BaltACD I don't want to take the effort to read gobledeegook from someone that won't take the time, and curtesey to convey their thoughts in the generally acceptable form. Doing so says that they themselves have no respect for whatever ideas they are trying to convey. Posting in a crap format you are telling your audience - this crap isn't worth reading.
Oddly enough, his post today was in a readable format with generally accepted grammar and syntax.
My personal opinion is that people who write illegibly, especially if they actually are capable of standard written English, are saying they have no respect for readers.

In MP's defense (we had a similar discussion off-line) part of the problem has been trying to post on a phone, where most methods of proper formatting, etc, seem to be an exercise in futility...

Tree, thanks.
But darn it, you have the facts wrong. I do not do email on a cell phone. I even hate to text on the cell. I do laptop PC and email. No Facebook. Just old fashion email. Just moments ago I typed a 12 paragraph PM to a poster.
Why so many paragraphs? Since I have nothing important to say, the length of the message was to test the idea of paragraphs being retained when the "REPLY" was activated.
Yes, it came out as one long long long paragraph. With that said and proven, it seems to be the only way to seperate the text for intelligent reading is to have .............seperations.......................
But then I digress, it needs be something of import before being posted. That pretty much leaves me out. Just kidding on the pitty party last sentence. mike endmrw0627181615 ..............for the record this was to be 5 paragraphs............lets see what happens
As to sending Private Messages, I have no trouble in making paragraphs, simply by using the enter key--and other people who send such to me are also able to separate their mesages into paragraphs.

Why revert to the nearly illegible format?
