That hadn't been what Jim was thinking about

[Pacifica]

I read the first option somewhere, and, though it didn't sound wrong to me, it occurred to me that I would probably have put it differently — as in the second option. Then I wondered if I was wrong and thought I'd ask what people on here think.

 

[Bitmap]

Not sure what to vote for ... intuitively, the second option sounds better to me, but I find option 1 kind of acceptable.

 

[Hawkwood]

Surely they're both correct it's just a matter of context as to verb tense.

 

[Hawkwood]

Hmm, maybe should have pressed context option now as opposed to them being both equal. Can I redo it?

 

[Hawkwood]

Wow. That's actually annoying as I can't alter it.

 

[Pacifica]

If there's a way to change it, I don't know it.

 

[Hawkwood]

Can a mod do it?

I'm crap at grammar as it is so any injustices (like above) are almost like a double-injustice to me.

 

[Pacifica]

Can a mod do it?

I don't know; maybe. Cinefactus?

 

[Hawkwood]

Well at least it doesn't expose my name in this poll so sod it, let it be.

 

[Hawkwood]

You should do more of these, Pax.

 

[Pacifica]

It's not like questions like this occur to me every day but I suppose I could seize an opportunity now and then.

Second option sounds way better to me though I guess the first option works as well and I think they mean slightly different things

There is no way that I know of to change it.
