"Flaming" question
A question for all to ponder?
All too often I make my best attempt to read reviews and comments from others and it just kills me to try to interpret what message the person is attempting to communicate. Would it be considered “flaming” to cut/paste/copy that message, correct it and post it?

Grumpy, if you don't understand something or question something somebody said and don't want to risk a "flame", why not send the individual a PM? Trust me when I say, I use the PM system a 100 times a day..

It's not the fact that I do not understand what the person is trying to say/convey, it's the principle of the "proper" use of the english language.

I understand. In that case just move on and contribute to another post. Basically, pointing out to someone the proper use of the language is only going to eventually cause grief because they are probably not going to like what you have to say. Of couse we can always introduce them to the bull whip...

I have to slap my own face several time a day at the butchering of the English language in most forums. I'm a moderator of the PB2X.com forums. If you want to go into cardiac arrest, go look over there! Don't sweat it, Grumpy. Telling them something will only give them cause to make a self gratifying pilgrimmage to every post you post and type a reply stupid enough to drive you wacky. Not to mention the flaming. As the pater familia always says, "You can't beat sense into everyone!" Too bad.
 Ah, sweet grammar.  Mihi ignosce. Cum homine de cane debeo congredi. "Excuse me. I've got to see a man about a dog."
