Thank you all for understanding me that’s a good I dare the_mog I did not think about using word to check my spelling then copy and paste on to here that would make my life easier and others user to I will do that that’s ok the_mog you did not know i had dyslexia thank you for apologizing to me thanks again

i strongly suggest you use a spell checker program and then cut and paste before hitting the submit button

Sorry I am not that good at spelling or gramer I have dyslexia it might just be best for me not to write any think on the forums oh well I had a go thanks for your time

i have no problem with dyslexic people posting on the forum... there are actually one or two that i know of that post regularly here but they use a spell checker before posting. i believe a popular way to do it is to type it in "Word" first then cut and paste it to here

Sorry mog, but that was really unfair.

There are plenty of people out there who have learning difficulties or come from countries where English isn't their first language.

I find it really sad when people, esp. new members are brought down because of their spelling. It can be very daunting for people with reading/writing difficulties to post on a forum like this and takes alot of courage. Banging them down isn't going to help them is it, we should be encouraging those people to post not putting them off by distroying their confidence.

I'm not knocking him at all and i applaud his courage in posting here knowing that he is dyslexic and that he might have troubles. However if i was aware that i had this particular problem and i knew that others would have difficulty reading what i posted then i would use a spell checker. as i said i know at least one prolific poster on this forum who has dyslexia and there are another couple who dont have it but still use a spell checker before posting.


if i came across as being harsh then i apologise fully as it was not my intention but if you can type on here then surely you can type on Word and paste it across.
