If i was the sensitive type then right now i'd be thinking 'Uh oh, James and other members get really annoyed at people putting comma's in the wrong place' as other members have been using the mad emotion too. Now, after typing 'comma's', i looked and realised i have a comma after the a and i don't know if it should be there or not. If it shouldn't then i've 'really annoyed' some members as well as the Admin on the site. Now, as i'm not the sensitive type; i really couldn't care less because i'm not going to get my mum upstairs and ask each time if i am putting a comma in the wrong place, am i? Whearas, the 'sensitive type' people will and it will really put people off posting.

I may get mixed up with my there, they're and their's and put comma's in the wrong place but i don't use text speech and i use full stops, capital laters and my posts are readable.

Right, everybody knows that a full stop should be used yeah? But i've never been taught in school that you could replace '', '' emotions etc with full stops which is what James, jem_stone and Lauren has done. Now, not using full stops or getting mixed up with comma's and the word 'there'. What's more of an issue? I know that's really petty but people are pointing out faults that annoy them which other people don't know any different but insist on replacing full stops with emotions.

Plus, i can understand how text speech annoys people but how on earth does a comma or a word spelt wrong really annoy people? Surely there are more important things both on and off the forum which are more important?

Anyway, there/their you go, my mouthful.
