I actually picked a poster up on his spelling and some other guy jumped in saying does it matter - you understood what he was trying to say.
Well, this may sound like a tirade (and it is) but I am bloody sick of this text speak, wrong spelling and the "I just can't be bothered with the difference between there, their and they're or no, now and know" etc...
As an ex-Royal Signals Yeoman I am well used to the art of decoding messages but I really shouldn't have to do it now I have left the sodding green and trying to read posts on a forum
Rant over, thank you for consigning my ire to Cyberspace.....
Puts "Tin Hat On" and awaits comments....... ;-)

I've been a member for over 2 years and been reading it since 2006. It has changed a lot.
In the past year the pace of change has increased and a huge number of new people have joined. There are a lot more thick people on this forum these days who seem to see Bluemoon as just another place to chat the same crap that they do everywhere else on the internet. It's sad.
The saving grace is that a few do stay around and contribute properly, and as a result the core of bluemoon also gets stronger.
The forum is changing, and that's good in a way, but at the moment, I think it could either way. Bluemoon could descend into to total txt speak, short msg, post pic n gif hell ,or we could see it rising again as something a lot better.
Can't see a half way house at the minute.

Spelling and grammar throughout British society is appalling. I work with graduates and their mistakes are atrocious.
At least 70% of the posts on this forum appear to have been constructed by complete fucking morons.
