If you really have to use that (which I really hope you don't, but who knows), it is a contraction of 'you all', not 'ya will'. The correct (if such a word can be applied in this situation) form is y'all.
Grammar Nationalist is back!

As it is a non-mainstream-English word (for lack of the proper terminology), it is not a contraction of anything, but rather a word in its own right.
Therefore ya'll is acceptable.

But it is a contraction. It's a contraction of 'you all'. I don't know what you mean by this post. That's like saying 'can't' isn't really a contraction, it's just a word, so it's equally OK to say c'ant.

The correct term for this type of person is [CENSORED]

Back on the slightly off topic, yes there is a game called Phalanx, play it, but play the GBA version, the SNES, Sharp x6800 and wii ware versions are inferior. Expect a glorious shoot em up.

Back on topic: I have no idea what your frigate looks like, but my advice before you post anything, is make sure you use colour well, many people seem to skip this when building their first ships, I still do this on my ships, and it is a bad habit to shake

Yes, I know what a brony is, no I am not one... but if you are I wont screw with you. Anyways... why grammar fascism?? Sure, that was wrong... But who really cares, it is not such a big deal. Also, yes, I plan on making detailed turrets... and ships in general.

Making a grammatically incorrect post here is like declaring you're american at an islamic festival.

Not everyone will care, but those that do are going to saw your cranium off with a dull knife.

UGH. Again, i know that was grammatically incorrect... but hey, live and let live, huh? Actually, when I don't have a rare mistake, like that one everyone is talking about, I am kind of a grammar nationalist myself. Also, development on the fleet has been delayed... I was sick yesterday and I still am recovering.
