Omgoodness. Lets play nice. But I think for once this wasn't directed right at me. :lolsign: Its a bloody miracle. ;)
(removes foot from butt)
I think one other issue is that some people can't recognize teasing when they see it. I had one individual pm me asking whether I was alright & did I need help fending off a certain "mean" poster who was teasing me in a thread, not realizing that I said far worse to that poster in the Games Room.
I find it helps if I find I'm reacting to something to go away for a bit & re-read it later, since I might be taking things the wrong way as a result of something else going on in my life. I also ask someone else to read it, in case I'm misunderstanding something.
Well said.
And I'm still trying to find those pics! lol
I'm guessing its directed at the Kathy Ireland pic?
I guess I'd find out who the prudes are in my neighbour. If I looked like that I'd suntan in the front yard wearing less than she is!
Instead I stay behind the pool fence....:sad:
This has been brought up before but, can we remove or decrease the sent reps comments in the control panel? We are now seeing more of the sent than we are of the received, that doesn't make sense.
I want to personally snd you a huge thank-you! for all you do! It's an awesome site and any minor problems are far out-weighed by the quality and benefits! Kudos to you!
One thing I have wondered though, is why some of the store links don't work? Is it just me?
I like this site. Some problems that I have are that we should be able to delete our own posts if they are expired or reposts and someone makes mention of it.
Also would be nice if we could *ding* someone to get their attention in case they are new to the site and don't realize they have a PM or you want to get their attention ASAP.
There are days when I sincerely wish that the spell check tool was automatically run before a post was allowed to be made....and that the super-blatant stuff got corrected.
Of course, I am also known as "the SPG" (Spelling and Grammar Gestapo) at work.
Also, I have never been able to embrace the "it's all small stuff" mantra (really??!? LOL)...I try to remind myself that there are much, MUCH worse things in life than misspelled words....today, I am doing that but it is not helping my aggravation level much.
:rant:
It's my fault!!! I try my best but often fail. I can't spell and never could!!:bawling:
Don't the browsers automatically underline misspelled words and show corrections like MS Word? Mine does.
Spelling doesn't bother me much, as long as I can make sense out of it, Its okay :)
kind of funny but I won't be here if I did not like how this forum works ;). I think it is great!
Not to mention that many people having learning disabilities (including me!!) and spelling is a HUGE struggle! And then there are the people who's first language isn't english.
Assuming that spelling mistakes is laziness is just plain wrong.
