No offense but is this reporter illiterate or does he just fail to grasp the complexities of the english language such as grammar and spelling.

more to the point, i can hardly read this.

Why dont you give him a break? He is here to have fun like the rest of you guys and if I can read it you sure as hell can. Now if you want to be a knit pick everything on the boards go right ahead but is it needed? No so get over it.

Unwarnted comments and such to be reported to Admin and I dont care if you are but it is comments like these that push people away from these games.

He´s a native speaker after all while several of the others are not (including myself). So nitpicking on a typo here and there would be nonsense but one should expect him to write things down in a way everybody else can understand him - without reading it ten times.

That´s not the case.

Reply grammar
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While bad grammar can be anoying...i got the point...spelling errors aside. Two notes i do wish to point out, its spelled Furious (a grand name for a carrier) and these two ships will be the most up to date carriers.....untill the Atlantian carriers Arrogant and Fearless are completed

The government of His Majesty strongly protests Autralia's announced intention of building 2 25.000 ts aircraft carriers. This would be in violation of the Treaty of Cleito. Iberia will not sign the Treaty if this infamous action continues.

[Player
II.
No aircraft-carrier exceeding 22,000 tons (22352 metric tons)
standard displacement shall be acquired by, or constructed by, for,
or within the jurisdiction of, any of the Contracting Powers.

Folks, these carriers are illegal as far as I can see.]

The Indian government - somewhat belatedly, given the distraction with Yemen - sees that the government of Iberia may be correct. The Furious class would exceed treaty allowances if laid down as purpose-built carriers; however, as conversions of existing hulls, they would be legal. We would seek clarification from Australia on which is the case.

Nonetheless, these two carriers would completely use Australia's total carrier tonnage, yet we understand there is a similar vessel - HMAS Hobart - already operational. Is it Australia's intention to delete HMAS Hobart once replaced by a Furious-class carrier?

If the carriers Austrailia plan to build are convertions then they are fine...if they are purpose built then they are indeed over the limit and in violation of the treaty.
