....Yes, definitely do what Nick suggests. It can be tricky being a Moderator and very testing. I'm one on another forum but everyone there so far is always well behaved!

You'll never please all the people all of the time and it's not worth trying to.

Stick with it, Phil :afro:

No worries Phil, you did the right thing. Sometimes people have to realise that forums are open to everyone and their opinions. However, they are moderated to ensure that, especially on a site like this, things said actually have relevance to the topic of the forum itself (i.e. the Golf GTi). Someone's grammar therefore is frankly irrelevant, especially seeing as so many people type in a modern style shorthand these days anyway. The thread became pointless and unhelpful, and his grammar wasn't perfect anyway which makes the whole thing hypocritical anyway. Keep up the good work Phil.  :wink:

....wellzee - I'd just like to add that sometimes when posts are extreme in their poor spelling and punctuation and use nothing but txt-speak, the possibly useful information simply cannot be understood. It's often just laziness and (hopefully!) rarely illiteracy.

Also, we must be allowed to meander slightly from topics for the odd moment or two, otherwise it would get very very dull and far too nerdy in my opinion. A forum needs healthy and amusing banter as well as dry information.

Agreed  :wink:. Especially since my motoring knowledge is limited. I'm pretty much living on banter alone over here!
