AndI thought you meant U = upgrade.



I played a Canadian text based mud for so long, sometimes I put the 'u' in there anyway.




Now that it's OK to support the removal of classes in your signature, I firmly support the removal of all the benny hill glowstick fanclub from the game; it was a lot more fun before they came.

And from the canadian side of things we also spell it the british way. Armour. Though to be honest. while 'officailly' in canada we use the british spelling of words. Generally either the american or british way of spelling has pretty much come to be accepted far as I've ever been able to tell.

I spell it both ways but after reading this, I vow to use the U whenever I think about it.

I highly suggest that the British and Canadians take all their extra vowels and send them to the various Slavic-language nations that so desperately need them.

like the other canadians said, we tend to lean towards the british spelling but no one ever fights if you spell it the american or english way, we accept both

Pissed off? No, chalk this up to "you are stupid and we like to make fun of you because of that fact and laugh about it".


We are using english to speak here, and surprise, it originated in...ENGLAND! *gasp!* I am fairly certain they thought of it first, so that pretty much makes them the authority. lol


That would be like telling a native american that he isnt speaking american right lol
