Posts in this thread must be written in passive voice

Author
Time

The rules in this thread were created by me. They must be obeyed or you will be reported. All sentences must be posted in passive voice. If sentences are written in active voice, the rules of this thread, and thus the rules of this site, have been violated. Repercussion will be felt!

Other than that, all subjects of discussion are permitted, as long as they are kept relatively clean. You are thanked in advance!

This thread is one to be fascinated by. It might not have longevity.

Your first sentence was well-written. The second one was, unfortunately, written in active voice. The rules were broken, and you have been reported, sir.

A learning curve is to be expected. You have been unreported and forgiven. It shouldn’t be allowed to happen again by you!

You should be reported. However, a learning moment will be seized. The sentence should have been written, “This thread is approved by TV’s Frink.”

A thread for only passive sentences is something to be admired. A thread for only passive-aggressive sentences should be created next.

This thread is being tested by this poster as to its level of enjoyment. The poster finds the thread’s enjoyment level to be somewhat lacking. If more were to participate, the enjoyment of this thread may increase.

Such a thread has already been created. However, its creator’s view in my eyes has improved lately, and so a link will not be provided by me here.

A great passive-voice user is not made by Yodaspeak 😜

Jedited: Reported for refusal to learn by you!

TV’s Frink thinks that darth_ender should not report TV’s Frink because TV’s Frink thinks darth_ender is…

TV’s Frink lost TV’s Frink’s train of thought.

Passive voice is not understood for certain by Warbler. It is hoped that Warbler has gotten this correct.

Your defiance is unappreciated and you again have been reported.

That being said, a great idea was used: a third-person only thread should be created!

Directed at Warbler…
Your post was written incorrectly, sir. However, as generosity has been shown much today, and effort has been exerted to comply, you are forgiven. If a lesson in passive-voice is desired, you will be supplied.

It is wondered by Warbler if his signature “*sigh*” post would be a violation of the rules of this thread.

This sentence was constructed beautifully. However, if a sigh is desired, the rules would be violated if typed in the usual fashion. It must be constructed something like this:

A sigh was breathed
