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?
