Guest Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Welcome Nick, ignore dodger's comment, some are a bit anal retentive. I'm not under 16, lol, but wanted to welcome you. Hope we see some of your builds. Is your avatar you and your girlfriend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2002p51 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Welcome Nick, ignore dodger's comment, No Nick, don't ignore dodger's comment. Using the language correctly is imperative for success in life. No one will hire you for any sort of job if your resume is full of grammatical and spelling errors. NO ONE! In spite of what you see in popular culture and on your smart phone, spelling is important. Now, welcome to the forum and let's see some models!

mopar68 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Not under 16, but I've been on forums (not this one in particular) since I was. Don't worry too much about the spelling thing, yes it's important, but a typo here and there is understandable. We're human after all, right?

Jantrix Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 We have quite a few folks here in their teens. And some that aren't but still act like it, myself included. In either case you are in good company here. Excellent point Drew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Smith Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) And some will alway's be ignorant. Who could let this pass?

Danno Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 No Nick, don't ignore dodger's comment. Using the language correctly is imperative for success in life.

Now, welcome to the forum and let's see some models! Amen, Drew! As an aside, I'm surprised Danny missed the first most glaring error: 'Youthfullness' is correctly spelled "youthfulness." Welcome, Nick. Take the commentaries as opportunities to learn, not reasons to burn. You'll go farther and get farther that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) Not under 16, but I've been on forums (not this one in particular) since I was. Don't worry too much about the spelling thing, yes it's important, but a typo here and there is understandable. We're human after all, right? That is precisely my point. A mistake or two is fine. I do not like the text shortcuts that some use, but a spelling and puntuation mistake on occasion is ok. And, mr. dodger, I unlike you state am not ignorant, I just want to cut him some slack, which is more than I have seen some do here.

Lunajammer Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Take the commentaries as opportunities to learn, not reasons to burn. You'll go farther and get farther that way. Or would that be further? Farther would be a physical spacial distance. Further would be a figurative distance, as in, further in life... unless he ends up in Botswana. That would be pretty far.
