How about some proofreading

From a recent review: "She has nice curves snd used a dcarf to rund out. Ionly been once."

It's perfectly acceptable to read what you wrote and correct errors before submitting your review. It's not cheating at all.

Thank you, ArtCollege! When I've brought this up before, the fucking millennials say that proofreading is for old farts like me. They're too busy scoring pussy to bother with things like spelling and punctuation.

Some reviewers are so illiterate that they don't know what proofreading is.

What I do is to write my reviews in MS Word, then proofread and then cut and paste into the review box.

I make a lot of typos and I would fix them, like I do on FB, if we HAD A FUCKING EDIT OPTION, but apparently TUSCL chat is still mired in the 20th Century when it comes to lack of technology. As for asinine posts....well that's par for the course from a bunch of old men who's hobby is paying for sex with women 20-40+ younger than they.

You write what you think is correct. Grammar Nazis invented dyslexia to play ass-scrabble in Art Colleges. PM the reviewer he will willingly paint your ass red in cubist art. Everybody on this forum has a PhD in Fine Arts, go drill a hole in your sketchbook boy.

PM founder for a edit /approve feature. Anyone can edit but the author can choose to approve it. Then spend your time shitting at McD proofreading and editing reviews and pretty formatting it like they taught you in college.

In this case good chance he was using a smartphone where it's easy to press the wrong key; e.g. "dcarf", the 'd' is next to the 's' on the keyboard and easy to press the wrong key - no big deal - go score some pussy and stop being old farts :)

If it's just one or two sentences like that, I would be humored. But because of my love of reading/writing and as a former English major, I can only handle so much before ignoring the whole review and reading the next.

This "review" (of Riverside Corral in Portland: https://www.tuscl.net/rev.php?M=A&RID=28…) is actually even worse than the snippet posted by the OP. Here's the entire "review":

Wednesday Evening visit, 1-5 dancers

November 18, 2016 • Hello All,
This week Wednesday I went here. It was about 9;pm. Like many others, I missed the turn off and went into thr highway. The club is just off to the right side. the club setting is always ddimioar .
There 3 dancers, the young one was s little chunky. While the tall one was favored. However if a older girl shie was in a nice. So she more free . She has nice curves snd used a dcarf to rund out. Ionly been once.

So thus place definitely hit or miss . Goof off
Up

The question burning in my mind is: Is the club setting really *always* ddimioar? In my extensive experience, the club setting often isn't ddimioar at all!

I use an old-fashioned desktop computer for my TUSCL needs. I usually compose lengthy posts (not this one), off line. I spell check it and proof reading it before I copy and paste it to TUSCL. Yeah, I'm another old phart who appreciates correct spelling and good grammar.

Dayyum MrDeuce are you an English professor or something I didn't know we would be graded on our posts I would have asked juice for some tutoring. ...…; )

No, 25, I'm a different kind of professor (as you already know). On a discussion board like this, you are known only for what you post -- so why would anyone post something atrociously or intentionally misspelled? I'll excuse inside jokes (e.g. "It was rong for him to be band"). While I'm at it, I sincerely don't know how one can get past elementary school without knowing such distinctions as:
your / you're
their / they're / there
its / it's
to / too / two

To be charitable, a disproportionate number of TUSCLers have Down syndrome and/or have been dropped repeatedly on "they're" heads (or is it "there"?).

Any mistakes on my posts are the fault of my Smartphone--with very few exceptions. Specifically, I've noticed that the Android spell checkers, integrated dictionaries, synonyms, and forced " suggestions " are far more sophisticated than only a year or two ago. Sometimes I read and re-read a sentence 2-3 times, and still have to go back and correct it using the edit button.

Here's an example from my sentence above : I typed in the word " edit ", and it came out on my screen as " surf ". That's the Android Swype feature making those decisions for me.

Maddening, I tell you!
