I fail to see the relevance. George W. Bush has an MBA, but it in no way
debars him from being an arsehole.

On the other hand, someone with any intelligence (or integrity) would
not make deliberately misleading postings to advertise a business he
was starting.
If your company was legitimate, and if you had any sense, you would
have made a short posting about it. Sure, a few people might have
taken exception to advertising, but we'd probably have forgiven you.
Instead, you posted in a way designed to make your outfit look
mendacious, insubstantial and just plain dodgy.

s/but it in no way debars him from being /which demonstrates beyond
all doubt that he is

And though this may be a petty point, leaving out punctuation and
capital letters really doesn't inspire confidence. Makes you look like a
chav sending texts.
Fair comment

Which university do you claim gave you a degree?

So, not the best time to be advertising your business then?

Funny, that.
From my days at University, one of the requirements of being given a
degree certificate was that you had at least a basic understanding of
the English language.
You appear to be an illiterate, lying, fuckwit.

Yes i can't be bothered to use a spell check, which should tell you

Judging from the demotic language in your post, I would say you were

Not a very professional way to do business, is it?
I'd never deal with a business which has such a teenage chav attitude to
spelling and grammar.
I suspect most other posters here have the same opinion.

You are the same person who's trying to sell something to a customer,
aren't you?

I recently had a rant on our local FreeCycle explaining that I'd not
consider any of the Wanted posts if they didn't have capital letters and
punctuation - nor would I dispose of any of my Offered items to anyone
who couldn't be arsed to use English.
Got a swarm of emails from like minded FreeCyclers.

Heh.
Saw something like that on my local one, too.
I'm losing patience with FreeCycle these days, though - last week I
offered some half decent stuff in a garage clearout (like 2 nearly new
hover mowers and a working computer) - despite having emails promising
collection, no-one turned up.
Mind you, I stay subscribed just to laugh at the crazy 'wanted' posts -
usually from illiterates. (Wanted: ne psp stuff, working lappy, etc...
although the best ones are 'Wanted: Ford Escort. must be less than 10
years old with tax and mot, I'm housebound so you would have to
deliver')

Neither can you use capital letters correctly.
The thing is, people who you are trying to convince ARE swayed by poor
grammar and spelling. Smacks of outright lazy bone idleness and
amateurism.

"infact" is not a word in the English language.
Using several psuedonyms in a vain attempt to fool people just smacks
of desperation. Is your product so crap that you have to resort to such
things?

So didn't they teach any punctuation in English? I can still remember most
of my grammar lessons and it was 27 years ago that I passed O level.

Probably not. It was untrendy for quite a while in the 80's/90's then
the teachers who had grown up not being taught it have to (try to) teach
it to the kids of today...
One of whom seems to be posting here. Seriously though, he puncuates
worse than my dyslexic and slightly autistic son did when he was six.

It is dire. And I certainly wouoldn't buy anything form somebody with
such a bad command of English, and such a lack of respect for potential
customers.
Of course, in this case even if the English was perfect there are many
many other reasons to stay at the other end of a non-contact narrowboat
wrangling device.

Erm, Paul....
You do realise you've dropped a bollock in your grammar rant a couple of
posts back, don't you?

Me? Grammar rant?
Must be somebody else, guvnor.
I guess you mean the "80's and 90's". Debatable.
From askoxford.com:
"An apostrophe is used:
when letters or numbers are referred to in plural form:
mind your p's and q's; find all the number 7's"
I would contend that I was referring to the plurality of 1981, 1982,
1983 etc. and therefore "80's" is correct. You may be thinking of the
singular "decade known as the 80s" in which case you would be correct in
the larger sense, but wrong in this instance.
But thanks for playing ;-)

Ask Oxford are, IMHO, wrong.
I'd never use an apostrophe in this context.
I'll tell them.
But it's traditional to do so. Or is that so to do?
> "An apostrophe is used:
> when letters or numbers are referred to in plural form:

Hmm. /May/ be used, I reckon, not /is/ used.
;-)

It's my language just as much as theirs.
