First couple lines really got me. Then I got used to it.

Thanks, but don't spread that around too much, I have enough trouble trying to get the builders to use correct spelling and punctuation as it is ;-)

We have players on our mud who type like that all the time!

I don't believe it is intentional, though...

Ah yes, people who communicate in that fashion truly test my self-restraint.

Well, I'll admit it, I caught the spelling after the first line, myself... quite the interesting bit of wording (spelling, no less) that was placed there! I'm not sure WHY it's there, but it's certainly an interesting (quite interesting how I'm keeping the word interesting used, eh? ) piece of work.
