Please note that the forum guidelines have been updated to include the following:
We understand that some people struggle with the English language for legitimate reasons. In some cases an individual is learning English as a second or third language, or perhaps has a condition such as dyslexia. With this in mind, we are not requiring perfection, but only a sincere effort.
We all make typos or forget obscure grammatical rules. That's OK. Even some slang is perfectly fine, provided that it's used when appropriate. What we are asking is that you make a minimal effort to proofread your posts, and check that the spelling, grammar and punctuation are correct. Please avoid excessive use of abbreviations, and always finish your sentences with a period.
By taking these steps you will ensure that your posts are clear and easy to read. This will in turn facilitate better discussions, and will help to maintain the high quality of our writing community.
Thank you.
