You know, I've been trying to find Darthomir for months. Just the chance to see a planet primarily populated with Sith Lords is worth the effort of looking.. But alas. Maybe it'll be a Space POI with JTL?

Last time I was a master ranger (about 1-2 months ago) I noticed the correlation between Trapping Skill points and ability to trap creatures based on Difficulty Level. This means you 'cannot' trap larger krayts because they are simply higher difficulty than max trapping +skill tape bonuses (350 tends to be alot higher than the 100 points the master ranger gets

" Even the advertisements on the buses I ride are badly written"
That probably due to them trying to be "urban", which is bloody daft if you ask me, Im not more likely to buy a product just because the manufacturer spell things the way I pronounce them, hehe.

That is an understatment (think of the new Volvo commercials...).

No, they're not trying to be urban sadly. I mean, for example, putting apostrophes where they're not needed, as is so common nowadays. Some people omit them entirely, and some people put them before every s that ends a word. lol

Krayt - pronounced like a crate of Grey Gabaki.
Kryat is a result of bad or lazy typing or spelling, and the spread of this mispelling to people who don't know better. And is, for **edit**-retentive spellers like myself, something to cry at.
Don't get me started on your and you're or there, their and they're!!! On a funny note, a friend of mine likes to hunt on Darthomir
.Oh, and putting punctuation where it isn't needed. Honestly, typos are one thing, but I wonder how many people can actually spell or use grammar nowadays.Every managerI'veworked forhas asked me to re-type their offical correspondence for them - and I work in retail, I'm nobody's PA! Even the advertisements on the buses I ride are badly written; there was a time where that would signify sloppy workmanship, andit would lose trade forthatcompany. Now most people seem to spell so badly, or they're so used to companies such as Taco Bell with it's 'stuft' burritos (shudder), that they don't even notice.
Sigh.
