I'm rubbish with computers, but can manage to put a coherent sentence together, and I can also adjust for windage, what a strange post. So, your theory is, the worse your spelling/grammar, the better the shot you are? That sniper who got a kill at 1 mile must be a dribbling moron....

simon6ppc Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 at the end of the day there are more things to worry about in life than a few spelling mistakes.no offence taken. i am getting better at spelling and may be worse at shooting now with all the time i spend on this forum.

I meant no offence either, I just gave up trying to understand the OP's post. Just a little time to read through what is written makes all the difference to whether people reply or not. Happy shooting. The replies to an honest assessment of a persons attempt to put into writing what he has experienced, has been shot down by a load of ******* BULLIES. you should all be ashamed of yourselves. ******* TOSSERS Eloquent, I don't anyone has been rude,its been tongue in cheek, and as I've said, I honestly couldn't get my head around the post, so gave up reading it, if the OP wants some feedback, maybe just a bit more effort into making the text readable?

Dave-G Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Little wonder why the general public think shooters are a bunch of uncouth yobs who disliked the concept of going to school. I can't help but wonder if some people actually get breathless reading their own posts before hitting the reply button. I have to concede though that a rather large dollop of blame goes towards the teaching profession that taught kids to spell something the way it sounds rather than learn how to teach English properly. The era of internet forums and facebook type web sites has made the issue much more apparant. I frequently find people who use English as a second or third language seem to have a better grasp of it than some of our poorly educated citizens. I'm not a perfectionist and I dare say someone could pick a few flaws in my efforts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
