hi pixygoth,
its general internet etiquette to not bother people about their spelling. And I fail to see how your post was "trying to give friendly advice" by saying that the poster had reduced credibility.
And Im not really sure what you mean by "if its ingnorance i cant let it past"?
In any case, let me give you a hand with your own post as I can see that you are interested in spelling, punctuation, and grammar.
-----------------------------------------------------------
you said, "just trying to make sure that someone less understanding of these things than I would not get the opportunity to actually disagree just on the grounds of spelling."
In this I would actually make it, "I am just trying to make sure that someone with less understanding of these things than me would not get the opportunity to disagree solely on the grounds of spelling."
Shall I continue?
