Message: [QUOTE="Bongo, post: 3101102, member: 8455"] I am not saying its malicious just counterproductive to point out people's grammatical/spelling mistakes away from a professional environment. I dont think people view it as constructive and all it does is get discussions bogged down in semantics. There are studies about people who become frustrated about grammatical errors and those who look past them. It makes for interesting reading. The use of grammar is about knowing the rules of writing English not about the value of content. In my view more is achieved by looking past grammatical errors and debating subject matter. Great content can have grammatical errors but grammatically correct content can equally be devoid of substance. I don't think this forum is the place for corrections. Especially when it is used to counter an argument in a pedantic way. The only way to do it on a forum is publically, which is not ideal. I am a lawyer but I don't interact in this forum like I do professionally. People want to express opinions here not to be grammatically assessed. Also, when making a correction the person better be right about it or they can look rather silly. [/QUOTE]
