Isn't the proper grammar "You were afraid" instead of "you was" ?

Either or to be honest. There is no fixed rule grammatically.

It's more a case of who you are addressing, rather than what you are saying in cases like this.

"You was" is more informal and is more of a direct statement of someone's circumstance or emotion, whereas "You were" is more formal.

It's also a cultural thing as Americans seem to favour were over was, and a lot of that seems to come from was feeling 'blunter' and more 'common' than were.

Go figure though, it's English lol

When @Pirate gives @hellsing9 access to the wordpress section, he can fix it up, but until then, he can do a draft of fixes and i will add them

I do think @hellsing9 did quite well considering English is his second language, an English dictionary on his web browser wouldn't go a miss though.

Everytime I see Sony tanking I do a little happy dance and think karma does happen, they stole OtherOS from us, ever sine then I've cheered quietly when bad things happen to Sony. Sony was once a great company and I never could see myself buying a 360 but after what Sony did I don't trust Sony worth a damn.

Everytime Sony announces a new product that sounds awesome, the first thought I have is , wait until they start disabling features they no longer like. when they do it won't be Sony's problem it'll be the people that paid their hard earned money only to get crewed over. I do everything I can to avoid giving my money to Sony...

I think my letter will be known more for the typo errors/grammar than the content in it.

:P
