Hi all,Thought I'd through this out here for some thoughts,,,When using forums, you're thoughts may not be red the way you want them too bee,puntuation & spelling can change the hole way the reader interprets watt is meant,you may say something jokingly but the reader seas it as sarcasm,,another time you may want it tobe taken as sarcasm? And the reader takes it seriously then their is the spelling of wurds that sound alike,take there ,I mean their,no I mean they're,,well you get my drift,,,In the coming year lets not be two quick to jump to conclusions on how you reed something on this or any other boards,,I really believe that some small skirmishes may have happened in the past ,because of the formentioned possibilities,,Happy Holidays,,Blessings&tightlines,Mark

PS: this actually happened to me on another board& I notified the poster by e-mail that what I had posted was not meant to be funny& when I explained the situation,the poster could not apologize enough,but I saw how my post could have been meant to be cute.:beerchug:

no doubt mark!... you've touched on something that is very clear to me... but often isn't with some members: you have to be very careful when responding to a post that you find offensive...don't assume you know what the poster's intention is... miscommunication and misunderstandings are the #1 problem with internet message boards...members, please be a little more tolerant of others and ask questions before you jump all over someone... you'll more often than not find that the author's intentions were not what you thought they were.

great point mark!:beerchug:
