ChrisFL Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 I received your email update today and thought this was funny: Spelling and grammar - I've had to disable posting privileges to a couple of people because it seemed that no matter how many times I asked them, they just could create legible posts. A couple of typos here and there are acceptable, but when you can't read what someone is trying to say, it's just not acceptable.

ChrisFL Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 I agree with that too, I may be new here, but Ive been a member of some automobile related message boards for a long time and most of them operate very well and don't tolerate that either. I just thought I'd point out something ironic and hoped it wouldn't upset anyone. I don't know you all, but seeing a lot of your site, you seem like really cool people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry_Gumball Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Yea. I've seen that in class a year ago. One of the most annoying things for me to see are Run-on sentences. It makes it really hard to understand what they're saying. Throw in some short-hand Text Messenger language and it makes it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movieguy Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Yeah, I'm glad people here are at least making an effort to promote good typing here. I've been to other forums where everything's gone completely to hell, with all the netspeak and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
