The ellipsis has three, not two dots, is only one kind of punctuation mark, and is has a specific use. It is not suitable for substitution for any and all punctuation marks, although you seem to find it fit for this arduous task. Please finish the third grade before posting on our site again.

Jesus man; yes his grammar skills are lacking but is there any need for that?

In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.

Wrong spelling. Wrong word.
Don't you mean to criticize his spelling?

bigMoney - I took the time to read his old posts. He has not contributed anything but useless threads, and I feel that the site would be better without him. I'm not saying you have to contribute as a newbie, but wasting our time with loads of dumb questions and not bothering to search or read up on the material is one of those things that really gets to me. If he was willing to go pull some junkyard parts and try to make them work, then great. But he wasn't, he was just talking out his ass, and I hope he's gone for good.
Roger - nice catch. I'm amazed at how often people misspell grammar when criticizing someone. Or how often they confuse grammar, punctuation, and spelling.

tour96se - I am familiar with your posts, and I understand the sentiment with which you made that comment. I wasn't going after you: you actually say things that aren't assinine. Bad spelling, poor grammar, and the general inability to communicate an idea doesn't make you a bad person (not that you have thos qualities, but mystiqueness does), but they are frustrating enough that I will never take BS from anyone who exhibits them. Not that I take BS from well-spoken people, but I at least hear them out.

sometimes its good to just stay silent. Im sorry but this is a public board not an article or a publication. if grammar bothers you so much then maybe you have some kind of problem.Please don't let small things like these destroy our community.

There are lots of people here who don't bother to communicate in a clear manner. That's fine; it's only to their detriment. This kid has other traits that are not so easily tolerated.
