No. That's the right way of writing it.
either way is right

it would've stayed offline if you guys would stop talking about it

I wish people would stop making these topics.


He or she or it is back up now

What is that pic from?
A video?
If so please link it, it looks creepy.

From the movie "Hobo With a Shotgun."

no, thats correct.

it would be Otis' because Otis's uses two Ss so its breaking a grammar rule


that said, would the plural of Otis be Otisi or Otises?
If it's a name it receives a 's regardless, however if it is just a thing it receives a ' after the s.

I also like how you speak of grammar when you are not even capitalizing nor are you using apostrophes nor are you ending your sentences with periods.

Check and mate.

It's correct to just use an apostrophe after a Biblical name with a terminal S, for some reason.

Fixed

it's "Otis's"

if you're going to correct someone's grammar, correct it so it's actually loving correct

according to literally the first page in Elements of Style, regardless of whether there's an "s" at the end (they list Charles and Burns) if it's singular, to make it possessive you add an apostrophe and an s (Charles's, Burns's).

stuff double post, meant to modify

I learned it was to be Otis' and not Otis's.
But if I were an English teacher I would accept either.
