Re: Penalty Charges Newsletter
thanks righty,
Don't get me wrong, i know Stephen is not rigidly worried about people who criticize his spelling, and yes i have on occasion had a bit of a laugh with him over this, then again i know Stephen quite well and there was at the time a mutual respect between us, and it was accepted. However this was done in jest on MSN which is entirely different from a online forum where a post can hang about and continue to be raised for all to see, this is what i find unacceptable. It's just another form of bullying but be clear in no way am i saying that this has happened here.
I do have to admit that this is one of the many reasons i no longer take such a active role in these forums, in fact this is one of the only reasons i re-registered as it is a major bone of contention for me, and admin and mods should be aware of it.

like anything else as far as public anouncements go This can only be done if the facility is there, it clearly wasn't for Stephen, and don't anyone come up with it's on your pc or website because you know already that if you spell something wrong up to 3-5 different words come up now how does someone with dyslexia know what spelling to put in ??? because if they knew that they would be able to spell it.
everyone
Stephen did say it was sent out in a hurry and to be honest Stephen used to have almost everything proof read before sending out this was usualy done by his partner in crime Natasha. They have 3 kids and as he say's 2 of them are Students, Stephen runs his own firm and as far as i'm aware Natasha works also................................so spare a thought for the guy before anyone critisizes him.

I do however think that in public announcments, emails etc that represent a site it should get checked over first. i know i've made some clangers in the past, and we had a bit of a row on here cause i spelt something wrong in a letter to lloyds, and errors in the old CAG newsletters used to get well attacked.
