Okay, if you are going to take the time to post to the forum, please take the time to correct it. I'm getting really tired of reading a post 10 times to make sure I understood it correctly just because someone is too lazy to use proper english.
As to your question I don't have the answer but hopefully the others will.

Hi soldier4jesus2099, MTS (multi tank syndrome) is not really a disease. It's just a joke about people becoming addicted to keeping tropical fish and purchasing numerous tanks.

Regarding other posts:
Gentlemen and ladies we have people as young as 10 years old who post here. Their grammer is not going to be that great. We also have people that post from around the world. They may not be very fluent in English, especially in writing, given some of the unusual rules in the english language. Being older or having a college degree doesn't necessarily make you smarter. I've met a lot of educated idiots in my day. So, let's try to consider who may be posting and use some civility.

I would personally argue that anyone sophisticated enough to use "soldier4jesus," including the clever "4=for" pun, is probably pretty fluent in English.

Either that or his parents are.

Also, I don't think I've met too many 10 year olds who describe themselves as a SOLDIER for anything.

I would agree it's probably mean to call people "lazy," it's also probably fair game to say, "hey, we can't help you unless you nail the syntax, people."

As for me, I got soul but I'm not a .... Sorry.

Look, I didn't mean to start a debate over this, so please lets skip that, but I would like to know what this "kid" is talking about every once in a while.
