IMHO, not bothering to put in the little extra effort it takes to check your messages before submission is being rude to your fellow board members, who actually have to read them, in a "my time is more valuable than yours" kind of way.

This is a BBS, not a chat, btw. Even after having scrolled off-screen, postings remain for others to spend their time reading.
So sorry I have wasted your, and anyone elses time.

As you all know I dont give a sh*t..so dont fukken read my posts.

When is this gonna stop??????????

Really it's gotten out of hand...and until you and you know who you are.... can cease and decsist.....ha ha ha yeah I spelt it wrong to p*ss you off...

Good Bye.

Oh and one last.. FO

The point is that they don't know that they've got it wrong, so how are they gonna correct it? And what's more, they don't give a damn. So why do you waste your time and ours pointing it out?

Drunk, Sunsets. Morrisons have Oranjeboom on "buy one get one free". Gives me a hell of a hangover, but I have all morning to recover, after all. As for the people leaving and getting all het up, it's not supposed to be that serious, surely? Christ, if you can put up with all the sh!t Eldritch throws your way...

Y'all need to chill, fo' real.

I'm an editor, ffs, and even I think this grammatical one-upmanship has gotten out of hand. Honestly, if the misusage of language is really such a problem for you, the very last place you should be is the internet. Everyone makes mistakes, some more than others, but I'm not getting paid to correct you people so misspell and be merry, or damned!!!

No need to take it so seriously.

Thank you CorpPunk, let us now draw a veil over all this bad blood.

Does it REALLY bloody matter that much?

I find atrocious grammar & spelling irritating (I teach English & Latin, so after being a miserable pedantic cow 5 days out of 7 I can't switch it off) but I'd be the first to admit that that doesn't entitle me to sneer at it in other people.

Not everyone finds mastery of the English language to be an effortless process - if someone CAN'T spell/punctuate/use grammatical conventions 'correctly' & they're sensitive about their 'language blindness', then correcting them unasked is rude & offensive - & if conversely they couldn't give a s**t, it's entirely pointless.

That said - if the grammatical pedants amongst us want to score points off each other, in a 'good natured banter' type fashion, then bloody let 'em: it's harmless enough, surely? As is conducting a personal conversation on a message forum in fluent Pished - it's a free speech thing...
