I did it because I had a hard time reading the post without wincing and I have become sick of seeing such on the forum. Therefore, I posted a correction.

What a moderator did, and has now admitted to, was delete a post that contained no insults and no negative comments purely on the basis of how the other poster could have responed. That's akin to calling a foul on a player because he stood near an opponent and the opposing player could take that the wrong way. That's BS, and that's an offense to free speech.

What should have been done was to leave my post alone and delete any inappropriate response made by the other poster. If the other poster can't handle having his writing mistakes pointed out and corrected on a public forum, then he should either improve his writing skills or stop posting. If he is okay with his current writing ability and can handle it when others do what I did, then there is no problem for the mods to fret over.

From now on I fully expect the mods to delete every post that Chuck, Juulie or anyone else makes that is a spelling or grammar correction. To do otherwise would be to admit that I am being singled out and that what was done was wrong.

You spelled "responded" wrong. I demand that you stop posting or be thrown off this forum.

Do you really think that we're all stoopid enough to swallow this bushwa, Nevada?

Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder could see that you were only posting to yank Rut's chain.

I've had my run-ins with Jeff in the past too. I moved on. I forgot about them. He did too, I think. May I suggest that you do the same?

I now await the deletion of your post.

We used to have worse run-ins than this and I look back on them and laugh. And let us not talk about the old McGriff days.

Peace

My daughter, who has a 3.6 grade average at a her university , just received a very negative rejection letter from the business school(top five in the country) which included three typos. She's not happy with good reason.

On an official's forum, you can't expect the Queen's English on every post.

That said, I just had a dust up with BlindZebra which I'm going to apologize for in a PM.
