I move that we keep the Nazism out of introduction threads as well to keep new members from thinking that we're a bunch of pedantic assholes, or at least to delay that thought.

This is a good idea.

To correct me, you must first join the Grammar Nazis. If you join now, I'll still give you the point.

Oh gee whiz I have this inherent discomfort for things about Nazis out-side a historic perspective. I don't mind watching documentaries about WWII and Nazis, but I feel uncomfortable hearing Nazi Jokes, or calling people Nazis, Grammar Nazis, Soup Nazis etc or calling me self a Nazi or Grammar Nazi. I think I'll pass. I'll hide out in the safe zones for now.

I'm going to go with lack of capitalization and call it a day.

Trollheart already corrected your grammar, so you're also disqualified, which would make your correction of my grammar invalid.
Batlord when you rake me over the coals it's like foreplay.

That quest is also worth it because of the reward you get.
Spoiler for The reward:
The Backwater rifle. The almighty medium range small gun in the game.
Spoiler for Stats:
With max luck it criticals ****ing 90% of the time, and if that's not enough, it uses 10mm rounds, which is just incredible.

Best quest ever.

Point Lookout is hard as **** though. The game designers cut a few corners and if you go in with a max level the enemies can do stupid stuff like ignore your DR and..GODDAMN those enemies wielding the double barrel! damn them straight to hell!!
Good news is you can return from it technically at any time, (for an exorbitant fee), but you nontheless can return, which is in stark contrast to all other DLCs.
Your ****ty run-on sentence, with its overuse of the word "and", and almost complete and utter lack of commas, has now been critiqued by the Grammar Nazis. Let this be a lesson to you, One-Whose-First-Language-Is-Clearly-Not-English.

How about I get out my red pen, so we can get down to proofreading?
