The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Has anyone noticed the poor grammar on the subtitles between Chomper and his parents?



There should be a coma after "sure".



"Longneck" was a one word the last time I checked.



There should be a period at the end of this sentence.

I wonder if the person adding the subtitles was lazy that day?

Shocking! Does that mean that cartoon dinosaurs can't read and write properly? :lol
No, it means that paid subtitle typers can't now that's shocking indeed ;)
Given my own rather insufficient command of comma rules, I mustn't throw stones in my very own glass house though :oops

Well, guys... you can at least comprehend what's being said there. It's not a big deal, actually.

Honestly, as long as it's legible and gets the point across, I'm okay with it, especially in a movie setting, not to mention a kids film. But, in all honesty, those subtitles were hilarious. "Sometimes I worry about that boy...", "Something that smells like that can't taste very good anyway." Chomper's Dad seems like someone I would want to hang out with. I was dying.

On a side note, Chomper's Dad's teeth are coming right out of his lips! JEEZ. Forget the inaccuracy of the subtitles, worry about this! :p
