Tip On Writing Posts!

[SiNiSteR]

I don't mean to sound like a tool or a teacher but it is all too common nowadays for people to write on internet posts USING THEIR OWN INTERNET language. I know most people are too lazy to correctly grammaticize a sentence or paragraph but it is so important you do so! I cannot count the number of posts I have read in my years on my boards and more and more people don't make any sense in what they are trying to convey to the readers, and it is incredibly ANNOYING! If you are explaining something or helping a fellow board member then try to speak the english language and not use some internet lingo or your AIM slang that so many like to do. It would help us all..

Damn grammaticize is a proper word. Thought I caught you. lol. Welcome to the forum.

Perfect example. Anyways there some people that don&#39;t speak good English, but most of them just have thier own language of some sort.

But I agree with you, I even tend to skip posts from members who are writing unintelligible.

hehehehe, all this talk about grammar makes me alert for mistakes. I&#39;ve already spotted a few but I&#39;d rather not mention it.
