Start running muskyone. No, I won't use the "P" word, just teasin there.<br />I read a post the other day. The guy was in real deep with his engine and needed help bad. Trouble was, his post was 18 lines long, no "P" no commas, no Capitol letters, no new paragraphs, just one big run on sentence. I had no idea what he was saying, just double talk, full of ya knows, and double negatives that were hard to connect. The wires were messed up. Then the gas, carb, starter. Couldn't help him cause sure weren't knowing what he said was a question. <br /><br />start running muskyone no i wont use<br /><br /> the p word just teasin there i read a post the other day the guy was in real deep with his engine and needed help bad trouble was his post was 18 lines long no ps no<br /> commas no capitol letters no new paragraphs just one big run on sentence i had no idea what he was saying just double<br /> talk full of ya knows and double negatives that were hard to connect the wires were messed up then the gas carb<br /> starter couldnt help him cause sure werent knowing what he said was a question<br /><br />wooditbebetterifwetypedlikethisallthetimeforthosethathavetheirownstyleandhintoflocalflavorintheirspeachandthenwewonderwhyourengineaintworkingcausewegotbaninputfrommemberwithpoorint erpretation<br /><br />

Re: For You English Majors

Hmmmm.<br /><br />I edit posts sometimes in the hope of making them more understandable. More than once I have simply ignored a question that I couldn't make sense of.<br /><br />If you have a question, your odds of getting a clear and useful answer are directly proportional to the completeness, clarity and readability of your question. Spelling, punctuation and capitalization make it readable.<br /><br />If that's the best communicating you can do, go ahead, do it. It is much better than nothing but please don't complain if it just doesn't work.<br /><br />By the way, why is this thread a thread and a half wide?

alieuns JB..just posted like I normally do....I see your point when addressing boat and engine questions. But here, is a more laid back area and any member who enters this area has got to except to be subjected to a little fun with the english correctness..

JB, even MY typoneese translator started to smoke and sputter over those posts, and ive been on the net for more hours than there are leagues to the moon, lol<br /><br />eh, write what ya feel, let the rest sort em out<br /><br />just remember that the clearer the question, the better the answer<br /><br />Right Joe Reeves?<br /><br />(He pointed out that I occaisionally ramble, and once in a GREAT while I do)<br /><br />like this time out in Hydrophobia with my buddy Chris, I started talking about how I hate navigating in fog, and of course, a fog was rolling<br /> in at the time .. by the time I finished the fog was so thick that ... <br /><br />whoops<br /><br />there I go again!
