			Hm, it seems that whatever you do, there'll be dissatisfaction. If you start mass changes, the current readers, used to the old format, would rebel. However, in return, those who dislike the current format, currently not reading, may join the community. It feels like you're taking large risks, in return for a reward of uncertain magnitude.

			Uh, do we come from different parts of the world, with different English customs? Or perhaps reading Japanese translations has slightly changed my sense of English. To me, the phrase 'It's a promise with meǃ' makes perfect sense. Its meaning basically overrides a Naofumi's freedom of choice, and imposes a promise upon him regardless of his will. Quite common in Japanese syntax, I think. Your version, 'Promise meǃ', takes Naofumi's opinion into consideration, phrasing it as a request that can be either denied or accepted.

			I'm so jealous of you - my roommate was a sex addict who kept bringing in women. We had nothing in common...T_T

	Hi Todouǃ I reverted your edits for chapter 1 & 2, mostly because you were changing the general syntax. I'm sorry, but could you please not make such massive changes? Firstly, there will be 400+ chapters by the time the translation's done. You'll burn out. Secondly, some people like me, used to Japanese-translated English, prefer sentence structures closer to the original Japanese versions. Thanks![[Special:Contributions/128.101.13.249\|128.101.13.249]] 09:23, 17 March 2015 (~~CDT~~)		Hi Todouǃ I reverted your edits for chapter 1 & 2, mostly because you were changing the general syntax.

	Todou, I reverted your edits for 289 for similar reasons to the anonymous guy above. In my case, I just edit the chapters' grammar to the best of my ability, and move on. I don't do what you're doing because ~~first~~ I'm too lazy to edit so many chapters, and also out of respect for the translators' opinions. A displeased translator = Apocalypse. And, like the anonymous guy, many readers do prefer sentences closer to the Japanese structure. I think I might be part of that group.

			“It’s a promise with me!” (Raphtalia) -> “Promise me!” (Raphtalia)

			In cases like that, I usually just use the translator's opinion.

			Regardless, your edits seem to keep grammar in mind, and you clearly work hard. If you persist in editing, I welcome you.

			Hey, thanks for helping with those tips. I do appreciate it. I was just about to despair, and quit my helpful disposition when you came along. I had just edited one chapter several times, since the server kept refuting me edits. I'll take that as a sign to go on. Once again, thanks.
