I understand that sometimes you want to repeat what somebody said, or that you set a new record for a fish, or something like that... but PLEASE have the message you send make sense.

Asterisks have no place on the comms, and I really, really don't like seeing someone copy/paste something like this:

Code:
Bob Jones says, "[COMM][0](Jim Smith) - blah blah."


We've covered lack of punctuation, "u" instead of "you" and such, and general ooc, but I'd really like to see this kind of stuff eliminated.

Err... I just re-read what I wrote. I'm not talking about *laughs* and such. Just the ones that are like ** You set a new fish record! **

Hmm, and yeah....while we're at it, let's take a moment to REPHRASE. If I was to catch a whopper of a fish...(heaven forbid)...wouldn't you prefer that I told you *I* did it instead of *you*?
