Good story?  Interesting?  I couldn't get past the first couple of sentences.  The lack of paragraphs turned me off quickly.  I can't bring myself to stare at a large wall of text like that and try to read it...

Then why bother posting a reply except to show your intolerence & lack of acceptance that not all are perfect in this world?

very interresting story, that guy just knowing he was going to kill 5 spits is pretty sweet sounds like he knew his stuff.  I once dispatched 4 zekes with a brewster but I definently at the beginning didn't say I had those guys (same situation I was beneath them).  Thanks for sharing the story

intolerance? I think dots just making the point that if someone spends the time to write a post, there more chance of people reading it if they hit the return key every couple of sentences. paragraphs are your friend.

Nice post Gaboon. Those were good times at the dawn of internet gaming.

Maybe your friend the paragraph could introduce you to his buddy the apostrophe.   

ImADot I feel your pain. Thanks for sharing.

don't think anyone is majoring in English in this forum.  If you can understand what there trying to say that's all that matters.

Gaboon was just harkening back to the earlier days of writing.  At least he was using spaces between words and some punctuation.  Earlier writing with the Latin alphabet didn't even have that.

Heh!  That's awesome!  Really, I could indeed read it without much trouble at all.  Language has some pretty good error correction built into it, eh?

no problems here TN however when someone repeatedly spells simple words wrong I tend to categorize them as much much younger people.  Not that I discount them completely unless they prove themselves to be tards.  Thank goodness for spell check in firefox.

Amen.....

I do know what you mean, but when one person comments on someone's spelling I just look at it as being trivial.  It actually makes the person making the comment look immature in my book especially if you can actually read the context.  I'm all for bringing up intelligant young folks, that's how we move along as a species and improve our technology.  Lets face it our earth and milky way galaxy is 1.5 billion years old with the earth cooling and the demise or immanent future of our planet is one like Mars, each generation of our species must remain on a steady climb to supreme knowledge and in doing so will ensure our survival as a race - something as simple as spelling could be leading us in the wrong direction.

Quality communication requires effort. If people don't want to communicate effectively then I'm not that keen about making a reciprocal effort.
