...then pay a visit to Autocar.co.uk, which would appear to be a sister site to this one.

They complained about the site and look what they've got now...!!

Before this goes any further, let us not go down the correcting everyones posting route. This is not a test in the English Language, nor is it the place to "correct " others mistypes.

"Afetr all, it dsoe not mkae mcuh diffrence wehre the atcual lettres are palced in a sentnece, the brian olny sees the wohle word and auto corrects for mislpaced lettres"

The above was taken from a cognitive study which I studied as part of a degree course.

I was only referring to my own poorly composed and mis-spelt postings and did not mean to criticise anyone else.

I just find it irritating not to be able to correct my own mistakes, others may not, thats their business. I was raised to believe that the use of sloppy language was a sign of a sloppy mind.

Steve, I deliberately ignored your previous useless contribution - but now you're getting personal...I suggest your sloppy MIND should MIND its own business.

Did it?? The matter that actually prompted me to start this post seems to have been swamped by a silly argument over spelling and grammar! I thought it was interesting what had happened to the Autocar Forum which is a sister to this one. Obviously not!! Merry Chrissmas all. Sorry Steve, I'll retype that, Merry Christmas all, even to you Steve.

Why would any mod be interested in even trying to help upgrade a forum when they read such crap as above. Stop thread hijacking and keep on topic.
