Well, judging from your post, it`s obvious that you at least make an effort (proof read your posts), and that`s all I`m suggesting. Others, unwilling to at least TRY and suggesting ``it doesn`t matter``, undercut themselves and expose their lack of ability for all to see. And I`m not talking about the ``there/they`re/their`` and ``to/too`` things (though they are what are known as ``distractors``), but typing things that make no sense due to poor grammar or choice of words. At least we can read through the little stuff and make sense of it.
Keep in mind that I`m a former manager of Contracts Compliance. The words are important in that world. I also have degrees in Math and Accounting. If the numbers are wrong, does it matter?! LOL
As for grammer signifying credibility and integrity; who is probably the most respected poster on this board - respected for his credibility, integrity and wisdom? I`d suggest it`s Ronran. Have you EVER seen a typo in one of his posts? If his posts were riddled with typos and nonsensical statements that could be easily misinterpreted, would he have the same standing? I doubt it.
And then we have Ease and EDIGOKIE, posting ``under the influence`` on occasion. Well, I find humor in that, and those posts are never intended to be serious. If they were, we`d have a problem! LOL Some things just should not be done while hammered. It`s like drunk drivers - most just don`t have enough experience! LOL (only a joke - don`t get MADD!).
Bottom line is that if you don`t care enough to least give it your best shot, simply don`t care at all, are not capable and/or are extremely lazy, don`t expect to garner much respect here or anywhere else.
