I know some people care about this more than others and I am often guilty of poor grammar and disastrous punctuation at times (I do like to use the odd ".....")
Anyway, maybe we can assist each other or merely spill our pet hates regarding poor use of the English language on the forum.
Keep it friendly.
The two things I hate most and will not even respond to anymore are:
TXT SPK - is it really that difficult to write full words? If you cannot be bothered typing the full word why do you expect anyone will be bothered typing a response!
Bought/Brought: I was thinking of making a thread just with these two words and making it a sticky. Bought is to buy something. Brought is to bring something. If you are posting a for sale thread for example and say "I just brought this from a guy last week" that is wrong. You bought it from a guy last week!
As Mark often comments on spelling I am sure there will be at least one other contributor to this thread .... but I wonder if there are any more members out there who would like to share their pet spelling/grammatical mistakes?
