GGNG home page Q: What is forbidden? A: Harassing other Gaians in PMs or instant messenger programs, ad homonym attacks (with the exception of attacking their intelligence, but that much should be obvious by now; what we're trying to avoid is "Your p***s is small" posts), and really long sigs. We're here to enforce good language skills, not to harass people. Why does this not bother you? scream How long has this been here? I've joined this guild just to point out your grammatical mistakes and hypocrisy. This annoys me greatly, and I am being serious.

Wow. Perhaps he really meant attacks directed at words that sound or look the same as other words. Quote: The same thing as the GGN Guild, I've just been itching for a reason to use the word Paramilitary. Comma splice. Quote: Don't flame the people who don't speak English natively, they are usually trying very hard. Another one.

dictionary homonym, n. One of two or more words that have the same sound and often the same spelling but differ in meaning, such as bank (embankment) and bank (place where money is kept). 1. If it was really against homonyms, then the words would still be spelled correctly. I don't see how it can be a pun. 2. Why would he make references to attacking someone's intelligence and "your p***s is small" posts, then?

Whether it was meant to be a pun or not, I do not know; I am bad at detecting those kinds of things.
However, homonyms include homographs [words that look the same] homophones [words that sound the same]. Homonym and hominem are, more or less, homophones.
It is a very random place to put a pun like that, if it is indeed supposed to be.

All right. I'll concede.
I also thought it was too random to be a pun. If you want to ban me, then so be it.

And it's ad hominem, not ad homonym.

Honestly, what the ******** is this s**t? Da_Ish I've joined this guild just to point out your grammatical mistakes and hypocrisy. This annoys me greatly, and I am being serious. Pointed out a rather clever pun is what you did. By virtue of the fact that he used "homonym" instead of "hominem," he made both a pun and an example of homonym confusion, common among errant Gaian dipshits. I just ruined it by explaining it to you. Bugger off. SpazLink It is a very random place to put a pun like that, if it is indeed supposed to be. You think that was random? You're not a member of the Anti-dj medieval guild, are you? Arduin Linsang Spinel And it's ad hominem, not ad homonym. "STFU B00N!"
