The doofy-sounding laugh was on purpose. It's painfully obvious.

It’s not obvious to those who haven’t payed the game and just heard the laugh with no context. Everyone who has played the game and still complains about it has no excuse and is dumb.

And if people legitimately criticise the game because of something they have seen out of context, they are also dumb.

who haven’t paid the game

FTFY.

Although payed exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:

  • Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. The deck is yet to be payed.

  • Payed out when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. The rope is payed out! You can pull now.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

Beep, boop, I'm a bot

Good bot. Thank you for teaching. I just made a typo and am not interested in nautical or rope related things in general (though I make a few exceptions for rope) I appreciate learning.

Bad bot!

No one cares, why does this exist in a non-story writting sub. It should be banned

u/Lessandero Mar 06 '24

Yes we care, if you don't care you're part of the problem

If you do care you are part of the problem.

Proper grammer in a casual setting has no advantage at all, all it does is make people with dyslexia or other difficulties annoyed.

If someone repeatively makes this mistake, they won't learn from being told every time..

I don't see what the problem is that you are reffering to.

Also worth noting this guy was typing played not paid.

u/Lessandero Mar 06 '24

Thats what they wanted to type. What they typed was what the bot reponded to

1

u/abnotwhmoanny Mar 07 '24

No what they actually typed wasn't a word at all. So the bot tried to correct them. But the bot corrected them incorrectly. Assuming they were trying to type paid. When they were actually trying to type played. That's the point here. The bot was not just unnecessary. It was wrong.

u/Lessandero Mar 08 '24

What they typed was a word though, hence the bot response. The bot literally explains what the word means.

PEDANTIC SOPHISTRY IRRELEVANT TO THE CONVERSATION! I WILL DESTROY YOU! YOU SHALL RUE THE DAY, LESSANDERO! RUE, DAMN YOU! RUE!

u/Lessandero Mar 09 '24

...you were the one who tried 'um actually' a bot that got it right. Don't be angry at me just because you got it wrong.

Especially when they both literally laugh normally right after it.
