come on now! Some adds give me such a headache!!!!! This is insane! To me English is second language, and I make mistakes now and then (most people do), but this is absolutely ridiculous how some of these adds are written! Mods should simply delete them! How hard is it to use some punctuation! I have no idea if you are talking about your engine or your interior, what needs work, what is rusted or what is great! I wouldn't make this post if it was just one add, 90% of adds on here are horrible! Just common courtesy to put punctuation!   :brickwall:

Some are pretty bad  . . . I agree.  In yours . . . "come on now" the C should be capitalized and the word "adds" is not correct . . . Proper should be "ads" . . . . No double D when used in that format.   :2thumbs:
Tomorrow is promised to NOBODY . . . .

English is my second as well.  Well fourth actually but no matter.  I am the go to guy at work on how to properly spell.  It's mind boggling how bad some people's English is and it's their native language!

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I'm with you on the punctuation (and capitalization) as well.  If I need to read a text message I'll ask my own kids to send me one.

Don't you mean, you'll ask your kids to explain it? I don't understand 3/4 of the abbreviations.

I totally agree as well!  But . . . if you're going to point the finger, make sure you have it correct to start with.

i was talking about gud versus good

gud is 3 letters
good is 4 letters

and the O is in the same spot twice it isnt that hard just to hit it again.

the only time "gud" should be used is in a texting situation where you might be limited on the number of characters, when you are on the internet at home people should not be so lazy to type gud when good isnt that hard

my kids dont like to talk on the phone. they always text me. i cant understand half the made up words in the paragraph. i get a text from them and i just call them and say "it takes too long to type my answer, so lets talk". :yesnod:
