Incorrectly using speech marks instead of quotation marks upsets him quite a bit as well.
"Single or double quotation marks are used to denote either speech or a quotation. Neither style is an absolute rule though double quotes are preferred in the USA, but a publisher’s or even an author’s style may take precedence. The important rule is that the style of opening and closing quotes must be matched."
(In German, single quotation marks are only used as inner quotations marks.)
Originally posted by DoctorScribblesI am also concerned that our minority community was not consulted before such an appointment was made. There seems to be quite a few White South Africans in positions of power at RHP, but not a single member of the minority community. I would ask what steps are being taken by the Admins to insure adequate representation of blacks like Cribs in authority positions here?
As a black man, I obviously have concerns about a white man from South Africa being appointed to a position of power on my favorite website. What assurances can RHP give me that I need not fear any racial mistreatment from this new moderator?
