Description Dylan Rhodes 2008-08-04 10:41:40 UTC

After registering with boom.squeezenetwork.com my Boom displays:

Your player is now registered, press RIGHT to begin!

This sentence has a grammatical error that's pretty common but nonetheless really irritating to grammar freaks. See "Comma Splices" on this page:

http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/grammar/g_clause.html

Fixing this is as easy as replacing the comma with a period:

Your player is now registered. Press RIGHT to begin!

Thanks, I should have known better. :)

Verified not fixed in DEVO.

After assigning a boom to my test.sn account, the boom still displays a "," instead of a "."
