Hi there smile Welcome to SG. I just saw your posts about the cameras and whatnot, and I
thought I'd try and give you a friendly piece of advice if you are willing to take it.
This place is a community unlike most on the internet. People here are really passionate
about a lot of things, and the groups are like really tight-knit families. People also
appreciate that when you are posting something, you are not texting your friends or
posting a random comment just for the sake of commenting. That's why you don't see a lot
of the texting lingo, like ppl or ne1 or anything like that. It's a sign of respect for
your fellow SGers to use proper spelling, punctuation and grammar. Of course, no one
expects perfection, but they do expect you to speak like an adult. I am trying to say
this is as nice a way as possible; please don't think I am trying to bring you down or
anything. I just have been around long enough to know that newbies don't get many second
chances to make good first impressions, and reputations build quickly. Just want you to
enjoy your experience here! smile
Good luck with your camera, and once again, welcome smile
here is the reply i sent him .....................

" as you have in this blog that you are dyslexic, gives people a heads up as to why your grammar and spelling may not be up to their level. Maybe no one knew that! You can't hate on people for not knowing! "
that clarifying was to point out how ignorant those people are. but i guess you didnt get that
do you warn everyone b4 you go out in public with a friend that you dont look like every outher girl??.... you r not average ,...some people may be offended by your appearance... or that you have your own opinions and you dont hide who you are for ne one..
how rude .......... this is.. i thought .. a place where people who were different could go ....why do i have to be at her him or ne1 elss level ? ........point out all my faults and mistakes if it makes you feel beter than me .. in your world you are beter than me.. your smarter you type and spell great....in my world i dont care enough about the people who think there beter than me, or think its ok to judge me, to even click on there name to see if they are a boy or a girl ....
I am amazed at how superficial many of you are....... you judge me by how my blog looks to you .......wile pretending to send a message to the world by your choice to be different that everyone suld be excepted for who they are on the inside.
or maybe you just want to look like people who feel that way....
and welcome to SG ...
I saw you posting in the Geezer group, and thought I'd come check you out.
um ... well, as far as your blog is concerned, ... don't sweat it Bro, just hang in there. People seem to misinterpret what is typed vs. what is meant to be said. Sometimes I like to read through a post twice, before I make a comment, so that I can view it differently each time.
other than that, I made you a friend, so I hope to see you around more!
