:Yes I guess I have thin skin but even two people e telling me I need to correct errors is not really being kind or helpful either. I know I am making errors and I do go back edit and then edit again . But alas I a m not perfect and now two people told me I need to correct errors. No kidding? Im not stupid and I do edit. I am however not perfect at all.Im working with a black keyboard that's nearly impossible to see later at night. Believe me I really am trying to find all errors and to edit them so its perfectly done. I want people to be able to read my posts too This really takes the joy out of having a new computer.as I struggle to try to correct any and all errors I may make.

That is kind of rude for them to point out the errors.

Agreed, its rude! If errors bother them then they should just skip the posts, not be rude about it.

@Hatley it seems to me that you are having fewer errors. I know how hard it is to see at night. When I find errors in my old discussions, I edit them. There is at least one person that corrects me about my grammar, but I do not remember who it was. I told her I was just lazy, LOL.I know you are older than I and I applaud you for doing so well. It sure keeps your mind active.

I use a glow in the dark keyboard for that reason. My aunt in law had me get her this one, it has larger and easier to see keys too, AND is cheap.

I have seen your clerical errors in your posts many times already but I never mind them. As long as I understand your discussion, then it's fine with me.

@Hatley you don't need to say sorry. It's fine. Really! And you're doing very well here. That's the most important. Your discussions help make this site alive.

I try to correct mine too. It'd get on my nerves if I kept correcting errors but more keep getting pointed out, so I can understand how you feel.

We are really not supposed to correct each other on here, just write as well as we can so others can follow suit. If people have a hard time reading or understanding they can just ask.

@GardenGerty I agree with you. If I constantly spell something wrong or if my autocorrect keeps screwing me over, I'd like to know. It helps me improve.. But sometimes it gets annoying if I get a person who corrects every post on social media like they're my high school English teachers all combined into one person lol (Those people are almost always found on the YouTube comment section o.o)

No worries, @Hatley - I'm sure I make plenty of errors myself - we all do. That wasn't nice of them to point that out to you!

Everyone makes mistakes and no one is perfect. That is why I never say anything about anyone else posts.

@Hatley - Ms Patsie - Pay no attention to reminders about your possible errors. The stuff I do the best is making errors. I make errors out of kindness. They give folks something about which to complain. Makes 'em happy and feeling alive and useful - that's what my errors do for folks. In other words, Ms Patsie, don't sweat the little stuff. Regards, Gus
