which is very polite Mod speak for, 'stop being a wanker'.Chris,
With the the greatest respect, the Mental Health Forum was built differently from the rest of PNE-Online to allow people to post freely, either under their actual usernames, or as guests/anonymous. This was to allow people to participate freely and without prejudice, and also as it often takes a lot of guts for some people to talk about these serious issues the goal was to create a forum where people could post without being judged. I'd say that picking up on grammatical and/or spelling errors could be enough to knock the confidence of someone to not post for fear of criticism, something we don't want to happen.
Could everyone bear this in mind when contributing on this particular sub-section. Thanks all for your co-operation

My opinion may not be popular with you illiterates but at least I pay to express it. Unlike you and the Channel Islander.........
There should be a comma before 'but'. Just saying.

I can never understand why people get so wound up about grammar and spelling on an online forum, especially when such an interesting and important discussion is underway.
