So now it's the "Monthly Collectables FAQ"? Sounds like a lot of work, going through and editing it.

*stalk* ninja

Edit: Lawl, uber-stalk at under five minutes this time. Brings back the memories of Summer '05, when I stalked within a minute sometimes.

Druki, yer silly. *pets*

And actually, according to a thread in SF on the subject, "Collectible" and "Collectable" are both correct English and are interchangeable according to modern usage. mrgreen

Technically, "collectable" is the correct form, as that is the noun, while "collectible" is an adjective.

"It's a collectable."
"It's a collectible item."

But, as I said, these days they're totally interchangeable.

*pets s'more and scratches behind ears* biggrin

And silliness abounds. 3nodding

I'm a word geek, what can I say? I absorb etymology.

Well, with what she said, changing it was useless? xd

I think the new name is kinda weird; I still keep saying "Donation Item(s)" when I meant "Collectible Purchases" @.@;

Here's a question that always made me wondered: How on earth did you make your journal entries' background yellow? I've been told it's in the settings somewhere, but I've never had figured it out. o.O;

You'll have to change your signature image from "Donation FAQ stickie" to "Monthly Collectible FAQ stickie".
