Stay civil, because the consequences of causing a scene again will far outweigh any "benefits."
As far as I can recall, I've never posted in this thread before, so I don't share any blame for any previous shenanigans. I used to be an expert on the English language, having worked as a proofreader (a job that was killed off by spell-checking software, even though many fail to use such software, as you've demonstrated) and a typesetter (a career cut short by desktop publishing software which allowed any secretary to do on a regular computer what had previously been done by typesetters on much more expensive dedicated hardware). I also had volunteer experience as an editor and ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher. I'm even listed as Juan_Arquero in the credits for editing the news in a previous version (4.84 IIRC) of Discovery Freelancer back when Igiss was still an active developer. Anyway, when I saw the grammatical errors in your post, I couldn't resist playing David to your Goliath!
Your post gave a warning, not a "warn" while your last line needed "outweigh" (no "t") and the period after benefits should be inside the quotation marks.
Feel free to call me a Grammar Nazi, as I used to do in my signature until an Admin got his panties in a bunch and decided that my signature needed to be deleted because I had swastikas next to my sarcastic title. I guess his right to be "woke" outranked my right to express myself. I've rarely posted since then because I'm appalled that I have to control my wording to prevent being silenced. I grew up in a free country (USA) where free speech used to be protected, but no longer is for those who aren't politically correct. My father grew up in Argentina where he had to bite his tongue, since he couldn't express his conservative views because that could've gotten him killed by the left-wing Peronistas who were running Argentina. I'm appalled when American liberals glorify Evita Peron as a saint when I know she was a slut who slept her way to the top and that she used that power to act as a despot.

Opens up white box and John White bursts out of the seams in a liquid state. He slowly slinks across the room and uses the leg of a table to essentially solidify himself into disgruntled Gerard Butler.
"YOU TRIGGERED MY TRAP-CARD!" White screams at the pitiful thief who stole his proprietary product. He then proceeds to puke out a nuclear bomb which appears to be a on a count-down to self destruct. You see that it's already reached the number one by the time White has turned into a solid object. I guess you'll just die now.
