I suggest you keep your shorthand for your text message's and try to write proper english here , we won't charge you any more for typing the full words and the people trying to read this with a translator might even understand what the hell your talking about.
If I see anymore post's like that their getting deleted
LOL
You were doing fairly well until you wrote that last sentence. It is "the worst english I have seen, until now"....
Technologers generally have always sucked at grammar and english and that goes for Americans and Canadians especially; those who should know better. I agree that cellphone or twitter shorthand is leaning towards ghetto and is inappropriate here.
With the ENG 099 crash course prerequisite behind us, now it's time to welcome everyone to ENG 311.
Here's the correct way to write the sentence: "If I see anymore posts like that, they're getting deleted"
POSTS was a plural, not a possessive, so no apostrophe is warranted. Same goes for MESSAGES used in a prior sentence.
THEIR is a possessive, whereas THEY'RE is a contraction of "they are".
So,
there you go. With a proper example of
messages,
they're now going to use proper english in
their posts, or a
post's contents are rightfully deleted, as would be many
posts' contents if everyone gets it wrong.
Lighthearted chops busting aside, thanks for keeping this place from turning into a ghetto, teen talk on cellphones, leetspeak, or twitter tweets by twits.
