A claim should be a statement, not a question.

...And leaving off punctuation does not make it a statement :P
It should also be about something that more than you just know. If you want to post something that is really specific about you or another claimant, give us proof: if bob has a kitty, and you want to claim that bob has a kitty, well, in the description, show us a picture of bob's kitty.
Lastly, if you are making a claim specific to someone (or yourself) use thier OpenID. Using the the word "I" implies whoever is voting, and is used for general claims:
bob@OpenID has a kitty. - specific to bob
I have a kitty. - now you can find out who on jyte has a kitty.

This claim is ripe for the 'tag police'
Lemme see if i can call it before V. He's gonna say 'culture' should be added to the tags.
well done, citizen.
Also, I'm sure my associates at the Bureau of Claims would also like to point out that this is essentially a duplicate, and that there are things in the description that should be their own claims, such as the I vs ID clarification, and the bit about "not something only you know".
c.f. bylaw 11778
I know this is not only something I know. But, when I see several offenses, it inspires me to send out a reminder. Chances are that people who are making said offenses are also not going to get back to previous claims where such things are mentioned. Have stuff like that on the "Make a claim" page but solve the problem, but for now, its what we have.
O rly?
I think you misundertood me, Jaime -- i meant that your bit about stuff only I know should be a separate claim.
oh, I see!
