The reason I am no longer posting

Bob I · #1 04-08-2006, 12:34 AM

After a number of years I have decided to no longer take an active role on this board. This is mainly due to a number of recent joinees who refuse (or don't know) to use the language of the country, which is English in their posts. I am tired of unintelligible gobble d gook in posts. The continued misspelling of common words is also a problem. I will be available by PM, but will no longer monitor this board.

I'm lost here. "joinees" and " gobble d gook" are not words in the English language.

ps.

Just playing with you Bob.

I'm also lost here. Are there posts in a foreign language that I have been missing, or did you mean "who refuse (or don't know how) to use the language of the country....."?

There is also the fact that English is not the language of the country.....it is one of the two official languages of Canada.

Pour que signifie si je poste en français, cela a tort aussi ? ou vous êtes juste à ingronat pour comprendre que quelques gens ont le problème avec l'orthographe ou grammer correct ?

You know, the top five urban dictionary definitions for "grammar" back up Bob's point.

Ironic? Discuss.

This is not a reason to not post, but rather a reason to ignore users that you can't understand.

Well i have agree, that the spelling and grammer have gone downhill, but you know what?

Suck it up Princess

I don't see how refusing to post is going to improve grammar. Now, if we had a problem with Bob's grammar.....
