I could be pushing my neck out here, but I think all those apostrophes are correct...

I hate the things anyway, never know where to put them!

Nice? mean? you mean in dialogue, right? Well, dialogue will affect her remaining in your group I'm sure, then again I don't know. It could just as easily only affect the possiblities of a romance with her. However, as stated, whether you care about the rep points or not is moot. The fact is Viconia care's a great deal about rep points. Particularly if they get too high. The more popular and liked you are by the rest of the world, the less she'll want to be anywhere near you. Being an evil character she will leave when you make too many Good alligned quest decisions. Do your best to maintain a ballanced middle of the road Rep. and she'll stick around. If you start seeing prices go down in shops, she'll probably run off on you.

<span style="color: lightblue">Apostrophes mark possession (except in its, his, hers...) and contractions (including it's). "Comma's" is neither, and should be "commas".

Just for clearness' sake: I'm having a real hard time figuring out what you're trying to say with the lack of capital letters and excessive use of comma's.

What about your excessive use of apostrophes? Just what does belong to the entity known as comma? :D Sorry, my posts are awful, but I just thought a gramatical error in a post criticising grammar was too good to pass up!!

[img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] ) I'll leave my error out in the open for everyone to see. As a non-native speaker I think I'm doing alright, though. You should see my first posts here, they were full of grammatical errors. It just pains me sometimes to see them (as well as my first signature, which is just horrible! :D ).

I expect your English is better than my Dutch and Flemish. Anyway it is one of the most common mistakes for native English speakers. :D
