Just an observation ...

[maria]

Lately I've been noticing a lot of usernames that contain the word "ASS".
And I enjoy playing bots.
I had a friend search for FIBS names that included the words "ASS" and "bot".
Here's the outcome:

ASS = 166

bot = 129

So as I have suspected for so long ... there are more ASSes on FIBS than there are bots!

Can someone translate that to English for me, Is it past, present, future, Present perfect continuous, Past perfect continuous...   Shall I create a poll?

"I`ve been doing this for a long time" : fibsboard counter says that my total time logged in is 5 days, 12 hours and 30 minutes. (In my mind, I feel I wrote this one it right, I will ask my son tho, if the grammar is correct)

I vote for past conditional pluperfect subjunctive.  Or I would have, if you had created a poll.

I thought your first language was English, diane, but perhaps I am mistaken!     I would translate my statement as in the present perfect tense, as if it matters, really.    

You must love me a lot to keep demanding my attention like this.     Or  !

My first language is English English, I guess - not American English   

The more usual construction there - and easier on the ear would be..'I have known'...but I can make allowances for the Americans

I admit it. I am the assbot(s). All I do all day long is make assbots just to piss everyone off. And its working. Now. What you gonna do about it?

You should try to do something about that stutter, though.

What st-stutter?

"I've been knowing this a long time" doesn't just mean "I've known this for a long time", but also hints at being aware of knowing it for all this time.

Which must be pretty exhausting

Yeah, well, we are an inventive nation and sometimes make up our own words, i.e., Urban Dictionary!

There are not too many people who can run such a query. May I ask who your friend is?
