Yes, using good spelling and grammar is incredibly important.

YES, IT IZ.

LOL!

Well text speak is always unnecessary – I refuse to use it even in texts. I’ve even asked people to send me messages again “in English”.

There's no requirement for perfection in the spelling and grammar department, just some kind of evidence of appropriate effort. It is important, it affects everyone who reads the forums.

They let me off on those rules because i will beat them up.

As I say, I don't have a problem with it, except for text speech because that is just lazy. All I'm saying is I understand why people do get irritated by it!

People have been great to me as a n00b too

I think Chris maybe expects us to love absolutley everything 100% of the time, but it's also true that the biggest fans of things are also the harshest critics. Also, you tend to only remember the bad things.

But Chris - I still love it every morning

You joined in 2003.

How the hell you are a 'n00b' is beyond me.

You are though.

And what about the show?

I joined, then forgot about it

Just heard the link about Chris Moyles.net

Of course that's why we all joined, the show is great. But giving criticism where it's due is important.
