Jeric 46,851 August 24, 2016 Share August 24, 2016 At the bottom of all sub-forums is this message. I'm no expert, but shouldn't it say "This forum is led by"? If I'm wrong, then sorry for wasting your time. :3 Dropping 'to be' verbs in this way is common enough to be considered a colloquial form of linguistics when the message is trying to convey simple information. I find it amusing because professional or polished authors usually try and obliterate words like is and were in a sentence. I'm sure that isnt the reason why, but I like to think the person who wrote that text shared a common disdain for passive and soft verbs like 'is'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
