FabSwingers.com forum: Poor grammar

Now, is it just me or does anyone else get very frustrated when they read a profile or receive a message that is littered with grammatical errors? To me it just smacks of low educational standards (do I sound like a snob saying that?)

Text speak too...sorry but that is ridiculous. I've received messages that even a WW2 Enigma machine would have failed to crack!

I know. We live in a fast moving society nowadays but surely we should try and keep some standards?

I tend to give some ground at first.

I'll raise my had and say my grammar is not the best when I'm on here on my phone, but I try to make it the best possible if im on my laptop.

So I try to remember that.

That said text speak is an instant turn off. A girl would have to be special for me to still fancy her after seeing that.

Yes! It really irks me as well. One or two errors in a message i can forgive but your/you're type confusions and the like make me wince and put me off. I know I'm not bere for 3000 word essays on British politics but I do need to be on the same wavelength as someone and if I'm cringing with every message it doesn't feel worth it.

No. I don’t get frustrated. It has no impact on my day whatsoever. Unless it’s an apostrophe before every fucking S...... then I develop a twitch.

There are many instances of poor English but one must wonder where the problem is. The education system must take a good bit of the blame. However, some usage totally baffles me, why is 'like' used in so many wierd and inappropriate places?

To be fair I agree with much of your sentiment in relation to using the phone. I often struggle to ensure all is correct but I do try to proof read my messages before I hit the big send button. Up until recently I used to use Swype but my god, you wouldn't believe some of the messages I've sent without realising so it's now back to quick thumb typing for me!

Grammar does matter to us and can make a huge difference in what people are trying to say......

It's the difference between "Helping your Uncle Jack, off a horse" and "Helping your Uncle jack off a horse..."

Some retard will be a long to tell you that you've missed an apostrophe or a comma somewhere in that, but yes it's very off putting. Then another moron will play the dyselxia card. But basically people judge you on how you write online, just like they judge you on how you speak in real life. Typos don't bother me, but text speak does.

We're self-confessed grammar nazis, and we make no apologies for it.

Some people want their prospective meets to be shaven, or to have written something as a message header, or to jump through this hoop or that. All we ask is a decent message.

Depends if your house has a book shelf that isn't colour coordinated (missing apostrophe) or cat shit all over the carpet (text speak).

No but then we judge on a second by second basis. Can we really say we don’t fancy that obese, foul smelling person with poor personal hygiene if we aren’t Brad or Angelina?

For some people intelligence is more important than looks in deciding who they want to sleep with, that’s just their preference.

Similarly I do not come to this website to find out if someone can spell correctly, knows the difference between a colon and semi colon or can tell me the meanings of infer and imply.

Txt spk ws brought abt in WW2 when SMS messaging was first discovered and used. I find I can usually decipher what most messages say and that's because I have a wide a varied experience of people. So many "professionals" here can't string a sentence together correctly but does that make him more reliable? A liar? A time waster?

Grammar snobbery? No I don't so, more like lacking something. Being able to use correct grammar does not make you above anyone or any nearer the perfect swinger. It's the people that matter not some fake notion of "education"

Yes it bothers me. Most people have pet peeves and poor spelling/grammar is one of mine. I don't mind If it is readable, but to the extent where I'm having to work out where the punctuation goes is fairly frustrating.

As for text speak, I believe that's for the under 20s and it really bugs me!

It’s people’s inability to read that irks me on here, rather than their grasp of spelling or grammar.

They ask questions that they would know the answers to if they had just read the profile

That’s when I had a profile setting out exactly what I was and wasn’t looking for

Good morning all anyway

Text speak too...sorry but that is ridiculous. I've received messages that even a WW2 Enigma machine would have failed to crack!

I know. We live in a fast moving society nowadays but surely we should try and keep some standards?

Has anyone spotted the grammatical error?. Just saying...

No it’s doesnt really bother me, but I guess im more forgiving of it because I’m dyslexic, so I have to really try myself to write correctly and know I can still make mistakes regardless.

I even have to my phone screen tinted yellow because then I can read it easier

One of my favourite posters on the forums is seeside because I can read his posts with very little effort, because he spells everything as he phonetically hears it, when he speak the words, and the way my brains wired with my dyslexia it’s just easier for me to read

This post may have only taken someone else a minute to type and posts it’s taken me 15 mins with 2 proof reads

"I love reading the profiles of those who hate bad spelling/grammar/punctuation/whatever.

