I think I understood, but if someone breaks the chain do I have to make a post longer than his? Or do I have to make a post longer (and without errors, of course) than the previous poster?

You have to make it as proper as you can but this is mainly for learning purposes so that we can all get on a nice conversation.
Consider this as a training in grammar my friend.
@Magnus
I am not exactly disqualified,i'm in the rules of this post a man who have lost but still can win if he learns from his mistakes and writes a proper sentence.

Also, there should be a "has" rather than a "have"

Thank you.
I want you all to come up with the most grammatical conversation you can show.

This thread really isn't asking me to do anything different from what I normally do. The only thing different is that I'm not using acronyms.

My friends,

I do despair...

To see the OP discourse so plainly, a reverent myriad of punctual placement and linguistic longevity.

So much so that even I, I whom so seldom speak with grammar nor punctuality. Must indeed post in this most auspicious of threads, In lieu of the more "common" posting.

Permit me then; If you will. To enquire as to the response of the next kind sir, who so innocently entered this thread, how will you respond?

However do forgive me gentlemen, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose!

And I must bid you fare well,

"Nor" should be "or" because there was no "no" prior to it.

"Nor" should be "or" because there was no "no" prior to it.

I have no idea what you mean "nor" is a usable word, its in the Oxford dictionary, and thesaurus.

[USABxBOOYO]

There should be a period or semicolon after "mean", "its" should be "it's" or "it is", and there should not be a comma after "dictionary".

What I meant about "nor" and "or" is that you cannot use the word "nor" the way you did because there is no "no" before it in the sentence.

its? Im not even bothering with the game atm.

Anyway I see what you mean regarding "nor".

"no you cannot! nor may you go ask your mother!"

But when i studied English literature...I dunno man, im pretty sure "nor" is not dependant on the use of "no" previously in the sentence.

I think that "nor" is a correct word in various sentences it's use is very big in some conversation.
"nor" is actually a shorter version of the word "neither" because it has the same use as "nor".

Think about it. Neither the word "neither" nor the word "nor" belongs in between "grammar" and "punctuality". "Nor" and "or" are not interchangeable words, you know.

That is right.
But in some cases people thinks like that.
Anyways don't rage now over each other.
This thread is supposed to have a "nice" conversation not arguing against each other about a word.
This threads meaning is to make people learn their own way through grammatical english.
I want this thread to make people learn some grammar in a very social way and talk in a strait way in a conversation.

I love potatoes. Do you guys like potatoes? I just love them. Theyre so great. You can make tons of different foods from them. Mashed potatoes, french fry´s and much, much more. I just love potatoes. I think potatoes are about as great as Pasta. But, I also quite like pasta. So, I really cant decide.

So, Correct grammar or not?
