forum facts for the truly peculiar, supremely dedicated, and profoundly detailed
helloooooo i made this thread because i keep finding weird facts about useless stuff around this site and people found it funny so im putting it here

this random stuff is mostly things that no one ever needs to know
i'll add more as i find it, but if any of you noodles has a good one, please post it! i would love to see!
...
caprafalconeri
only thing is, i dunno if me double posting in here allowed unless this is a solo thread
hm.
with that in mind, i suppose i'll edit my statement from the previous quote box: if any of all yall pretzels has a random fact they find enjoyable, please owl it to me with the subject 'forum fact' and i will add it here with credit to you!
to be clear then for staff members, this is technically a solo thread and i will be the only one posting here

shop item errors!
i looked through every single place it was possibly possible to buy items from and listed down every item that had a grammatical error or inconsistency in it. i have posted these to the english errors and spelling mistakes thread, hut nothing has been done about any of them. i believe the staff must be rather annoyed with me (i did a similar critique of another thread).
here i will list the numbers of items that had problems and link the specifics (which will take you to the post i made in the aforementioned thread)

heres one i gathered earlier today:
kim sato has more posts in his ency than anyone else at 77! he is followed by colin mccoire at 36.
quite a drastic difference between the winner and runner up. congratulations to both of you! you made my jaw drop at the sheer number one could possibly post in ones own encyclopaedia!
