buzzy: So I point out what some of his faults are and why he may not be able to find a date, and now I'm an ass hole. Great. Isn't that how we learn? Someone points out what we are doing wrong so we can make changes. I played semi-pro American football for many years. Our coach always pointed out where we made mistakes, not always in a nice manner. It made me tough. It also taught me to never accept anything less than my best. When we made the corrections, coach praised us. It not only helped build my SELF-esteem, his lessons of self worth has stayed with me to this day. That is one reason I'm the person I am today. So, if you can't handle a little constructive criticism, then I suggest you crawl back into the shell your comfortable living in. And if you noticed that I have not said anything to our out of US friends about their spelling. I give you guys high marks for getting close to english spelling. I know I couldn't even attempt going on a different language site.
Sir, i get you, perfectly.
About humiliation, quite a few members here, who are particularly sensitive to correction of spelling errors and honest criticism, are the same ones who will pounce on another new/member, when they do their threads in 'slang', or when they ask a genuine question about anal sex. These sensitive posters, will normally let these new people know that they are losers, or morons and should not be looking/posting on this site.
You have done nothing wrong in my books. You helped a man see his errors, some he may not have thought were noticeable, so, you might have helped him. Some people have a problem with spelling and words, which is understandable, but others are just too lazy ( like they probably were in primary school) to write in an organized, orderly fashion. They just don't care, which is perfectly fine with me, though, they shouldn't be surprised i wouldn't want to date them. Simple really. Write something i can't understand, because you chose to, and i'll simply chose not to bother deciphering your posts. This doesn't apply to dyslexic people, but only those who are so lazy, that they don't care. Funny how people want us to accept them as they are, even if they want to eat with their mouths wide open, with their tongues wading and slurping, in circular, visible motions. It's not for me, like i don't expect everyone to like me, or what i do/say.
Humiliation is done in many ways, and that is my point.
Double standards on CS, yes, that's what i see.
