How to write

[Danolo]

I've seen so many postings here that are almost impossible to read, so I thought I'd share some basic writing tips.

Make short sentences. Don't write long, run-on sentences, stop for breath, stick in a comma at a suitable spot, and end a thought with a period.

If you put in a period, hit the space bar, and start the next sentence with a capital letter.

Make short paragraphs. No more than three sentences in a paragraph.

Use the spell check where available.

I value the reviews I read here very much, but when they are sometimes so hard to read its very frustrating.

I apologize in advance if this posting offends anyone.

Obvious reason. For many people English is not the first language. Some have come here when they were past school age. They may try their best but it is not always simple to master the peculiarities of the English grammar, or any other language for that matter. Put yourself in their shoes and show a little tolerance.

BTW how many languages to you speak?

Who gives a fuk as long as we be talkin pussy and ass and tits and blow jobs and hand jobs and cum in mouth and eatin crotch and stuff like that, huh?

Maybe Danolo can sit in that corner over there and grade all the posts and then tell me about it when hell freezes over.

Valid point ... but unfortunately I've worked with Canadian born, university grads, who don't always know the difference, and are sometimes worse than the immigrants. It seems literacy is becoming extinct.

It's a sad fact that students aren't interested in education including the English language, I know understand what the generation gap is.

If grammar is the worst thing you have to cry about ; then I do feel sorry for you .
The odd thing is ; I could read what gentle Ben wrote ; without have a knot in my knickers about the spelling.
It would be nice if all people were perfect spellers and used proper grammar like you;?? But we do not live in a perfect world.

hey, if feeling sorry for me is all you have to feel sorry about, then I feel even more sorry for you ... btw, who said I claimed to be perfect?

I have come across exactly the same situation many times, from people at high level position in the company, people with degrees, some of them English born trying to impress with their accented English. They could speak well, but who could not spell correctly.

rayden and raydeon are two different people. What's your point?
