Yes, that's probably true. I've just seen it repeated all over Facebook today and was starting to pull my hair out. :D

Honestly this thread is is garbage to say the least. Firstly I'm a teacher so i know the rules of Grammar, Pronunciation, Vocabulary etc..... However this thread is basically saying if you don't type a certain way you are not welcome. To the Mods. take a bloody back seat from your high and mighty stance okay. There are genuine members who don't know grammar the way we do. there are sometimes people who are dyslexic or have had to leave school at early ages and have not learned the language you may think people should know.

I do understand what you're trying to do here and create a better understanding of English and how its really written but I can tell you honestly now that English people don't actually speak English properly at all. If i'm honest in written form yes there is a higher percentage of grammar but in spoken English the accents of English people is terrible. most people don't pronounce H's properly and in fairness you ask any Yorkshire person to say the word three it will be said as free. So when people are a little less accurate with grammar or spelling on here stop trying to be know all's okay. This is one thing of this website that pisses me off big time when the mods try to force people to be articulate in how they type. My attitude to that kind of thing is go find a round room and piss in a corner mate.

I like to keep things civil in the argument side of things Not in the grammar of how its said. To be honest. I'm TEACHER AND i'm DYSLEXIC with E's and I's I always have issues with them and i really take offence when the Mods have a go at people for it. RELAX, guys were not all perfect and come from different backgrounds. some are quick to learn other are not. say it in private message not in a full post. There are no prizes here for language literacy okay. W e are after all a LUFC supporters website not an adult language literacy course.

Sorry guys i truly do understand what you're trying to do. but remember there are members who genuinely don't have the literacy skills of some. step out of your ego's and look at the deeper picture

Yep Corky have a nap as we know you've been on the sauce. Have a read back there were no fingers pointed at forum members here. I know you are defending others, and I respect that, admire it but your a tad jumpy this time. Believe me i know the feeling you will have in the morning, I've have that " oh crap did I write that moment.

No harm done mate :thumbup:
