A Reminder – PLEASE READ

I’m becoming concerned about the increasing number of postings that seem to ignore the basic rules of grammar, spelling and punctuation. I know that some of the regular posters out there share this concern.

The Code of Conduct says: “10) Please post in comprehensible English, commonly used abbreviations are acceptable however refrain from using ‘mobile’ text as not everyone understands it.”

Here are three simple steps that will help everyone to avoid breaking rule 10:

  • Sentences will begin with a capital letter and will have a full stop at the end.
  • Postings will not be made in all upper-case characters.
  • Postings will not contain “Txt-speak”( “gr8”, “m8”, etc).

From this point onwards, any and all postings that the Moderators consider to break rule 10 may be edited or deleted without further warning.

If you see a posting that you think breaks rule 10, then send a PM to the person who made the posting or to a Moderator.

Do NOT criticise or mock the posting (or the person who made the posting) in the open forum.

Thanks

GA
