Good evening.

I meant "to" as in that instance it was "refered to"

Interesting thread though.

I think you are coming down WAY TO HARD on him.
"If you ARE in the middle of trying to fix it, why are you posting about it? If you don't know what you're doing, you shouldn't be trying to fix it before posting here!"
What are you trying to say? I am CONFUSED it sounds like double talk??
"using full words instead of abrev. everything, gtting rid of vwls, using num83rs to r3plac3 l3773rs, and even occasionally going out of their way to senselessly make words more dIFfICulT To ReAd.
I think you look at things to deep?""using full words instead of abrev. everything, gtting rid of vwls," I know what you are trying to say, BUT what the HE** is a vwls and gtting???? "make words more dIFfICulT To ReAd."
That I can I can ReAd.

You aren't funny deltree. Let me just start with that.

The problem here is that people are lazy. No one likes to speak properly anymore, so why should they bother to write properly. If I have to strain to understand someone's post I'm usually not inclined to help, provided it's even something I can make out.

But I digress. Sure, it's your prerrogative to write like a buffoon, but it's also my prerrogative to call you on it. I like to abbreviate with the best of them. For example, I often use acronyms like "LOL" or "LMAO". I don't, however, make a habit of abusing the English language.

Ah this isn't helping my headache.

Dashwood95,
1. "The problem here is that people are lazy."
2."Sure, it's your prerrogative to write like a buffoon."
People are going to think then say just about what they want,but I think if I or anyone else starts putting the BAD MOUTH on anyone; that is going a bit over the top.
There are all kinds of people that come to this forum, if it's not a puter problem and we are down here in the Open Discussion forum people are just about going to say WHAT EVER. There is no harm done,and please don't get upset over people;for you may hear any thing down here:some SAD some FUNNY. PLEASE DON'T GET HEADACHES.
THANK YOU! YOUR FRIEND DELTREE
