Hey EA, when is the next donut sale? I am itching to spend some money but i am waiting for a sale first. I guarantee there will be more money to be made if you have one very soon....PLEEEASSSEEEEE :mrgreen:

I want to introduce you to my close personal friend, the question mark. He looks like this: ?

...There's a question mark in their post.

One was needed in the thread title.

Seriously? do you come on threads to play grammar police? Get a life. Nobody asked for your rude comment. If you didn't have any information on the next donut sale, why did you waste your time replying and being a jerk?
Maybe you should get off the computer and out of your mom's basement, and get a real job and human friends

Firstly nicoleathomas81 welcome to the forum :D
Secondly perhaps calm down a little, I am sure nothing nasty was meant.

To others, I think peeps have been alittle harsh, the amount of other questions that have been asked, future updates (when they will happen and what we will get etc) we pretty well say about stuff that would improve the game, in fact Neo the mod even asked the question about the 5 most important things we wanted EA to update the game with, yet no one told him that EA probably don't monitor these boards.

Hows about we all just say Hi nicoleathomas81 welcome to the forum, we hope you have much fun and believe that human friends are highly overrated, we go for imaginary friends just for a laugh lol :D

I think what he meant about the title requiring a question mark is because he opened the thread thinking there was info about the next sale as many of us thought.
if there was a question mark we would know right away from the title that someone is asking and not making a post to tell everyone when it will be.

Dude, if a question mark is your close personal friend I think you need to get out and make some real friends....maybe some imaginary friends instead. I have a few imaginary friends :D

My imaginary friends have all stopped liking me :cry:

Mine did but I gave them all a fiver, now they love me again :D perhaps you should give them some money? Might help a little........and no you can't fob them off with imaginary/pretend money it has to be real :D

Maybe......I don't have alot of real friends, I mainly go for the imaginary ones, although I am going to get rid of some imaginary friends as they are starting to annoy me.

True, but with nicoleathomas being so new I can kind of understand how ephphoneapps' comment might have been taken the wrong way.

Agreed mate, not all newbies take banter the same way. Although technically I am still sort of a newbie to this forum. But I am up for banter.

Agreed but i think when most people read the title to this thread and it being in all CAPS and no question mark they are checking this thread because they think it is an announcement of when the next donut sale is and not a question about when it will be.

For what it's worth, this was my point. The lack of "?" along with the use of all caps made me think there was another sale, not a thread wondering when one would be. It was frustrating, OP.

I could have used more tact, but sometimes the harsher lessons are the ones that are learned quicker.

Ha ha, I wondered why there was a comment about posting in CAPS, I actually thought some peeps in here were going stir-crazy......so is it just me going stir-crazy? Or am I sane and the rest if the world is crazy?

Although I find it strange how when people put something in CAPS we think the person is shouting.......strange.
