Hi guys,

I'm gonna be a grammar Nazi and say the quality of some of the posts on this forum has got to the point where people are having to ask for them to be reworded.

All this does is waste time and clog up the threads.

If you happen to b sum1 hu talks lik diz bcos its faster could we PLEASE just put a little more effort into our posts? It's going to save you time in the long run because you won't have to explain yourselves.

The biggest problem is lack of commas and full stops.

It will make the forums easier to navigate and it really helps people's perceptions of you too.

Rant over,

CB

Seriously though I completely agree I looked at a post last week and it was just a big block of words I didn't bother reading just cause of the lack of grammar.

You too have opened yourself up to rectification without noticing it Mysterious.

I 100% agree, there's no excuse, especially if you use Google Chrome as it has a spell checker built in.

Yes, yes, so many times; YES.

When people misspell words that have been correctly spelt in previous posts I die a little inside.

Haha, Chuckles.

I highly doubt this will effect other threads, this will have been forgotten by 12 tonight. Or moved too far down the list.

Add a spell check to the styles box?

It made me feel better :p

Google Chrome has a spell check built in, could be an idea to promote that more to forum users!

I don't know how hard it would be for a spell checker to be put in place, but it can't be that hard?
