DarthMelissa 03-26-2008, 03:47 AM Well, then people shouldn't use hat to dictionary dance.
Well, that would be a perfect world, which we know we don't live in. Unfortunately there will always be people that are going to push the envelope.
GraspingClaw 03-26-2008, 04:15 AM Hey guys, sorry for the lack of upkeep here. I actually had no idea it had been "brought back to life", so to speak, but I have been thinking about cleaning it up. I'll try to work on that tonight and bring the list up to date.
mickey0794 03-26-2008, 05:00 AM We need fetch! I joke around and say, that is so fetch. rofl
Also, they should add the word, "sooo" So we can make awkward "so"s
PrincessSofia 03-26-2008, 05:06 AM We need the word "sofa" again.
MsBored 03-26-2008, 05:30 AM What is making VMK not making us able to say coming?! Do people dictionary dance with it? What's the problem!
DarthMelissa 03-26-2008, 05:36 AM We need the word "sofa" again.
I can tell you right off that they will never add it back again, because the use that people were giving it was completely not VMK appropriate.
What is making VMK not making us able to say coming?! Do people dictionary dance with it? What's the problem!
I will give you the same answer MsBored. People do dictionary dance with it, and it is not appropriate for VMK. It's better to just not have it added to the Dictionary.

Just to be a pain, I think we should suggest that VMK add in Malificent, as it is the incorrect spelling and they have since fixed the pin to be the correct spelling.
Or is that too mean?

thMeli, I've gotta disagree with you. As you can tell from the posts on this thread alone, I'd say the majority of children (aka the largest group of players on VMK) have no idea why the word was removed. The vast majority of players in general did not misuse the word (I never saw it being misused, and I've been around since Day 1) and it's a very common and necessary word for every day conversation.
And here's my biggest argument for bringing back "coming". They still have "come" and "comes" in the dictionary. Obviously those words can be used in the same exact context that inspired them to remove "coming", so it makes absolutely no sense for VMK to remove a single version of it. If a player uses any word on VMK inappropriately, there should be consequences, but they should not punish the masses for the sins of a few. It's rather lazy and ineffective.
On a side note, I just finished going through the last couple pages of requests and added all of the words that weren't repeats or a little too out there. Now I just need to edit the list to reflect the words that have been added since my little vacation from the thread. After that, I'll do a better job of keeping on top of things. Promise. :)
Thriller 03-26-2008, 06:14 AM Nice suggestions.. although words slike ain't shuoldn't be added as they are encouraging improper engish. Beach- NEVER will be added back, unless vmk decides to start banning the people who misuse the words rather then removing the words. It was used in replacement of a cuss word, and many people would use it excessively.
Ain't is a word, but technically it isn't used for formal writing such a schoolwork, etc.
My words: Dictionary and Thesaurus
LIMODRIVER11 03-26-2008, 06:20 AM pwn is 'You just got owned!'
GraspingClaw 03-26-2008, 06:36 AM My words: Dictionary and Thesaurus
Dictionary is already in the dictionary, but I'll add Thesaurus.
Everything should be up to date now, so keep those suggestions coming! (Or as they say in VMK, "Keep those suggestions ###!")
TeddyYeti 03-26-2008, 06:52 AM Do they have pineapple in the dictionary? I likes me some pineapple.

Arg, no.. I actually saw those and added them, but I had a few different screens up so I could switch back and forth to see what needed to be added and I must have edited those on the other screen, and then saved the wrong one. That means I missed more than just the ones you quoted. *le sigh* I'll go back and get it fixed this evening.

Agreed, but I have seen those words used inappropriately many times. I always report the individuals when I see it happen. I'm just afraid that people would spread it like wildfire and it would be taken out of context a lot. For sure the people that are mis-using words should be punished and not the masses, but VMK doesn't like to operate like that.
Greenway 04-01-2008, 10:28 PM A few more words I have tried to use unsuccessfully:
rumor
acquainted
replacement
Greenway 04-03-2008, 06:41 PM Another few
terrific

pleasure
job
chore
choir
tangent
