    <div>I don't know of a reg on these boards who consistently has horrible grammar.  Mistakes here and there are one thing, but when posts have no punctuation and run on sentences, yeah it's annoying.  You want us to take the time to read your post, and give you advice, you could at least take the time to write like an adult.  And I mean the general 'you," not you in particular.  </div><div>
    </div><div>And really, calling someone a stupid bitch, and using the term as a description of how it could have been worse are completely different.  </div>

    Technically, I've been a member a lot longer than a lot of people, but I just don't bother commenting on everything. :)

    To OP, I wouldn't even worry about taking anything up with the person who left that comment. I get where you're coming from, and I'm sure that a lot of the other members do too. Leave it to the board mod to take care of something if it really gets bent out of shape, but otherwise, don't stress about it. :)

    I confess that I teased Lynda today for typing booby instead of bobby.

    Yes, sarcasm abounds sometimes, but most people will find that they get good answers to their questions.  It's not like we're all sitting around, ready to pounce on "newbs" whenever they misspell a word or use too many ellipses.

    Y'all! Some perspective, please!  A girl simply asked if/how to recognize the loss of someone really close to her. And in the subject line of her post she chose "???" as opposed to "?"

    This really has nothing to do with people who abuse run-on sentences, use blocks and blocks of text, use text speak, etc. 

     Calling the poster out on that was just petty.  I could understand it if her post was "Who should be my goldfish attendant??????" but it was an honest and kind post about a recent loss.  Everyone can show some restraint in that case...right?

    Uh, yeah, just leave it to the mods. And while you're at it, how about not making assertions about us favoring regs? Because I go out of my way to be fair to everyone, and will handle a reg if necessary. I've done it to Snippy, I've done it to Tide, and to others. I'm offended by your statement, to be honest.

    <div>I really don't know what you want.  She's not going to get banned over it, and not everyone is going to agree with you.  Personally, yes multiple punctuation marks annoy me.  And some people get so annoyed by bad grammar that it doesn't even matter what the post is about.  </div><div>
    </div><div>Also, there's a very good chance Snippy didn't even read the whole thread, and just commented on the multiple question marks.  </div>

    [QUOTE]Okay. Seriously. Yes, the OP used excessive question marks. Slightly annoying. But No big deal . Snippy was a little rude/uncalled for, but it was not that offensive. No big deal . I think this is extremely petty on both ends and is being blown way out of proportion.

    I wasn't meaning you in particular, but just in general. I'm also the one who told OP to leave it to the mods and if things get out of hand to report it and they will take care of it. I don't see how anything I said offended you, but I'm sorry if it did.

    I don't want anything. And, goodness no, Snippy shouldn't be banned.  But people acting as if the OP in this situation was simply being ignorant with her grammar and typing is ridiculous.  Three question marks does not a sentence fragment make.
