Woah that wasn't clear enough

Post by Clokey »

Everytime someone with a bit of poor spelling or whatever posts a thread, the get ripped into something fierce. Jokes or whatever, they're having their topics spammed up with off topic responses then are they not?

I don't know, just something I noticed.

I think the problem is that sometimes people actually can't understand what the topics are about, hence the off-topic posts.

Criticising other's spelling is becoming far too prevalent on this board.

Fair enough when people deliberately use shorthand or "SMS" speak, when they can, in fact spell but to criticise those who cannot is against the spirit of Nick's.

I know of a kid who cannot post on here because he has learning difficulties and is not good at spelling - he would be crucified.

Please people, if you cannot understand a post, don't respond - leave it to others who can.

Steve, and Julee, I agree 100%. I just offered a reason for the off-topic posts.
