Reply to comment by Due_Avocado_788 in It's sorta better for everyone when a stalker isn't caught/seen by Due_Avocado_788

Thank you for taking the time to explain! I actually know how to use both of these terms, it's just that I am actually very tired and didn't notice misusing the second one. Even after you pointed it out, I still didn't notice the second "than" and tried to explain how my first one is correct. I am not sure if it was autocorrect or I misspelled it manually without thinking. I apologize, and thank you once again for pointing it out!

Also, as another side note, I believe that using a comma after the word "but" would be more grammatically correct, as there you begin another sentence. Hope this helps!

Will go to sleep now! Good knight!

While you're right the general rule is that commas should be where pauses are, it's not always the case :)

Sorry to upset you, I saw you posting in a Spanish speaking country so thought you'd want to know. Clearly not :)

Well, that's what I remembered from the english classes at school. I went to local english competitions and always scored among the top 3 (except one time in which for some reason I scored incredibly low) .

Also, I am not a spanish speaker, you might have confused romanian with it.

And you didn't really upset me in any way. I saw this as an exchange of opinions and knowledge. Nothing to get upset about.
