Look up the work of Edward Marlo, particularly his work on changes.

P.S. It is considered polite to use proper punctuation and grammar, aswell as introducing yourself fully (in the introductions forum) before asking in depth questions such as that. I suggest, for your own benefit, that you read over the forum rules and etiquette before going anyfurther. That way you'll avoid any unwanted "bad press".

All the best,

I don't know if it's the same guy, but we are having a lot of one-time posters at the moment...

Is there a way to ip check (and possibly ban) these posts.

I don't want to be rude but these posts don't bring anything valuable to the forums. What do you think mods ?

As you may have guessed from other posts, we aren't happy at TXT speak, unnecessary slang, abbreviations and so on and we have made this clear to anyone who reads the stickies at the start of the forum as well as in specific replies. In some cases, of course, there are genuine reasons for bad spelling, such as dyslexia, so we can't be too harsh but we are very much aware that some folks are just posting total crud which gives the forum a bad reputation, and wastes time in trying to decipher what may be a relevant message, or weeding out the less acceptable ones.

We all make mistakes and even the best spell checker won’t catch the correctly spelled, but totally wrong, words but it's easy to see who tries to minimise this and who doesn't. We try not to ban left right and centre as it usually results in a stream of personal and/or public abuse which we really don’t have time for. However, after being given several chances to improve, one or two names may mysteriously disappear! :wink:
