It's just a simple spelling mistake. Silver doesn't pay much attention to it as he had to hurry to bring the server back up with a new script.

Is that why he did it again in the donation thread?

On the server, it tells me to not loose my starting gear.

Loose is pronounced like goose, or noose. You would not say "I need to blow my noose." The OO = an "ew" sound.

The definition for loose is:

Not firmly or tightly fixed in place
a loose tooth
the truck's trailer came loose


What should be written is is the word lose.

Lose's definition is:

Be deprived of or cease to have or retain (something)
I've lost my appetite
Linda was very upset about losing her job
the company may find itself losing customers to cheaper rivals



Loose is not a verb. Lose is a verb.

Please correct this. Thank you.

Are.. You kidding? No seriously? It's a extra O no one cares.

Exile spent a long time working on the script and you care about one spelling error?

I cant provide a argument so I will just post a video.

Too bad it isn't grammar. It's spelling.

Plus, can't he just edit the script to fix it?

Why do you even care? It's a typo?

Not everyone is perfect, and most of us as you can see don't give a rats ass about spelling / grammar /  punctuation. Just learn to ignore it, you'll get over it mighty quick.

I think he'd be less likely to fix it given the condescending nature of your post just to annoy you.

I know I would.

I would too.

And I would actually edit the script to make a note that I was doing that intentionally to annoy someone just so it's especially aggravating that the script got edited and that was purposefully not fixed.

Which is probably why I can't have nice things.

We should be asking exile to finish donator flags and suits.*HINT HINT*

Or maybe something called Fallout or crussaria perhaps.

I would but I'm tired of being banned for doing so so someone else can.

Quality of typing is quality of character.

It's not a typo. It's blatant ignorance of the English language.

It's not my fault that I know my language well. Oh wait, it is xDD

How is it ignorance? Im sure LE knows the difference between "Loose" and "Lose" its quite simply a spelling error.

Ask him every day to attempt and do professional/elite whitelists for bandit/stalker/merc seeing as I dont know whats going on with Snork, Abyss and etc.

Those flags are not a priority at this moment. A few select people getting to use something does not outweigh anything else LE could be doing with his time. You donated KNOWING those flags were not complete, and we were not given a set date as to when they would be done.

Okay. I'm really sorry that I made this thread. It wasn't meant to be serious; I was being light-hearted.

Forgive me pl0x.
