Then what makes

For the record, yes, the game has slipped into and we will have an official confirmation of the delay on the 10th of December. It was supposed to be announced in October, but circumstances out of our control postponed it. And for the end, a bit of friendly advice: If lack of communication is so bothersome just ask for a refund and be done with it. That did not go down well. Comments underneath the post quickly filled with backers taking Peklar up on his offer and asking for refunds.

Here are some examples:. That post was completely out of line. I not only back because of the game, I back the people behind it. And they just went on and on and on. I take full responsibility for the last update that you received from our KS yesterday. I quickly and haphazardly read through the draft of the update and in all my wisdom approved it. Reading through again it was clear that the hostile tone it was written in should not be how we should express ideas or plans to people that help us out.

We may be tired, confused and frustrated at our own ineptitude, but there is no reason to lash out at you. For that I personally apologise. I will do my best for this kind of outburst not to happen again. Then indicates time or consequence, as in the following examples:. Than is a conjunction or preposition used to indicate comparison: he likes bagels more than I like bagels.

Is it He likes bagels more than I , or He likes bagels more than me? Traditionalists will argue that than is a conjunction, and that the pronoun in the subordinate clause should be in the subjective case I , he , she , we , they : h e likes bagels more than I.

However, in informal communication, than is often treated as a preposition, and the pronouns in the second element are in objective case me , him , her , them : h e likes bagels more than me. Or does he like bagels more than he likes me? To avoid confusion, your best bet is to use than I or than he , than she , than we , than they in formal and professional settings, and reserve than me along with than her , than him , than us , than them for informal speech.

The best way to remember the difference between the two is to associate then with time and order and than with any form of comparison. Take a look at this example: Carlos is taller than his brother. There is no other word that can fill the role of than. However, in I drove to the bank and then went to the store the word then can be substituted by subsequently , to name one example.

The answer is than. Then refers to a specific point in time. Than is comparing the time of the phone call to 7 pm and cannot be substituted with another word.
