    Default REMINDER: use of language

    Everyone--- this is just a quick reminder to use proper language as much as possible. Abbreviation use, such as "u" instead of "you," is generally not acceptable. This is an international forum and not everyone may understand, although you may consider it universal. It's best to spell out as much as possible. Also, please limit the use of foul language. Some may be offended by the use of such words. Thank you all.

    Please also avoid links to webshops!
    We dislike advertising on the forum, although most people just want to help.
    You can discuss prices and webshops over personal messages.

    I agree at all. Some of guys use slangs too along with abbreviations. This is not much sensible and decent. I request all of members of this forum to avoid this. People from whole over the world visit this forum. When they see such stuff, they get confused. Kindly, avoid it.

    Nelly,

    As knowing Retardo from this forum and the shrimp community I caught your humor instantly and caught an immediate chuckle.
