It's been bugging me.

The forum point score thing/level/rating description of "Has much to be proud of". I cannot abide to see a sentence ending in "of".

Can someone please amend this serious issue? [mad]

I had thought it might be, but I didn't want to risk someone else getting the Picky Grammarian Of The Day award.

I'm also very disappointed that no one has accused me of a typo with my reference to "Muphry's Law" ;)
