    I agree that you do not need to have perfect grammar to post.  However, I do find some long posts impossible to understand through incorrect grammar.  It is also annoying when someone continually use words like "and I sayed" throughout a post.  If english is not their first language perhaps they could type out long posts in Word and spell check before cutting and pasting.

    Punctuation - who care??????????? The odd full stop is good and never start a sentence with And.


    I have read lots of long posts and yet have never had trouble understanding any of them they are all readable.

    So if your having a problem finding them impossible to read because of the incorrect grammar, who has the problem. ???
    You don't have trouble reading do you. ;)

    As I answered you before Vanoonoo it had nothing to do with the quote you presented I said NO and I meant NO.

    Who is SHE you refer to ???

    I have seen this book quoted many times on this site. ::)

    I have to admit that I thought you were referring to the quote on the 'bruce almighty' thread as well because that is where the book was mentioned and it's also where you had your first 'vent' about people complaining about grammar. It kinda just made sense I suppose.
