AndrewOW Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Smileys are second nature, but the elusive return key, and some punctuation marks have remained elusive until now? Blimey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAT Inter Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 My spelling and grammar can be crap due to my keyboard throwing wobblies and missing key strokes every now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suprattgaz Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I like reading this post - you can see people trying desperatley to use the BIGGEST and most pronounced and unused words in the english dictionary. Oh and I agree with the guys saying who cares too much about the spelling; text speak I don't like, but hitting the wrong button every now and again and then going back through to check it I have enough of at work. I am at home, talking about my car and hobby, so what if I hit a wrong button or forget to hit enter when i press "I" (as i just did!!! ) EDIT: Oh looking at it it I did it again :innocent: Who cares - are we judging on this site?

Thanks den1 I honestly don't (or don,t) know whether to laugh or cry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Spelling and grammar mistakes are fine; it's when people post a retarded jumble of made up words that it gets hard work. That, and not spacing out paragraphs (not you den1, your special ). I wery rarely have my browser open full screen and if I see a huge block of words, I find it stupidly hard to read and usually ignore it. Annoying if it's part of a thread I'm interested in.

Animal Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Animal.... Your or you're? cock [edit] I blame this laptop keyboard. All the keys are flat and very close together, makes it hard work to type fast. I need to re-calibrate my fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
