@Joeball Thanks. That makes a lot of sense. @JackArbiter No need. I'll just ignore those from now on. As for the Oxford comma, that seems reasonable. Consistency at this point is a fool's errand.

Diff'rent strokes for different folks. I played the original extensively and enjoyed it. I am playing the remake and I enjoy it. There are features of the original that I like more and vice versa. Of course, there are people who disagree and dislike one or the other (or both). But that's not because they're not reasonable. That's because there are no universal rules of fun.

[quote who="JackArbiter" reply="2" id="3252653"]Thanks again for your help with this. The two dashes were in place of having sentence fragments, I didn't want to change up the style of the sentences. The quotation mark in the middle of whatever was my bad, I don't know how it happened except that I was adding them around the sentence as it's a quote from someone and I must have let one slip in the middle. I've removed it from the post. [/quote]

In the description of Procipinee: [quote]than yourself, better[/quote] No comma is necessary. As I read the sentence, the comma between "less gifted" and "less fortunate" takes the place of a conjunction.

[quote]Select your city, and then click the ‘Build’ button to construct your first improvement.[/quote] The comma is incorrect. The sentence contains a compound predicate, not coordinate clauses. [You] select your city and then click the 'Build' button to construct your first improvement.

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="46" id="3246089"]Most mods that aren't fully original are in that legal grey area. You have mods for Star Wars, Star Trek, Star Gate, Babylon 5, Mass Effect etc. for Sins, Lord of the Rings mods for Rome: Total War etc. Yet by and large these are apparently tolerated so long as no profit is made. And if these bankrupt guys do care about a franchise that will likely never be continued, well that's what cease and desist letters are for.[/quote] The d

[quote who="starkers" reply="34" id="3203294"]It's only generic here because it relates to anything from brothels and tattoo parlours to pubs and boutiques. Moreover, Aussies aren't greedy about it, either. It seems anyone here can stick a 'Metro' in their business name if it fits well enough, and nobody's going to sue over it. Nah, it'd take more than that to get us up in arms...[/quote] Hey, we may be very litigious, but you Aussies aren&#39

[quote who="TAOCuathon" reply="2" id="3202700"] Usually people ask for less detail... However the game is designed to possess Sim, TBS, and RPG features and systems so if you spent all of your time microing your army you would be falling behind in research and economy and you wouldn't have time to decide what to do with RPG stuff like raising stats and having mages learn new magic and such.

[quote who="starkers" reply="27" id="3202183"]So Metro Germany is a stay-at-home firm that only sues from its armchair if the mob using the Metro name is an international corporation and it'll give them oodles of free publicity?[/quote] No, the point is that trademarks are country-specific. Metro Germany probably doesn't own the registration in Australia. If the Metro brothel began operating in Germany, then they'd likely have a case for trademark dilution.
