• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    What do you think of fellow forumgoers? (Again!)

    SURE WHY NOT. I'm in love with opal I guess, I'm in best Neofriends with Eifie, I don't hate Butterfree promise, Mewtini is my new best Cilanfriend (very prestigious rank), Dannichu is still a big favourite and maybe wins through tenacity, and Keltena and surskitty are my number ones for...

    I think people are generally a bit shy of admitting they find the internet interesting because no it can't be taken seriously ever you have to be chill!!! but it is interesting! I remember this old linguistics textbook I had that found like late 90s-era chatspeak to be the most fascinating thing...

    me too a bit, omg most embarrassing period of my life. I was never particularly bad, just sort of vaguely scornful at things at friends of mine who would use ~chatspeak or whatever (wow there is literally nothing in the world that bothers me less than chatspeak nowadays (though I don't really...

    But... you were literally just asking how sarcastic tildes function! And you're just coming off as really not getting how informal writing works. If it just happened to annoy you that would be fine but the fact that you're this confused about why people do it makes it seem like you don't...

    Photo Finish: It is mostly a sarcastic emphasis, yeah! I find tildes really useful, because people tend to complain that sarcasm is hard to read through writing! The thing about things like this is that people just start using them and then they organically start meaning different things and...

    nope people can write however they like! I don't really get what the issue is because informal writing is very often all about representing natural, casual speech! I'm pretty sure Chal used the conjunction because it just felt pretty natural to do that. Quirks of writing are interesting...
