Learning how to spell or at least proof read your post.
Things to consider before you post.
Monday, January 28, 2008 by mschleisner | Discussion: Community
Don't post till you check your spelling. I know it might be difficult but why look like someone with a second grade education when you know you can do better. I think most just post and never look back to read what they have written first. Maybe you look after you post and think "oh no" did I really do that? Most miss-spelled words are just that, the person couldn't spell it, some are just silly as in the word wallpapers or problem, those look like someone who is frustrated but I think just re-reading your work is a must before you post. No one here might say anything but we do think it. There is no spell check for the posts here and I have been at other sites that have them and people seem to think they are too smart to use them. 
I would say to that, so sorry but your post didn't make the cut because you didn't spell check. Here there isn't that option so you must proof read your post first and if you are not sure of the spelling please look up the word first to make sure you look like someone took a little time to read before you post. I do this for my own sanity. I try very hard to make sure I at least try to spell it right before I post. I might not be the brightest bulb in the box but I don't want to look like the broken bulb either. Please just check before you post and save the people here from looking at these mistakes and try to use "Caps" where needed. Couldn't hurt. Thanks from someone who goes crazy when she views posts like this.

Wincustomize is what we, the community, make of it.
It can be fun and serious, and sad, and hopeful.
It can be all those things in the same thread. It is a living, breathing, entity
Well said Zubaz.. one thing for sure is that , as far as I am concerned ,the day WC loses that sort of integrity will be the day I leave here ... and I sure hope that will never happen !!

Dead thread....
No I don't want replies to this thread directed at me any longer.
I just stopped in to see the thread was still growing?
I tried to stop it long ago with my willingness to be told I was wrong and that was that.
I had people stick up for me, people who were rude to me, people who made jokes of my thread.
I wanted to just forget I ever said anything.
I have not started any new threads since.
I have not tried to upload any new wallpapers nor will I in the future.
I have decided to just watch, listen, take what I need and move on but when I checked last this thread was still going.
It changed in context.
It became funny.
Then became mean.
It has been more than a request to look at what we post before we post so it looks good for the site.
It became a nightmare for me as a person who felt like an idiot.
I became uninterested in it's silly bantering.
I became upset at the mean and nasty postings directed at me or the language I speak or don't speak well.
Am I an American ? I will not say.
Was I educated in the U.S.A.?
I will not say.
Does my family speak and write in another language ?
I will not say.
What I will say is that I was treated like a fool and am on a regular basis here.
I think most of the people here are decent and really nice, some are just plain mean and nasty.
It is the internet where we all can say what we please and do what we please to others without getting any type of punishment for what we say to people or how we treat others.
It has become very sad.
It will only get worse in the future.
I would like to say for the last time, I no longer am willing to communicate with those who are mean and nasty here.
I will check my past posts and see what is said.
I will continue to see what is downloaded from my site.
I will continue to drop by to see what is new.
I will defend my post to the end and it is now the end. Thanks
