I'm gonna post everything I see, one at a time. I'm reading it and typing it at the same time.

Here goes:

1. "This is the end" needs a period after "end".
2. In "Grunts,Elites,Jackals,and even...", there needs to be a space between each comma and the next word.
3. A rigid Colonel Havers stood in the front of the pelican,"Allright men, We've been in this platoon for a long time, I've seen yall grow up from maggots to men. I'm lookin' into each of yalls eyes and you know what I see? I see warriors, warriors wanting to kill,warriors wanting to make things bleed,to make things die! When your feet hit the dirt and the bullets start to fly,remember that you are marines! You do not die without permission from me! You kill,you don't get killed,I'll be right there with ya, Now let's get out there and do our job!"

Needs to be:

A rigid Colonel Havers stood in the front of the Pelican. "Alright, men! We've been in this platoon for a long time; I've seen y'all grow up from maggots to men. I'm lookin' into each of y'alls eyes and you know what I see? I see warriors, warriors wanting to kill, warriors wanting to make things bleed, to make things die! When your feet hit the dirt and the bullets start to fly,remember that you are Marines! You do not die without permission from me! You kill,you don't get killed! I'll be right there with ya! Now let's get out there and do our job!"

OK, I'm getting sick of this. You should know what is wrong, just proofread next time!

I'm not dissing u gasman but I consider anyone that doesn't use the code a n00b

USE THE CODE! Here it is for YOUR BENEFIT, since you didn't read the FF guidelines, like almost all newbies on this site. But that's okay, cuz I didn't either on my first fic. Anyhoo, here it is:

When you indent, italicize, and bolden your text in your word-editing program, it doesn't carry over to your FF. That's why you proofread and check for mistakes. Instead, do this:

to italicize a block of text, put [i] before the block, and [/i] to end it. To bolden, do [b], [/b], and underlining is [u], [/u].

Indenting helps seperate paragraphs. To put an indent, put a [indent] where you want it to show up.

Finally, for a horizontal rule, put [hr] between two paragraphs. A horizontal rule usually shows a change in time, place, or other major switch in the story.

Yeah, did you see the proofreading part? That'll help. I proofread every single one of my stories before I submit, and a few mistakes still get through.

Other than that, way too many grammatical, formatical, punctuational, and spelling mistakes. They make reading it a headache.

I dub thee 'n00b'. Make sure thy folklore be proper and well-written, lest thou face the flaming of many forum regulars.

PS: to wierd boy-

Yes, I know we should probably be out looking for girls. I try, but being a nerd, it makes it a teeny bit harder. But I figure when I meet the chick, I'll know she's right. Then I'll haul my butt off this site and stalk her :).
