Competiton: Mozilla's 200,000th Bug

Posted by CmdrTaco on Tuesday November 5, 2002 @12:42AM from the does-chimera-ssl-hanging-count-as-a-bug dept.

An anonymous reader writes "MozillaZine is reporting that Mozilla's 200,000th bug will soon be reported. Not terribly exciting in itself, but they're running a competition to guess the exact date and time that the bug will be reported to Bugzilla, Mozilla's bug reporting tool. The prize is a Mozilla 1.0 CD that might actually be worth something one day. Anyone can enter, so let's see if we can have a Slashdot winner (we can all share in the glory)! To help you, they're up to 178,325 and 51 bugs have been filled today. (NOTE: Although almost 200,000 bugs have been reported, there are not - and have not been - that many bugs in Mozilla.)"

Well, that's a grammatical error and shows a lack of understanding of the English language. Which can be excused for non-english speakers, but not for native speakers. Spelling mistakes are more often than not typos.

Grammatical errors just make me think the writer is stupid, and therefore the comment has little merit.

Note for the stupid:

They're having a party.
Their party was crap.
The party is over there.

See the difference? No? Well you're (that's short for "you are") stupid then. Here endeth the pointless lesson.
