I’ve been a member of this forum for a while now and one thing that I have noticed is the spelling and grammar is absolutely atrocious on some of these posts. I find myself reading and reading over and over again just to begin to comprehend what the poster is actually trying to say.
Is it too hard to check your spelling and mabye think about using a full stop or a comma. Maybe even capital letters at the start of a sentence? Just the basics, that’s all I ask.
Whenever you write a post, you know what you are saying. If your text is clear it makes it much easier for everyone else to read.
Breaker one nine…
Some people are dyslexic and find it difficult to put words together properly.
Some people are still trying to learn how to use a keyboard properly.
Some people type so fast that they may have typing errors.
Some people are just plain lazy.
Some people are a lot younger than others and may use different words.
Some people are not posting in their 1st language
And some people may not have received as good an education as others.
The point of this post is that many factors are involved with people who post on these forums.
Surely instead of moaning about them we should just “Live and let live” and have a bit of give and take.
No-one is perfect.
I copy pasted your post into Word and it found 6 grammer mistakes and 1 spelling mistake seems your not so perfect yourself either.
Maybe some people are not as well educated as yourself, or they are dyslexic, or they simply can’t be arsed to type correctly. Its not really your issue in any way, Its the internet and its just a forum, its not like your writing something important is it.

Seriously, this has been the subject of discussion quite recently on this site and I believe came up the this conclusion - As long as the person reading it can understand what you mean then “so what”
It does make things a little difficult for us older ones when the younger set use the mobile phone text type way and looking at a long post without paragraph spacing can seem daunting but neither is unreadable if a little time is spent on it.
One member pointed out that as long as the first and last letters of a word are correct then the sentence is readable -
A snteecne is rbadelae wehn the lttrees are all oevr the pacle

Very true, although it’s rare to see that style of writing on this site. IMO the vast majority of posts are understandable even if the grammer and/or spelling are not perfect so I can’t really see a problem.
