If you take a look at Accy's posts, there are no grammatical errors, no spelling errors etc. There are very few posters on CC about which this could be said. In agreeing with
@User14044 I was saying that his online persona is somewhat at odds with these facts.
All this talk of me being articulate,writing in good English etc has made my head swell.
No one's ever commented on my written English on a chat site before,so i'll take the compliments with gratitude!
I've always tried to write in the best possible way i can. I dislike "text speak" and a lack of abbreviations and other such things,so i try my best to write in the Queen's English. I did mention the other week that i was thinking about going to adult classes to improve my written English Me being the lazy one, i didn't bother as i've joined up for classes in the past but when the "homework" is given out i tend to put it to one side then ignore it. I tend to see how other posters write on social chat forums then pick ideas up from there. One thing i do struggle wit i the use of these.
" ". I think i use then unnecessarily and don't use then when i should.I'm not completely dumb as some think i am. I was the sole moderator for a few years on a football forum,till it closed down due to a lack of interest. As for people assuming that if someone is articulate it means they can't be who they say they are,or can't be suffering from depression and anxiety then i disagree totally. Isn't it the more intelligent ones who suffer such things? I'm not saying that i'm intelligent but i am a thinker and a ponderer. I was only saying to my dog 10 minutes ago that he should be grateful that he's just a dog, as nothing is expected of a dog apart from it being loyal and,not peeing in the house. They have nothing to worry about(though i should really be writing They don't have anything to worry about,but then do i put " " in there or not?)
I think that people are surprised that someone who does(did) a manual job can actually write quite well. Maybe i should've gone on to better things in life,but i've always been content with just plodding on. Anyway, like i said last night,the invite still stands for any of you to come here and see that i am the actual person i claim to be.
