So if a newbie has trouble with grammar or spelling.......are you saying that he/she should go somewhere else if they have a problem or need advice concerning their spider ?
If that is the general concensus here,I will have to ply my trade elsewhere I am afraid,which is such a shame....for me that is.

Not to speak for the person you were addressing, but no, they shouldn't go somewhere else. Just learn to take some constructive criticism when their posts are hard to read and learn from it. Learning something new everyday, is a great way to be and if that something can be proper grammar, then it is a big accomplishment. Though, i do wonder what you have against 'er' as they aren't spids. i thought maybe those two letters had done something to you, but i see from this post, they haven't.....

Of course not. They're just saying they find it easier to read posts with the correct grammar. Me?.....I don't really care. With all due respect, you seem to be getting overly defensive about the whole issue. The grammar debate has been a part of these boards for ages and it looks like it's here to stay, so you've got to learn to take comments constructively . It's all good fella.

I think this thread has been derailed enough already so I'll apologize to the OP for my part in it and hope the subject of roseas comes back around .

anybody over the age of 8 who has been to school knows there is such a thing as punctuation if someone writes a 50-100 word post without one single period comma or capitalization they are fully aware of having done so to ask somebody else to hack their way through that jungle of words and decipher the meaning before even addressing the answer to the question is just rude sorry if you don't like it but that's how it is nobody writes a whole paragraphs worth of run-on sentence by accident they're being lazy
this is plain and simple forum etequitte you will see this opinion in forums from apples to oranges and spiders to puppies one should have a little of this courtesy if they want an answer to a question

Ok, now read it again. You tell me which is easier to understand.

Nobody is saying it needs to be perfect or anywhere near perfect but people should at least make an effort.




And, in effort to stay on topic, here are some G. rosea pics of mine.

Thanks guys, I found the pics I was really looking for just a second ago... Check these out. And spit, that first one was a taken on a phone. I have plenty of other T's and true spideys too, btw. These are just my rosies.

This is my one teenaged sweetheart rosie, the second T I ever owned.

You often say 'spid' instead of spid'er'. Just an observation and was trying to be funny about it.........note to self: it didn't work....

 

[myles756]

Please use its correct scientific name of G. rosea, common names are pretty much useless.(even though we know what you mean with this one)

Also, it's neat to see that you are from Littleton. i used to run a movie theatre up there.

How do you expect anyone in America (this IS an American site, is it not?) to understand your 'spid' and 'spanner' and all your other English words we don't use here?

Then when someone asks what it means, you act as if they should know and refuse to tell them?

But you get on us for commenting on how much easier it is to punctuate and spell and form complete sentences?

Hypocrite.

Wait a minute...

Why is Rosie (her name, not meaning her breed) an evil cow? It seems everyone else has nice ones! Totally unfair! If I even open the top to feed her she rares up at me, and no its not hunger, shes on a food strike atm. Maybe she really DOES need some lovin to perk her up...
