C214: killed message
« on: March 06, 2013, 09:56:30 am »
As shown i  this post: https://my.afterworld.deelogic.net/survival/tech-forum/crit-dmg-calculator-error/msg6653/#msg6653 by Mantra - the killed message is badly formed.
The sentence says "You was killed by ..." the correct English is "Your were killed by ...."

Your English is good :)

Survival says "You was killed by ..."
It should say "You were killed by ...."


(The English language is crazy anyway by having a different words for 1st person & 2nd person past tense).
