A short grammar lesson.

When refering to a noun that belongs to an article you are talking to you should use your.

e.g. This is your pen.



When refering to an article using the shortened, abreviated version of you are you should use you're.

e.g. You're holding a pen.



I mention this because i see this mistake so many times in peoples posts and it makes me die on the inside alittle each time.

How about a spelling lesson? The correct spelling for the bold words above is: abbreviated and a little.
 
Sorry mate, grammar and punctuation are different things, you can't have both just like that. These things require time. However, in future lessons I will try to conform to the strictest standards.



If you want a there, their and they're lesson I'm afraid you will have to wait. I will need at least two weeks to do some proper research.

I must also congratulate speakers of American English on being a more caring people than English speakers of English.



Americans could care less, while Engilsh couldn't.



(or for a more WoW relevant term, the American's care cup still has something in it).
