Please stop using "slashes" in news articles

Seriously guys, get some new vocabulary.

In your latest price "slashing" article http://mybroadband.co.za/news/cellular/13007-MTN-slashes-call-rates-for-World-Cup.html the "slashing" amounts to prices being around 10% less. :erm:

Freedictionary.com has a definition of "7. To reduce or curtail drastically"
and drastic as "1. Severe or radical in nature; extreme"

who did what now?

 

[Datura]

Touchy.

 

[Anthro]

No no, no touchy on my studio

 

[radicool]

Yes, "slightly grazes" would be more suitable!

"slashes" is probably a keyword mybb uses in their search engine rankings. Let it be. You're be pedantic.

lol probably why he's complaining? cos his own site doesnt rank and its one of his keywords or something. lol "rorz0r slashes at MyBB for using to many slashes in their slashing articles."

 

[rorz0r]

Yes my site called "Dont take a slash on me on my studio" is losing hits because of MyBB...

No just frustrated because I see a article "MTN *slashes* rates for world cup" and think "oh goody" and then read the article and wow a whole 10%! That means I can talk for 1 minute and 6 seconds instead of 1 minute. OMG what will I do with the time...?

In other news WebAfrica SLASHed prices of the prepaid shaped from R70/gb to R69/gb.

Be be be be.

Translation: You are probably right
(using be to mean whatever I want it to mean)
