resignation.

[QUOTE=northdude;1040275]Yea I'm just trialing the full stops at this stage being a writing retard hope they are going in the right places[/QUOTE

Just a thought;maybe you put a whole lot at the beginning and then people can use them as they think appropriate?

jokes

I Salute you Kotuku

Could be worried the Crusaders are going to stumble.

What caused the "resignation" ?

Dunno but he came across as a tad grumpy in his last couple of posts...

The Crusaders rugby team asked him to leave ,because of his over the top love affair he has with the team ,it's uncomfortable for everyone.

doing the job he does in the profession he is in and dealing with the bullshit he has to deal with he should be a damn sight more grumpy than what he is.
most of us wouldnt last an hour dealing with the crap he has to

I gave up long ago on trying to decipher his posts...I was never really sure if he was a caregiver or a patient.

Let's not bag the guy when hes not here to defend himself

I'll be pretty clear here then: he didn't give a toss what you thought, and I for one found his input valuable.
But then, I took the time to read and interpret it - rather than acting like a high-and-mighty-tosser-insisting-on-proper-grammar.
I'll miss his input - should you choose to leave, I probably wouldn't miss yours....

I can feel the lurrv fair flowing in this thread in the recent posts... :ORLY:

Kind of sad really ,
He was the only guy on my ignore list .
Now I’ll have to find someone else .

While we are on the note of grammar, I don't care about your full stops or lack of @northdude. You get your points across and that's what matters.

The state of this thread
Some of you guys need to engage brain before mindlessly typing shit

Fear not....As a result,my ignore list has just dropped down to two and I can spare you one of those? :>)

Always enjoyed kotuku comments.
Poked a bit his way and received it back in spades.
Hope he comes back when ready.
These threads can get a bit of track pretty quickly as they are no different to email battles we have at work.
We don't have the option to talk face to face or pick up the phone to clear things up.

Well done as I know how difficult it is to "output " as you have, no doubt labouriously, just done.

It could be said then, that without punctuation, it's a whole lot more fun.

Me..me..me..me!

I think that most people here have completely missed the unique point of Kotuku's writings. That point being the way that he could string totally unlikely words and inuendo into the most wonderful flowing poetic 'turns of phrase' and imagery, like a mix of Shakespear, Jim Morrison, Warren Zevon etc

I'm so glad we have so many perfect people on this forum.it always amuses me how perfect people can always find faults with everyone but themselves at this stage in life having been around lots of people the perfect ones and us scummy dumb cunts that are below everyone one else know nothing aren't necessarily God's gift to the grammar spelling punctuation world the reason they are so quick to point out others imperfections is so their own ones dont get noticed.these perfect people sometimes post up about stuff dumb cunts like me actually know quite a lot about or stuff they can do that's actually really easy and such a simple task for me and others like me to do and they are so proud of them selves.it would be very easy for me to post up saying what a fuked job you did or that actually looks like shit or what a dumb way to do it but no we just leave them to it and i personally appreciate their effort to contribute.but that's just me some stuff is easy some stuff just doesn't quite get there with us dumb fuks.if you cant understand what I write put me on your ignore list I couldn't care less.thats how I look at it anyway this post has plenty in it for those who take great pride In pointing out others imperfections so post away not like i haven't heard it my whole life

I think there was a trace of Hunter S. Thompson in there as well.

Some of his Crusaders rants ,where priceless especially if he had been chugging on riggers [emoji869][emoji106]

these perfect people sometimes post up about stuff dumb cunts like me actually know quite a lot about or stuff they can do that's actually really easy and such a simple task for me and others like me to do and they are so proud of them selves.

it would be very easy for me to post up saying what a fuked job you did or that actually looks like shit or what a dumb way to do it but no we just leave them to it and i personally appreciate their effort to contribute.but that's just me some stuff is easy some stuff just doesn't quite get there with us dumb fuks.

if you cant understand what I write put me on your ignore list I couldn't care less.

@northdude, at the risk of being told to piss off, I struggle with reading a giant block of text without gaps in it.

It's so easy to lose track of where you are in the paragraph. I tend to skate over giant blocks of text for this reason.

I'd rather read your point of view than not, but sometimes if I've had a bad day, I just can't.

Not to play schoolteacher or anything, but I took your quote above, and hit the "enter" button twice at the end of each full stop. That's what it looks like and is IMHO far more easy to read and digest.

If your punctuation and spelling aren't perfect, then I for one don't care. Me, I need space between sentences when I read them.

I actually had a real hard time trying to understand what he was talking about but never bagged him for it.who am I to criticize.after you've lived a life in the real world and not the fake internet world you learn that sometimes you need to meet these people in person and then it all makes sense

That's cool hey I'm definitely no computer or it expert if I dont know what the button does I dont touch it anyway I'm looking forward get getting away from this shit and spending tomorrow day and night hunting dont need punctuation or enter buttons for that

I'm not sure that The Lizard King would have agreed with your assumption.

Anyhoo, having derailed the thread with Hunter S. Thompson, let me say this:

@kotuku. You will be missed. And I daresay, welcomed back if you buy a return ticket, so to speak.

Perhaps he's been recognized for what he is. Perhaps a role as a senior journalist at Stuff? Nothing surprises any more.

stuff cant even get questions right in the daily quiz!
last week they identified a p51 mustang as a dehavilland mosquito !!
as for their spelling and punctuation its as bad as their ultra left wing jacinda is a god stories

There was a Stuff article about some poor guy dying in a truck that went into a canal, it was so poorly written that you got the impression the dead guy was in a light truck that was pulled out of another truck in the canal...
