Shalom.
I end up distracted by the delivery and the message gets lost in space somewhere. If it seems I'm trying to be mean, the truth is... I'm not. Unlike marilynk, I *do* tend to mentally keep track of who said what and not just *what* was said, and when the personality style of an individual poster can swing from being very 'together' to rather spacey and erratic, I can't help but assume that the spacey and erratic persona was created for entertainment purposes. |
Two points from me. First I envy your ability to keep track of who posts and in what manner. I do remember in general for some of you, but I suspect that my mind works on a more visual level. I feel that I probably need faces to put with the names to help me keep who said what straight. But frankly, I'm not sure that would work either. So I tend to take each post on it's own to some extent.
Second. I'm not talking about anyone in particular with this comment, because the problem seems to afflict more than a few on here, but there "may" be reasons, other than entertainment, for posts being erratic and different sounding. There may be meds involved. There may be other stress factors involved. But to start a to-do over an incorrectly spelled word is petty. We all misspell things at times, including you. And if someone posts in an erratic fashion, then you could ignore them until they post coherently.
