Has the forum got any advice on Grammar, Spellings Or Syntax. I've read Many post which have spelling mistakes etc. But have never corrected anyone ( like here starting a sentence with but )as sometimes when writing my fingers seem to have a mind of their own and letters are added or ommitted.
I enjoy reading the post from all fans and feel it's a bit petty of some people to snap at others spelling etc after all its the views of the author that are important no how it is said.
I'm only pointing this out and would like some advice on the subject as i'd hate to have to have a dictionary at hand for all future posts.
I've delebritly mis spelt this, and used " to" & "too" inaproptaley and think that most people can read and understant it. Not everyone on this site has( or should that be have ) had the benifits of a decent school or 3rd level education. so please don't be so picky

I guess I always do that, as I want to be taken seriously and if I'm making a particular point, then I take the trouble to make sure that my spelling is somewhat accurate, (always my weak point) but that's probably my A Level tutor getting the better of me
Each to their own. However having said that, there are a lot of foreign poster's on here, so the fact that they are posting in a second language, (Bondtoys in particular) I am always rather humbled, as I can't speak another language, let alone join a debate in it.
I used Google Chrome.
We also encourage the proper use of grammar, we do however appreciate that not everyone cares quite as much as others!
I think most members will agree that everyone makes mistakes, part of being human, being in a rush etc. However what most people really get annoyed with is the miss spelling of Bond related people, places, films etc. After all this is a Bond forum!
The only other bits of advice, and this is primarily from me, I do like to use and see proper capitalisation. I feel it looks better (regardless of whether it's actually spelt right!). Start a sentence with a capital, start topic titles with a capital and whatever happens DON'T USE ALL CAPS!
We aren't going to kick someone off for poor spelling and grammar! Maybe...
SiCo is a silly sausage
Personally I reckon we should flag up it's = it is while its owns something. Love the Aston Martin, but its ejector seat didn't work.

As long as you spell color with a u I don't mind where you're from
Seriously though as I said above there aren't strict rules just try and keep it neat, inoffensive and as near to structured language as possible.
As long as people try you can't ask for any more than that. Most of all have fun and keep it on topic!
And spell Gray with an e instead of an a, right?
Hey Lexi, you are the only one here who does not judge my english to be crap or wookie .
Anyhow, whenever you need a lesson in German, just let me know.
