loss resulting from piracy.
On a personal note, I would like to ask a sincere question:
What do you hope to accomplish by intentionally misspelling the words 'just' and 'get?'.
Do you think this will garner respect among literate adults? Are you hoping to curry favor among children with spelling problems?
I remember one thread where you were very adamant that you were much older than I thought you were (Early 30's, late 20's?), so I assume you have a reason for this choice.
Perhaps there is another reason I simple cannot fathom. Several people have commented lately about your orthography.
Would you mind explaining what we are supposed to get from it?
Thanks
(And I'm not trying to be antagonistic, I am sincerely curious AND I hope you will find the studies I referenced interesting if not enlightening)
Brad
I disagree with your opening diatribe. My personal research has proven other results but I am willing to agree to disagree.
And honestly the reason i use spelling like "jist" and "Git" instead of "just" and "Get" is a real simple answer..I want to. No "secret hidden meaning", no "I jist do not know how to spell" it's really because I choose to do that right now in my life.
Now here is a real honest question for you and all the other peeps that seem to "care" about what JM is wearing or how JM spells certain words. WHY? Why am I so important in your thoughts that you care how I spell or how I look. It is one of the most childish, pathetic, actions I have ever seen.
Please to all of you who really take more than 5 seconds to post sumn about what I am wearing, or how I say sumn..GET A LIFE! I have one and it is GREAT!
Soooo brad there is your answer.
JM
