Re: CAG has had an almighty 'upgrade'

It would be in order to correct/help another with their grammar or spelling if they were posting, say a witness statement or potential defence.

A misplaced comma, or a spelling error could in those circumstances make a difference to the meaning.

That sort of help should be sought and welcomed.

Vdr

Just as long as you don't mix up the words "to" and "too" annoys the crap out of me lol, makes me shout at the lappy screen.

Re: CAG has had an almighty 'upgrade'

To correct anothers grammar on the web is a big no no

In 99% of cases very true.

The web is about communication. Or should be.

OOps shot in foot comes to mind as that post will almost certainly make members aware that there is somewhere else to go

You know what they say there's no such thing as bad publicity

Here's a cheery post from the ever friendly Bookworm. Posted, inappropriately enough, in a thread entitled "What made you smile today"...



So all you newbies can now rest easy in the knowledge that you are considered to be "rejects". :tinysmile_twink_t2:

I really don't understand how people get off on pulling people up for things like that?

OK. If it was the website forum of the National Grammar, Spelling and Punctuation society, then fair enough.....

OTR and other similar forums are there to help on Consumer/debt/other issues.

Unless the content of a post makes things unclear, then who gives a whatever?

I post here and elsewhere to try and help people. No other reason.

Re: CAG has had an almighty 'upgrade'

and that my friend is one of the reasons i left may not be a big deal for many but for me it is as i often spell wrongly due to the brain heamorrage i had there were many poster ticking me off for this so where possible i would edit those posts

To be honest it was trivial because those posts i made were understandable and at least i used paragraphs
------------------------------- merged -------------------------------
i hope that this site can be more forgiving as spelling really is not my fault as to me the words look right when i read it back

Re: CAG has had an almighty 'upgrade'

Having read Bookworms latest offering I have to admit she does come over as a very nasty individual.

However to also stand by what I said earlier( to a certain extent), I think for someone to put that amount of effort and aggression into that type of post and indeed to even bother making them at all, there has to be something *bigger* underlying it and this is just an outlet for her anger.

Anyway I am taking the pledge now; I will never again post anything GAG related, unless of course it is to direct someone to something there that will help them.

Who else will take:beagle: the pledge now?

Dammit. I really should spell check before submitting a post.
