Agree, but am ever so slightly disappointed at the grouping of the 'youngsters' in this way. We all know bonj has an immense capacity for thread spoiling, and generalisations about young people, respect, not forgetting spelling and grammar, are slightly unjust, if coincidentally applicable in this situation.

As soon as i saw Radius' post, i knew straight away the grammer and the spelling would be spot on.




I also knew i wouldnt be able to understand some/all of it. Which is true.:angry::smile:

You just want to shut the youth up

Actually I don't think we do, I don't anyway. What's happened is and it's already been said, that you guys just do the same to every thread recently. Sure threads go off topic but they do in a kind of a random way whereas your banter is getting a bit predictable and at a high volume. 3 pages of twitter as opposed to 10 from you. The forum, any forum, has a flavour and that flavour comes from many sauces sources, so you have to fit in to the flavour of the forum, that's the same anywhere right.

The spelling thing is probably mentioned more because you, the youth of today, are a mirror of today's educational standards, so we exxpect our money to be better spent :smile: Mind you lots of people get picked on over spelling. Mr. Pig got lambasted in his thread yesterday.

And I'll say that I was one of the first person to start picking at Young 'Un and Radius (was it?) when they were talking in 'chat talk'.

Er, no, I don't think so. I have never used chat speak, and never intend to do so.

I dont get the spelling thing. If you can read it, why does it matter?
The forum used to be full of more banter, but its not anymore. Its changed over the time.
Threads are more predictable, thats a fact. Threads that have already been and gone come up again and again. And the outcomes of threads never change.
I think this forum could turn into LFGSS in a few years time.
If your not in with the members and you have a laugh, do abit of winding up, you get moaned at for it.

That's not the forum, that's you having been here a while. That happens on all forums, all.

Although I don't pick on you for that at all. Simply because I slip up as well, though I tend not to be as lazy as much. :smile:

No though on a serious note, I'll try and rein in what i say on threads and not spoil any of them for the other members of CC.
