    Wobbler, do you happen to have Microsoft Word installed on your computer? If so, please write your posts there instead, it will automaticly change i to I if you choose English as your language.

    Otherwise, download some other similar program and if it's not there already add replace i with I somewhere in the options.

    And why was my post edited!? I said I make some mistakes, I said
    I was sorry for it and that i apologized, and you edit it making me look like a total moron!? Why was that necessary!?

    Because you manage to write a post about forgetting to capitalize I without capitalizing I. I understand if you don't remember it all the time, but seriously, your memory can't be that bad..

    I don´t want to be on any side as I try to stay as neutral on this forum as possibly but Mathboy, did you really have to edit his post where he said he was sorry?

    Acutally, it can. As you may have noticed, I did capitalize most of them,
    but sometimes (quite often to be true) my eyes just slip past some
    of the 'I's and ignore the fact that they are not capitilized.

    Yes. Would you be mad at somebody if, while apologizing for hitting you, the person hit you repeatedly?

    Wobbler:
    If you run your posts through some program that chages i to I or proofread them slowly and carefully, I will try not to delete any more of your posts.

    I will consider doing on of them.
    But while talking about hitting while exscusing,
    I don't like to be corrected about grammar error
    when the one correcting me can't spell "change", nor take's
    the time to read his post carefully so no grammatic error is there.

    I know I usually don't read through my posts, but that is because I usually don't repeat the same mistake over and over, at least, no one has pointed it out to me. I apologize for writing "chages". Please, if anyone finds spelling or grammatical errors in my post, point it out, so I'll learn more.

    And with this I believe this matter would be worked out and done.
    Unless anyone else has another opinion to add to this discussion.

    Yes. Does a little proper grammar and proper sentence structure hurt? Or do you have so little time that you cant read through and just check?
    Trust me it makes everything a hell of a lot easier for everyone else.

    I try to, but im not used to use perfect grammar everytime I write
    so I can only do my best. But sometimes there will be grammtical errors
    aswell as some user will do typos sometimes, and I hope that I won't
    be dragged in to a discussion like this again, unless I have done something real noticable wrong.

    Not only because it's annoying, but also because it's a sign of latent or active Spambot.

    It also shows that you use chat rooms too often, are probably over 20 and prey on little girls and boys.

    My content are readible, I don't use the word LOL. The only complain is
    the fact that I don't always use capitle 'I' and I don't think it's get less readible for some 'i's instead of 'i'.

    And I don't thinks its any harder to hold down the [Shift] key when you press the key. So just do it, you know you're supposed to and we like conformists around here.
