Default My rant

I been noticing on several forums. The use of I assume texting shorthand. i u r etc and no periods, commas etc. I have tried on several times try to read it. I can read after several times at trying. Well I have decided I have better things to do. So if want my advice or ideas etc. Go back to English. Spelling is no big deal mine is not so good either so is my grammer. This is no offense to nobody. But I assume if you are asking a question, advice or showing your ideas. I assume you want a response. The longer it takes to read and understand the long it takes.
On a minor item. When asking a question or wanting help. All of us need year and type of Ford. There is a few Rangers and t-birds in with us. Wiring, engine specs etc changes with this info. This will help get things going quicker and let us all learn from each other. Thanks for listening to my ranting Thanks Maurice

Does anybody find the original post to be a little ironic? Personally I found that your post itself was a little difficult to understand in some areas. Actually, I'm being a dick right now, sorry. Just forget that you read any of this and continue on.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WRITE IN FULL SENTENCES.

There is also a spell check on the forums (if you have firefox or IE) so PLEASE use it...

It becomes a pain in the butt to read a post 3-5 times just to get all the information needed to help. I mostly skim now because it's just to much work and my answers are short until proper grammar (or close) is used.

Hi,

I support the original poster too! +1

I usually skip replying to the posts that someone cant be bothered to use grammar of some sort. Its really frustrating for me to read paragraphs with no punctuation at all.

I agree Maurice. Sentences and proper spelling is a must. I am not too wonderful at be grammatically correct, but I do try. If you don't know how to spell a word use google or spell check.

Spelling and grammer no big deal to me. Like I originally said I am not too good at it either. But if you got to read it several times then it needs work. Ps don't forget the second section. Year and vehicle. It agravates me when trying to answer a question. When there could be several answers depending on year and what vehicle it is.
