To many speed readers on the board!!!!!

[fgray1]

I'm not a great speller and I'm to lazy to use spell check.
But worse that my spelling is the members that speed read and misunderstand the point of the post, I've noticed alot of this lately.
Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me.
I think if they took the time to read all the words in the post, alot of arguments could be avoided.
Might get boring though. Who knows. Just an observation.

I agree, the back plate and wing is the way to go

But I also think it is sometimes like selective hearing, example.
There may be a certain sentence that really gets to them and they disregard the rest of the text to deal with that one.
I am guilty of this but force myself to read the whole thing a couple of times.

Spell check won't pick up on *to* as an incorrect spelling of *too*.

I agree with you on the efficacy of Backplates and Wings but you need to use the long hose too.

I agree with fgray1 because I was an example of "speed reading" I posted a thread that tells a story of a diving accident. Somebody without carefull reading thought that i was the instructor, which I was not and I clearly stated at the beggining that this was a story told by my friends.... So without proper reading somebody thinks I'm a total jerk (which I may be but not in this case).
But maybe it's a simple problem of reading with understading the text...

That's not very nice, to accuse Pug of making errors by calling it 'his bad.' And to the bone, no less??? :11:

I think you meant "You're bad to the bone."

I would like to take exception with something Mania said:

Personally I don't think you're a jerk without proper reading.

There's a spell check on this board? Where? From most the post I've read no one is aware of it! Isn't Spell Check DIR?
