Can I point out how unprofessional the writing style is? "Cops", "miscreants", "crew", "ne'er-do-wells"?
Now yes, journalists gonna journalism, but this is just bad writing. I would expect this kind of writing in casual conversation, not a publication.
- dordoka 4y agoI would not only expect, but demand that kind of writting on The Register.
- Latty 4y agoUsing common, well-understood terms is bad writing?
- cjrp 4y agoThat’s The Register’s style.
- SCdF 4y agoIt's The Register's schtick. I don't get the appeal either, but they've been writing like this for decades. It's like they got their writing inspiration from 90s gaming magazines and never looked back
