What is wrong with most of you. While I admit that this question is largely rhetorical, it should still have a question mark.

You do realize you didn't buy Baldur's Gate? Aside from being a horrible assumption — many of us, myself included, DID buy Baldur's Gate — this is horrible interrogative style. In a question, the normally emphatic "do" gets fronted to mark the interrogative mood.

You know when your playing Avernum that you are in fact not playing Neverwinter Nights? This is what an English teacher of mine called an "illiteracy." The word "your" is a possessive. You meant "you are," which abbreviates to "you're." Use an apostrophe, o superior one.

Becuase most of you are still in high school I can excuse you... for the rest of you. I'm not in high school, and I can spell "because." To the best of my understanding of your syntax, you wanted a colon at the end of this section, not a period. This is a run-together sentence, too, although a poorly formed one, because the second part of it ("for the rest of you") was clearly intended to mean, "to the rest of you, I say," but it has no subject or verb. Fragment!

Worthless sacks of crap. This is also a fragment. I suppose one could argue that it is an exclamation of sorts, but if so, it really should be preceded by a colon or marked off by some punctuation.

Jeff is doing a great job. This is perhaps the only grammatically correct sentence in your entire post. It is also the most contentious. The fact that you are not a part of the Blades community partly excuses your ignorance.

The fact that most of you don't even know what code is, atests to the fact that you really couldn't do any better even if you tried. Oh, you're a smart one. I can name at least ten people here who can code better than anyone that you know, and I know someone who is on the verge of doing better at this very moment. Most people here can also spell the word "attests."

Does Jeff even read these boards? No, and I congratulate you for your second mechanically well-formed sentence in your post. Honestly, two out of eight isn't bad for a batting average.

Man if he does, he must hate most of you. Exclamatory remarks should be set off by a comma. That is, your sentence should read, "Man, if he does...."

I always wondered why his emails were so short. Yes, because he doesn't particularly interact with the community, his e-mails to you are short. This makes perfect sense. However, you're doing well on the mechanics: you have three out of ten good ones, so far.

Haha. You fail AT LIFE.

The fact of the matter is... the games are good. Should I ding you for an unnecessary ellipsis? Properly, those three dots should only be used when ommitting something in a quote.

Have you ever played the perfect game? Wow. You have achieved a fourth mechanically correct sentence. It only took you thirteen sentences to get that far.

The game that left nothing to be desired? This is a fragment, you sad, sorry, illiterate individual.

Anyone who says yes, is a liar or simply doesn't possess the faculities to realize there is more to be desired. The word "faculities" sounds like one of two things: either an island getaway ("You have just won a free trip to the Faculities!") or a part of the body particularly prone to disease ("I'm sorry, sir, but we will have to operate on your faculities"). I assume you meant "faculties." Also, I hate your comma use here. Why the hell do you feel the need to separate your subject from your verb with a comma? This is the worst insertion since the last seventies porn movie.

Earlier in the post someone commented on a 3d engine. Earlier in the post? I am confused. Perhaps you meant earlier in the thread. I suppose this sentence is mechanically correct, but you clearly used the wrong word. You're still batting four for fifteen.

For starters 3d design is possible with one or two people. There are those who would complain that a polysyllabic transition word or phrase like "for starters" should be set off with a comma. I am such a person.

They need to be able to design and draw, and be willing to give up a few years of their life. Again, your comma use is flawed. Do not separate your verb from your subject by inserting a comma in between the two of them.

Since the content is based in large on story and not keeping up with jone's... i think a 3d engine is... 1.) not needed and 2.) a mute point. Whew. This sentence is fun. Your idioms are repeatedly lacking: I think you're trying to say, "in a large part," not "in large," and "keeping up with the Joneses" — don't form a plural using an apostrophe, and for crying out loud, capitalize your proper nouns. Capitalize "I" when it is the first person nominative pronoun. And the word "mute" means "unable to speak," not to be confused with "moot," which means "of no practical relevance." I need not mention that your numbering system is horribly unidiomatic prose, but I will anyway.

Question me... I dare you. I'd rather not. You clearly have nothing valuable to offer. Also, you splice sentences like a valley girl on crack. You have a finite verb in the imperative mood prior to your ellipsis. That is a complete sentence. You have a subject with a finite verb in the declarative mood after your ellipsis. That is a complete sentence. A semi-colon or a colon are needed to join two independent clauses; an ellipsis will not do it, no matter how hard you try.

For those of you getting your panties all in a not, you should seriously consider that this post is probably not the root of your problem, but the fact that you have forgotten whether your a male or female. The word "not" is a negative, not to be confused with the word "knot," which is a thing that one might tie with, for example, rope or panties. Also, as above, "your" is a possessive, and you clearly intend "you're," the contraction of "you are." I need not mention that your logic is atrocious — it's ad hominem, I guess, but pathetically badly executed, at that, demonstrating that you cannot even execute your fallacies well — but because I am annoyed with you, I will anyway.

Little advice, think about something else. As soon as I'm done writing this post, I will. By the way, this sentence would be a comma splice, except that the first part of it is a fragment, so I suppose it's just a horribly misplaced appositive. You can't put a noun in apposition to an entire clause, you dolt.
