    We now have less server, but we still have problems!

  2. Doofus ex Machina   21 years ago

    I think he meant less server problem's

  3. a pedant   21 years ago

    Ahem. That's "Fewer Server Problems".

  4. Umbriel   21 years ago

    We don't have to conform to your Fascist grammar, MAN! This is a Libertarian site!

  5. Mark   21 years ago

    Grammar, Grammar,
    Uber Alles!!!!!

  6. a pedant   21 years ago

    Ahem, again. That's "Grammar, Grammar ?ber Alles!!!!!"

  7. Another pedant   21 years ago

    Actually, it's "Grammar, Grammar ?ber alles". Only nouns are capitalized in titles. Although with the new rules, "alles" can be considered a noun and therefore capitalized....

  8. Malak,   21 years ago

    Sure you fixed the problems. So how come there's black ops helicopters circling my house when I post. Explain that, would ya . . .

  9. yet another pedant   21 years ago

    >> This is a Libertarian site!

    Ahem. That would be "libertarian" with a lowercase l, since this site is not affiliated with the Libertarian party.

  10. raymond_m   21 years ago

    I think it was "less" as in "minus" or "without".

    Preposition.

    Ergo, He didn't make a grammar mistake.

    The fact that people posted like madmen (some of them literally) this weekend is irrelevant.
