But, look here, I don't know why you're behind, so what can you expect from me? I can't be understanding if I don't know. So, no, I don't understand how someone who uses a spellchecker makes those kinds of mistakes, so it'd probably be a lot more helpful to enlighten me, here or in PM. My observation was not meant to insult you; I was merely giving advice based on what I knew, and I had waited a long to time to say it in order to give you time to improve.
Plus, I frequent the Tea room and Muffin room, and I've never seen anyone criticize you (or at least can't remember, if it had been a small, passing comment or something) but, even if they had, it's unlikely that it was done in malice. So, if spelling and grammar is such a problem, don't even take it out on anyone that actually insults you. If you really want to improve the situation, you have a bunch of helpful, understanding and friendly people all around you. I, for one, am not here to put a thorn in your foot. Whether or not anyone knows the reason behind the spelling and grammar, I'm sure that there's someone willing to work with you so what you write in captions comes out better. Don't think of it as degrading to need help or support; think of it as friendly interaction.
When it comes to making a difference about yourself or your environment, the only person who can really make a difference is yourself. Getting upset will just drive people away. I'm saying this because I care, not because I don't. One thing that I suggest is to send someone the text that you have written for your captions, let them go over it, then use what they send back. There are a lot of people out there, even those that are better than myself, that have others look over and fix what they've written. There's nothing wrong about it at all.
So, in parting, whatever you do, I only encourage you to continue to try and improve yourself in whatever way that you feel will work for you.
Sorry I went off back there. It's just been I've been getting alot of flames from people, ever since my "home forum" cloesed down I've been hopping from one fourm to anothing. I must of been to at lest 10 diffrent fourms over the last few years before landing here.
I guess I'm still alittle bitter from all the bull shit people have given me at other fourms. I try to explain my self to them, I try to explain why I'm behind, and how hard I work to improve my self. But every time I'm ignored and then people go on about how I'm just trying to "make excuses". It's became very discorugeing for me on message bords lately.
It was wroung of me to snap, and I feel horrible about it now. I hope you can forgive me.
I also just want to note I don't feel like shareing why I'm behind and such. It has became abit of a soft spot for me, and I've had just too many people stab me in it. I hope this hasn't put anything between us, and that all that made some bit of sence.
