Quote:I,ll tell you something i have got 4 gcse in english and literature when i said i couldnt be bothered to use commas and fall stops i wasnt being funny, is it such a big deal , surely what you write about is the most important thing not how you write it . deanna
What is "4gcse"? Does that mean you have a learning disability? You seem to spell and string words together well enough - I've not heard of a learning disability that only affects commas and stops.
Seriously, I'm not trying to pick on you Deanna. The ultimate goal is communication, which is the product of both what you are saying and how you say it. Not using "." and "," can change your meaning and detract from your statements and credibility. It's not a big deal or difficult to place a "." when you take a breath, and I'm sure you can tell when you take a breath. It's a courtesy to readers who are also burdened by time constraints and limitations. For example, not everyone here has English as their first language.
