neutral  Juan Jacob: Yes, and why another answer? That's Jacob.

  -> Your answer is correct in meaning, but it lacks the informal tone and register of the source. Why another answer? Well, it's a different answer. Besides, there are 1,000 ways to skin a cat. This is what this forum is about: diversity and discussion.

neutral  philgoddard: You should agree with Juan Jacob rather than posting synonyms.
10 hrs
  -> What you're suggesting is actually a violation of the Kudoz rules. I don't appreciate your comment.

neutral  Christian [email protected]: I always like getting synonyms and additional options, but I do like Jacob's better.
19 hrs
  -> That sounds like a personal comment to me, rather than a "linguistic evaluation" of my answer. That's a violation of the Kudoz rules.
