    Spelling in SFA forum

    the inherent problem with a forum such as this is the amount of young people participating in discussions.
    this, in itself would not be such a problem if it was not for their apparent lack of any english skills whatsoever.
    i see 10 line posts with no punctuation, many spelling mistakes, and overall bad grammar. Not only does this lead to confusion as to what your post is actually meant to mean, it also stops people from taking you seriously.
    If you really want to participate "intelligently" in discussion, spend 1 minute at the end of writing your post to copy/paste it into word(or if you have firefox like me, get the spell check plugin) and just fix some of the more obvious grammar and spelling mistakes.
    its getting to the stage where i have started refusing to answer a question because the question is so badly worded, and words so badly spelt, that it is a chore to read.

    please, take a little more pride in your arguments.

    I agree, it's annoying, but not something you can make into a rule.
