Yes, I'm also really sorry... English is not my
birth language, and sometimes... I think people doesn't
understand what I'm trying to say. Maybe I just don't make
myself clear.

I really liked your game; I know
that I should take a careful look at the things I
write, but... everybody has some flaws of character, and
that one (the fact that sometimes I forget to check my
English grammar, syntax and vocabulary) is one of mine.


I really wonder... does my English really sound so
un-English to you? (and not only to you, but to other people
in the club?). That would be quite a problem, being
the case that I'm studying English Philology and that
I hold a Cambridge Proficiency Degree....
whoops.... (btw, I'm Spanish)

Finally, as I have
said, I enjoyed your game a lot. I was trying to
compliment you; sorry if you understood it as offensive or
hurtful...
I'm really sorry.

I hope there won't
be any further misunderstanding between you and me.
I really would like to call you "net-friend", as I
do with all the people in the club that I have
talked to... (Oh, Gods! Here go down the drain my hopes
for clarity of expression!).

Finally, I
promise I won't ever tell you you need a
slap.

Quite embarrassed about all this mess,

Adban De
Corcy