It's highly amusing most of the time. If you wanna criticise others, you better make sure you're own is shit hot, and can't possibly have holes picked in it.

Exactly this, there are so many spelling and grammatical errors in the posts in this thread from people bitching about exactly that.

You really should sort your shit out before throwing it at others

Well said .

I can honestly say that I have no idea how well educated the vast majority of our meets have been . We have never entertained the thought that a spelling / grammar test may be a good idea as a part of our vetting process .

I would hope if we ever needed to consider this , that someone would pull us up and ask us why . At this moment in time I would not be able to provide an answer , as I’m not a pretentious twat who cares one iota how well educated potential meets may be .

"People ranting about people grammar smacks of an 'I'm better than you attitude'

Maybe I'm missing something? Please point out the hidden meanings I missed.

the post about " how do I introduce my WIFE to swinging" maybe

Title + Opening post, How the fuck did you decipher that to mean "how do I introduce my WIFE to swinging""

Your a modern day Nostradamus I prophesise I will get laid

Amd i also. When the world ends.

Uggggg!! Tho shalt not let language evolve??

If language was not fluid then us Brits would still be speaking like Shakespeare wrote or each text message we received could be mistaken for an addition to the original 10 commandments!

Speaking of which, although we believe the commandments have been largely outdated by modern living - we still stick to not coveting our neighbours oxen!!!

I think it depends on how bad it actually is.

A millionaire businessman I know,actually went to private school and he uses the worst grammar ever.

I'm not great but I try and even you've got mistakes in your comment.

I've learned not to judge on messages alone,I actually met one guy who pestered me to meet him,but his messages weren't great in the respect he didn't really say much and I couldn't get a feel for him. He basically grunted one or two word's.

I just thought sod it and met him,which I'm glad I did because he was so different face to face,he was chatty and engaging. I now never judge on message's alone.

I find it quite odd that something people use to decide whether they wan't to sleep with someone or not is so contentious.

If someone were to say that they get annoyed by people turning up for meets with really bad BO would people start saying they are a snob and what does it matter if someone stinks or not?

Some people don't want to fuck a smelly person, some people don't want to fuck people who can't string together a coherent sentence, what's the difference?

Personally I find good spelling and grammar quite attractive in a person, I'm attracted to intelligence. Yes there are people who are poor spellers or have English as a second language but are intelligent and that will come through in their message.

It's the effort made that's important, I think it's a good indicator as to the effort they'll put in between the sheets.

It probably isn't perfectly written but as I'm trying not to deal in absolutes it doesn't really matter. If something isn't perfect that doesn't mean it's terrible, the world isn't black and white.

People have different values and that's great, it means we're all going to get laid and likely not all by the same people. I prefer someone who makes an effort with their messages, you don't. I don't criticise you for that, more power to you in fact as it means we aren't after the same folk!

some people,most people are just better in reality,many judge and your written word here even though most of what's said can be ambiguous is your advert,if you don't come well in your grammar it can be just another hurdle you fail at

It is it only ok not being perfect when it comes to you yourself that’s in question?

"I tend to give some ground at first.

I'll raise my had and say my grammar is not the best when I'm on here on my phone, but I try to make it the best possible if im on my laptop.

So I try to remember that.

That said text speak is an instant turn off. A girl would have to be special for me to still fancy her after seeing that."

I didn’t contradict myself at all, as I said just because something isn’t black it doesn’t mean it’s white. There are shades of grey and it just depends on how grey you like things.

I’m sure there are things you don’t like but you will put up with a certain amount of but once it gets to a certain point you draw the line. That’s how I feel about grammar and spelling.

That's a shame for you then as you may be missing out on a great meet,I've learned to be a little more fluid.

Just because someone may not be tiptop in their grammar and spelling a bit like yourself I may add,doesn't mean to say they're going to turn up in a tracksuit and trainers,speak in text talk and stink of body odour with their teeth falling out!

Again, as I’ve now said on a number of occasions, grammar and spelling doesn’t have to be perfect I just like it to be of a certain standard.

Never mind spelling and grammar there seems to be a problem with comprehension too.
