A tip with group posting, furs. Most of us know
nothing about each other except what we see on this
group. Therefore it pays to present a 'face' that
others will like and respect.
People who don't (as opposed to can't) spell (English
being a second language makes it hard and typos
happen) or try to be 'kewl' end up coming across as
juvenile and annoying, as well as being hard to read.
It's just so hard to take someone seriously who sends
a vague, poorly spelt post.

We aren't a WaReZ group, so let's attempt to use
correct spelling, punctuation and if you really want
to push it, grammar... The occasional word for
emphasis on something is fine, but not for all your
posts.
Mind your tone too! It is very easy to write
something and have it interpretted the wrong way when
everyone reads it. Emoticons help :-) but are not
really a substitute for just being careful with what
you write.
I know I preach (as probably did your parents) if
you've nothing nice to say, keep your muzzle shut, but
I'm figuring if I give furs some direction now, it
won't develop into a major irritation later.
People like to hear feedback on their work. Obviously
if you've NOTHING nice to say, then don't. But if you
like something, particularly a certain element of the
work, point this out. This ensures the artist feels
encouraged to produce more and keeps in the features
that you like from the current work. Good for us all
on both accounts! Even if the work has been up a
while. The idea of this forum is for discussion of
SAMA related material, so if it is posted here,
providing it is on topic, feel free to comment.
Enough of my ranting, but I felt it needed to be
said...
Scrapper, Black Dragon, hoping to see a minimum
standard of written language since we are on an adult group!
