I´m really fed up of people moaning about the "grammar police" and I don´t think Claudya necessarily had that in mind when she posted her thread.

I admit to being frustrated at times about the grammar used here, and I´ve learned to accept it without too much fuss! but for goodness sake I teach English so why wouldn´t I be frustrated? It makes me feel sad quite frankly. I´ve also said on countless, nay, too many, occasions that I never get annoyed with non-native speaker errors and I don´t try to correct them and that I´m so happy to see how some of our non-native speakers here have improved immensely. In addition, I know that we all type quickly and typos are very easy to make, I make them too.

The worst thing here is the occasional gross crudity, bad language,(it has its place at times, but not on a public forum imo) the rudeness, and inability to listen to other points of view, and sometimes, just sometimes, being unable or unwilling to admit that one is wrong.

I´m sorry you´ve been made to feel the way you obviously do Claudya, but nobody here is perfect and I remember you upsetting a few people in the past, as I have too apparently so I´m not picking on you. wave

All we do mistakes Jan ,I just wanted to point here in my thread one thing,when someone new comes here to post first time must be welcomed not bullied.If u refer that I upset people in the past I made it to defend myself because I am sure u remeber when I posted first time in CS I forgot to make first time an introducing thread,in fact I didn't know this and I remeber how attacked me some old forumists,but I was not scared by anyone and I defended myself .I respected all the time the opinions of others without be rude .wave

Veritaas: Well perhaps some people do not understand the English humour here at times. This place is a learning curve for many. Use it to your advantage.

Sometimes the mistakes people make here can be very humorous. I do not think there is any malice meant. If there is, then who ever is the deliverer of the ill intent has the problem, not the other.

There is such a variety here, though sometimes I think there is a lack of it.
thumbs up

Well, yes I do agree with you there thumbs up

Reason being if they're on here 24/7 concentrating on winning popularity contests then it will leave them very little time in the real world to practise being popular rolling on the floor laughing

In fact, it'll leave them no time at all laugh laugh

claudya: So finally who are the most popular people in forums ?Those who reach to put down with their sarcastic replics or rude ones?And they do this just because they are selfish and don't let opportunity the new ones to come in the threads?Or because they think are famous here if they do this?And I observed another thing in forums which I didn't like, some of the native English people laugh by those who make sometimes mistakes in fact are sarcastic but how many from the native speakers can write at least few sentences in the languages of those who make mistakes?
So my opinon is to give a chance of those who post first time here to improve the forums and not put them down from the first time .

PS;Smile and be good and life will be good for u!

I find that those who have something to offer, in kindness will always get my vote!
peace
