immediately would be a better choice of word, rather than right now.

Spider, TNT, in no way this is meant to offend you, I am just pointing something out.

In se there is nothing wrong with the use of your grammar, but when you write a post it is often constructed as spoken English. TNT hardly ever uses paragraphs apostrophes or a capital letter when referring to the first person singular.
Spider does the same thing, does use paragraphs but has a weird way of putting his punctuation.

People who read, like Liam, J&#39;Pol, clocker, pay much more attention to that, and I think that they don&#39;t even have to think about it anymore, it&#39;s an automatism.

A post well constructed with a little attention for image, punctuation, etc...is much nicer to read. Especially for people who aren&#39;t used to reading English that much.

Dude, another misconception.
I have learn that in paragraphs, you drop a line and indent(which is how it should be done) and not to drop a line completely and start on the 2nd line down.
It just so happens that if you press &#39;Tab&#39; button for paragraph as you would in word, it just scrolls you down to the bottom of the page on Klite.
So if you read more clearly/had knowledge of this particualr thing, your "TNT hardly ever uses paragraphs" is clearly wrong.

[J'Pol]

You are arguing the minutiae of indenting paragraphs with someone for whom English is a second language.

(I&#39;m talking to Skweeky here btw )

[Spider_dude]

Might i add indentations are the old way of doing things. if you want to get any where in the business world drop the indentation, it is old and outdated.

Seems a bit like tautology to me.
