Wrong.
Pertinent = ..having a clear decisive relevance to the matter.

So...he said for the hard of understanding types "May I be clear and decisive enough to relevantly suggest...." bha bha bha.
Not saying I agree with him....just commenting. |

Not saying I agree with him on the other stuff....just commenting. No, he was just incorrect, and I assume meant to say: "Would I be impertinent to suggest..."
Adjective + Infinitive constructions are typically used to express feeling or reactions: "I was happy to receive your nudes". I can't think of other constructions, really. |

The English language can often be ambiguous at the best of times and many such utterances of whatever flavour can now be argued as acceptable by some. Not to mention the official dictionaries accepting all kinds of nonsense now as real.
I hear much in conversation these days I disagree with, but it is passed off as 'common usuage' etc.
There are now more non-native speakers than native ones...haha.

Of course people may have better fits, but it works well for me...
- I like one Drone Damage Amplifier II in the lows, in lieu of the third IHU II. Also tweak the PG/rig situation and fit a polycarbon for sooper fast align AND additional cloaked sublight velocity. I roll a throwaway clone with a 1% ice cycle implant a pull a block in 61.5s. If you are using a Prospect to mine ice you are doing it wrong. |

20 seconds after start mining then a bunch of rats turn up and as I'm in my Prospect then have to bail to the station.....and get my combat ship to go clear the belt again. Get to the belt in my combat ship and the rats have disappeared, even if I hang there for a minute or two they don't show back up.
So, go back to get my mining ship and go back to the belt to mine and the rats turn up again 20-30 second after I start mining....rinse and repeat.
Very annoying tbh CCP.
May I be pertinent to suggest that if rats turn up in a belt they should stay there for a while. Is that asking too much?
Yes, many will say what's the problem, miners should have a hard time etc......but this sucks
Next time contact CODE., they are specialists when it gets to ratting, mining, etc., they will ensure that you are protected from rats at all costs. |
