I hate it when people see me at the supermarket and they are like:

ARGH, I just want to scream at him sometimes! That sentence makes absolutely no sense in English whatsoever!!!! Yes! It actually hinders my reading ability! I slip up once and a while if I'm paying attention to something else, but I try to think I'm usually grammatically correct. |

English is one of the most fucking easy languages to learn(this is my opinion considering I've been taking multiple language courses over the past few years).

He's not talking about typing another language, he is talking about typing English grammar incorrectly which is a common thing for a person who's English is not their fist language. Its a mistake bilingual people make all the time and I feel that as long as your understanding what I'm saying it shouldn't be a big deal like your putting it. Even people whose English is their first language make that mistake. If you want to see perfectly good written English on this forum than this forum is not for you.

Hey, old gregg started it,the fact remains that most of the time almost none of you proofread. Here I thought you were educated enough to learn about that basic principle in language.

This a The Rockstar Game forum not The Spelling Bee Game Forum, if people proof read thats good, but not all do either because they don't want to or because they forget to sometimes but anyway this goes back to my point as long as you can understand what I'm saying that's all that matters.

I agree in the roleplay section you should proof read something and make it look nice, thats a firm belief of mine. But proofreading every single post you do on this forum, is hard work and people just can't be assed. Sharinganerror your not on here a lot so you dont post much so you wont notice it as much, but Steph's post counts insanely high, is she supposed to proofread EVERYTHING? |
