PeeWee Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 im not! but no one has corrected me on my use of 'buncha' rather than 'bunch of' quietly suprised Because it's called nit picking rather than using a bit of thought in commenting on the actual subject.

Thought we wern't discussing your personal life, Steve? Maybe if people didn't pick out one wrong letter in a whole topic for the purpose of ridicule instead of commenting on the car he wouldn't need to?Personally I think he has done rather well to refrain from reacting to some quite awful posts.I have taken note of certain members that have given good advice and politely not reflected on previous mistakes, hats of to those members.Can we get back to the topic of the car now please!

Naylor2006 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I swear everyone is dyslexic these days. Its a shame that plenty of people have faked various exams to be diagnosed just to get a laptop etc, ive known people who have done it, its not cool, Im not saying this is a the case here and Steve's spelling is pretty darn good for someone who is dyslexic. My point is that 'everyone seems to be' because of the sheer amount of people screwing the system for personal gain so more people end up knowing someone is dyslexic. Well then to get back on topic lets see some more pictures of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not nit picking & I ignore a lot of errors. Like when people write 'could of' instead of 'could have' for instance. I recently had it pointed out that I was spelling definitely wrong & was writing definately instead. I welcomed the education & have learned from it. That might have been only one letter but it stuck out like a sore thumb & completely changes the word, making the sentence nonsense. Nor was the purpose of pointing it out to ridicule. Steve does better than most on here as far as grammar & spelling goes so the news of his dyslexia is surprising. Anyway I have to agree that a vn would have been a much better bet, but it seems a nice motor & look forward to seeing what happens with it.

Absolutely absurd from you, I expected better. You have time and time again asked people to refrain from mentioning Steve's personal life (and for good reason).If someone comments on his spelling (loose = lose and brought = bought are my pet hates) then sure, its nit picking.All it takes is for Steve to say "Fcuk off" and that's that sorted. But the lad decides to let people know he's dyslexic and tell us what school he went to.He doesn't have to do that. In order to keep your moderating fair - warn him too. If he doesn't bring up I won't mention it either! Back on topic - looks like a nice motor - bet the 3.0 diesel is brisk! Wouldn't mind a 330cd myself...

Completely agree, I cant see where anyone has mentioned his personal life yet Steve's said twice to stop talking about it then low and behold he brings it up. My advice however is to give up now, no matter how right you think you are you will not win. Anyway being dyslexic doesnt make you spell lose loose or bought brought, not paying attention to what you are typing does that usually. 180+ hp apparently, gotto pull pretty hard even though it guess its a pretty heavy car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
