Adrian@TORQEN Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) I have an excuse, English is not my main language, came over when I was 21 already but it just hurts my eyes and FEELINGS, too when I see people in here posting in a poorly written English. Who wants to volunteer for some weekly English grammar lessons? Any English teachers around here? Some examples I've seen today: KylerR did the same mistake, but changed it later Here is another example: I hope I haven't offended anyone in here, far from me any thought like that!

Ebized Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 If we started issuing warning points for bad grammar/spelling that would be the end of the forum in less than than a week. But more seriously, it is sometimes impossible to work out just what in being said in posts and it seems that is either restrictions (genuine or otherwise) by using mobile phones or draft posts are not checked, or even scanned, before posting. With the latter, so often that leads to misunderstandings and tensions rising that sadly leads to threads being locked. 1 Quote
