In the beginning it was certainly something to get used to, but I don't really think it's that much of an hassle. Still, I'm a decently fluent typist which somewhat helps of course.frijsdijk said:Am I the only one that feels posting on these forums is a hassle everytime. Only rarely posts are unedited/untouched by the administrators on these forums.

Hm, I don't quite share that experience. I also use styles like italics or bold (seldom) to try and emphasize the importance of what I'm trying to get across, but so far never experienced a moderator change the essence of my message.matoatlantis said:I do get the goal of keeping certain style and level of professionalism here, but lot of times it feels like you can't express yourself and your thoughts have to be in the way moderator feels it's right. E.g. I do hate when articles are modified in the sentence in the way I would not use them.

I have Dutch and English dictionaries, you can switch relatively easy between themTiberiusDuval said:I do not speak English as my native language, typos are mainly due not using auto-correct function of my browser, because if I'd use said function it would mark as red every Finnish sentence and word I use.
Unfortunately Firefox only has a spellings-checker. It doesn't understand grammar. And it's grammar that's usually a problem. It can be quite hilarious though (not you personally but in general). A sentence using English words and Dutch grammar really sounds silly. We call it Dunglish or "steenkolen Engels" (roughly translated, "coalminers English").And correction of grammar errors just help me in refining my English skills.
