I'm semi-new to LBT but not new to forums in general.

What is really irritating is trying to read through one long run-on sentence, poor capitalization, poor spelling, and no paragraphs! :thumbs_up:

The no paragraphs are the worst as they are difficult to read.

We have spell check, use it for goodness sake.

Punctuation is good.

I've come across quite a few posts that are long with poor spelling, punctuation and no paragraphs. They've been very hard to read. I hope I'm not alone in my thinking here. I'd just like to know when a thought ends and another one begins!

Thank you for letting me rant, I'm done now.

I hope I'm not alone in my thinking here.

Seeing as how we have something like 30 posts on this same topic here, I'm guessing you aren't.

We do have members who aren't native English speakers, some who don't know any different, and a few who do it on purpose. All types. The beauty is - I can only respond to posts that make sense to me, eh? :thumbs_up:

My apologies! I had not seen those.

Sorry. I'm from the south. I'll try to turn the southern-to-English translator back on.

Amen! The punctuation is the worst. I just can't read when it's all strung together. I just skip over those and move on.

I can handle misspelled words and such but when someone uses NO punctuation and the sentences keeping going it drives me NUTS!

haha! Me too. I always say when I mess up "oh, me Louiserana Edukation is showin" You know.

I do hate things written in all caps. I don't mind bad spelling etc. but all caps annoys me, but I usually just don't read them. It hurts my eyes.

I Have A Hard Time With Sentences Like This.

Gloucester- we probably have people reading that saying to themselves, "What's wrong with that?" lol

I love it when this topic comes up again. People want to say something, but they don't realize that the majority of people will just skip over their post because it's too hard to read.

i really have no idea what you guys are talking about i havent seen anything weird looking on these boards here for like ever some say that they cant read some peeples postings but i can read them just fine I See No Problems With Anything what are you seeing cause if you are seeing something im not seeing it

you mean like that?

I am more annoyed by the all caps or all first letter upper case. Really boggles my brain, I keep thinking it's suppose to be a new sentence.

You are LOOSING your minds.

Agree. My other pet peeve is people who can't actually ever end a sentence . . . because it is easier to just type dots . . . and then more dots . . . because the mind wanders and never finishes any single thought . . . I'm going to get all old on everyone and ask, don't they teach anybody the use of a single . anymore?

YOU ALL ARE TO TO FUNNI..........AND I DUE AGRE..........

Nancee:rolleyes:
