Make sure your sigs are in order!

The sig police have just told me off for my spelling, everyone check theirs in case you get caught too.

CeeBee · 13th April 2007, 16:34

I don't have time to check everybody's...there is nothing wrong with creative spelling...it's just that I know you can do better. I will, however, do random checks for aberrant apostrophes.

Muppets is upper case M isn't it Ceeb?

And does the term ****ing Muppetry therefore carry the cap M?

One final question... How can I add to Freef's reputation?

The use of the capital in 'Muppets' depends entirely upon whether you are referring to the characters a la Jim Henson...in which case as a registered trademark, should indeed carry the capital. If using as a derogatory term or even a term of endearment, I suppose that in this case it is all down to personal preference.

Your second point is technically more difficult to answer, as there is no capital *....it is also dependent on whether you are using the term '****ing' as a present participle or as an adjective...

Your final question...depends on what you mean as 'reputation'..there are some who would argue that he does just fine on his own...others that he needs all the help he can get.

In the case of my sig, used to describe a clueless group of punters, each with someone else's hand up his a@@ moving his lips...

Oh and I got called a 'sod' on a PM for this thread. Did I mention names?

...and a 'bugger' on a rep point too.

A bit lairy some of these scouse birds.

CeeBee · 14th April 2007, 00:19
