A necessary point well made
[QUOTE=DSubmariner;4314060]Am I the only one mentally exhausted from having to decipher half these f**king posts? Write your shyte in Word, do a spell check and paste, if need be. Damn![/QUOTE]But you shan't be a snub, either, old boy. By showing the uninitiated some tolerance may just afford them a degreed of incentive of wanting to stride towards a higher stander. But, then again - -.
In any case, I would strongly suggest, however, to all the aforementioned, avoid as much as possible on the usage of metaphors and especially all those random abbreviations. A common mistake too often practiced by overzealous Mongers in their futile attempt to be stylish. And in the end, instead of adding anything of value, all their gratuitous efforts and all their posturing will only served to mislead and to confound the narrative itself.

Basic interpersonal communicative skills.
I don't reckon anyone here is naive enough to think this forum is a gathering of great literary minds, but c'Mon, man! Much of the writings here exhibited thus far are absolutely atrocious, and a total embarrassment. It falls far short of any minimal stander necessary to convey even the most basic of concepts and ideas. Heck, even a street corner gathering of thugs, and thugs want to be's can probably flex greater communicative muscles than many here whom I'd assume has a meaningful job to pay to fornicate on top of paying their bills.
One day perhaps, someone ought to take a survey of what some of the member's here does for a living. Boy, wouldn't that be interesting?
Like it or not, we are living in an English centric country, and a minimal stander of writing skill must be adhered to in order for meaningful communication with one another.
That being said, I've met foreign nationals with less than 6 month of English class under their belt who can prose to a higher stander than many here.
C'Mon., man!
Aiight, Dog, out.
Grammatical perfection was never a mandate on this forum
[QUOTE=Dff4580;4318532]I'm an educated professional that writes and edits for a living and I could frankly have a field day with your writing too. (You don't need a comma before "and," for example.).
People in glass houses and such.[/QUOTE]Nor was I at any point advocating literary snobbery. A simple conveyance of its intended subject matter through a written prose would suffice.
That said, if you must chime in, please go back and reread all the preceding posts leading up to this before arbitrarily contradict the veracity of a given subject matter. Only a lazy ignoramus would be presumptuous enough to cry foul from within " a glass house".
That said, I've sampled some of your pervious posts, and it certainly fall short of anything note worthy, stylistically and thematically.
Please feel free to indulge us with a real sample of your writing, so we may be enlightened by the inner workings of a real literary mind.

Tell us how you really feel. LOL
