i'm not taking the piss here, but some punctuation might help you get your point across.

in case you haven't got any on your keyboard, you might like to copy and paste these: . , - ;

Donkey Kong Emptier
The trick with this machine is to keep your finger on the cancel button before spinning the reels. This will give you Skill Nudges every time! (If it has not been chipped). There is more...

When you bring in a win and exchange, look to see if the Donkey Kong logo is blue, if it is then you can empty the machine very quickly. Take the Jackpot. Never hold any numbers, just bring wins in from nudges. This is because the "Blue Mode" will not be de-activated until you get a full number trail! If you dont hold any numbers then when you exchange from a win the feature will still be Blue!

Of course, if this dosent happen you can still win a lot of money, but just not as quickly.

Why not start reading some threads and get learning.

As the Cardinal has already hinted, if you could find the time to type in proper English instead of pathetic txt spk, you might, just might, receive a more positive response.

I echo the Card, also, there's been a swathe of noobs recently, who log in, post one message requesting everything we all know, and then calling us all...

Cocks
Tossers

...amongst various other genitalia / self-abusing-methods, because we don't spill all knowledge to them.

If you can appear to not fall into that category, you're more than welcome here... ;)

You're not though are you.

I am sorry if this is going off on a tangent for some members, but some half-arsed attempt at literacy really bugs people on forums. You are not limited to the length of your post on here - it is not a text message. Please use full words and CAPITAL LETTERS where they should be! You may think nothing of it, but it irritates the fuck out of people of a certain age!

Also, please explain the "2909" bit of your username. Do you share a birthday with me? :wink:

And I'm one of them!

'Txt speak' is a worrying, contagious habit that threatens to overtake the accurate use of the English language. The first posting in this thread contained more grammatical errors than I care to count; the lack of punctuation becoming almost incidental.

Make a sensible, intelligible posting and you may receive a positive response.

I agree


This is a sensible discussion board where intelligent people swap information using the queens english with accurate and non offensive language and punctuation.

And anyone who disagrees is a nob.
