Exclamation

What is wrong with peoples' spelling these days? Everybody says they want to be a pilot, but they can't even spell simple words. I know its typing and it doesn't really matter and I'm sorry if I offended anyone, but show some intelligence and spell well (not good)(LOL)!

You could also go on about using abbriviations like LOL. I think ppl (did you catch it) are getting lazy.

Puncuation is what really gets to me. when people write like this and they dont use periods and they dont have sentences and they do little symbols like this (: . Don't people understand that posts are much harder to follow and understand if they dont flow well?

I agree, proper punctuation, grammer, and captolization always help. When people get things like that wrong it bugs me, but when I corect them, especially when they're tryin to talk, they get pissed.

Lets annoy harrier and make this thread about commercial aviation before he gets the chance to bump it into Open Board. So have you guys noticed weird spelling in airline names, or spelling errors in safety manuals?????

Cool

This really shouldn't be in the forum. I'm not authorized to move anything from here, however. harrier, would you mind?

happy?

I was waiting for authorization since this was the first time i have to do something big! anyway....somehow, i don't think punctuation and grammer really matters on these forums, just as long as people understand what one is trying to write
