Well in general people are still currently in the "help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you, help me to help you" phase. To be honest reasonable spelling and grammar is just good manners.

Re: How women dont endear themselves to us men
Spelling isn't the only issue here. If someone re-wrote his posts in perfect English (but still maintained the general point he seems to be advancing) they still wouldn't be very good.

I didn't bother trying to decipher your last few posts. If you care so little about the people who are supposed to read the posts that you think the effort of spelling properly isn't worth it, then I guarantee you, you're not worth the effort it is for me to read them.

Re: How women dont endear themselves to us men
I'm saddened it took you 6 years to get over your decision to the point you felt you could open your heart and let us know of the anguish and turmoil caused by breaking up with a girlfriend when you were 15.
Maybe if you'd stayed with her instead of playing golf, you'd be able to spell.

I think I have shown that your spelling in some circumstances is pretty good. The sentances make sense and are clear to read. However other circumstances you just post crap.
I believe that you are just trolling and so "tynpe liejkke a cnutt". However other circumstances you seem to post fine, I reckong these are points in time where you dont have much time on your hands but want to get your point over, hence why your spelling etc appears to be good.

Just because you spell check it, don't mean you won't have errors. Spell check won't notice if you spell the wrong word correctly, such as I've noticed people will put "I no how to spell." Spell check won't pick up the fact you put 'no' instead of 'know'. It's best to actually learn how to spell and not rely on spell check, for the times when it's not available.

this post isn't so bad.
People can be a little anal over spelling and things on here but that's just because we're used to it.
Don't go into defensive mode just because some people have tried to give some constructive criticism. Pig's idea of copy and pasting into Word is taking things a bit too far (I really couldn't be arsed to do something like that) but just read over your posts before you click the little Post button would be a step in the right direction.
Obviously people think you aren't that bad a poster (even if some are being a bit rude) because if they did they wouldn't bother to try to help you improve.

So I've heard. Load of bollocks though. When I was shit at golf I thought it was the worst thing ever. Then I started getting good at it and gave it up cos I got bored. After all, why ruin a perfectly good walk by interrupting it every so often to hit a golf ball around?

Re: How women dont endear themselves to us men
I've only played golf once when I was 16 or so and I was utterly dire at it.
I ended up hating it after that.
A few of my friends have played it and really enjoy it but whenever they invite me I just make up an excuse.
The memories of trying to hit that sodding thing in the right direction and the right distance. AND with all those ****ing trees and bunkers and water and shit in the way. ****ing golf.
Now look what you've done. You've made me angry

Absolutely. Women like blokes who can commit. It just takes being commited to someone else to show that to them.
I know we are all generalising here; there are always gonna be exceptions to the rule, doesnt mean there arent rules...

Re: How women dont endear themselves to us men
on to the last post ...I have had a Long term relationship with someone before. Lasted for 4 yrs ended 2 yrs ago .. and she cheated on me once and a forgave her for it ... I loved her to bits .... and im loyal to the end ... I still love her now (admittidly as a brother figure), but i always can talk to he and have a luagh with her.
To me love is a fickle thing ... sometimes is work sometimes it doesnt as proven in posts above. With the ex I dumped over the golf .. i did adore her but love her i didnt... I only ever loved two gf's in my 21 yrs of living. but this doesnt mean i havent been 'in love' as well.
Loyallity to me counts for everything, i take a lot of pride and commitment in to relationships .. .Admitidy scared a few off, but many have loved me back
But if someone loved me that much they would understand how much i love golf. I would maybe one day give it up for someone, but only for a shortish duration .. I.e. 3-9 mnths :P
Neway this is prolly one of my few long ledgible threads enjoy

Re: How women dont endear themselves to us men
FYAD is a little different though, same with BYOB. I think SA General Bullshit is moderated on a similar level to GD (GD may even be a bit more lax these days). You get the occasional spastic on there typing stupidly the same as you get on here, it's just amplified a lot more on SA because of the higher user base.

I saw a funny poem about spell checkers missing spelling errors the other day but I don't remember where.
[Edit: Found a similar one by Jerrold H. Zar]
Quote:
I have a spelling checker,
It came with my PC.
It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks aye can knot sea.
Eye ran this poem threw it,
Your sure reel glad two no.
Its vary polished in it's weigh.
My checker tolled me sew.
A checker is a bless sing,
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when eye rime.
Each frays come posed up on my screen
Eye trussed too bee a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.
Bee fore a veiling checker's
Hour spelling mite decline,
And if we're lacks oar have a laps,
We wood bee maid too wine.
Butt now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flare,
Their are know fault's with in my cite,
Of nun eye am a wear.
Now spelling does knot phase me,
It does knot bring a tier.
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped word's fare as hear.
To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should bee proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.
Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays
Such soft wear four pea seas,
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting want too pleas.

I think Pig's point was "there's no rush". Presumably on SA (I'm not a user) you have to be quite quick to "get in there" with the clever remark because of it's high activity. Here, so long as JBG is in the pub (which let's face it, is likely) you've got hours to respond. Hence rushing posts here is less forgivable (or understandable) than on SA.

FYAD is a board to suck up all the stupid from the rest of SA to keep it manageable. It's like criticising a nation for being crazy based upon a trip to one of their asylums.

Re: How women dont endear themselves to us men
Why does everyone who spells like shit always claim dyslexia? I know heroine addicts with the disease that spells better.
All those diagnoses that are general (Dyslexia, ADHD etc) that people get works more as a excuse to be shit then a way for people to improve themselfs. One thing is that you have a harder time spelling, and I wont hate on those errors. Another thing is hiding behind it and not making a effort to get better.
