Punctuation is your friend.

Lately, and maybe its me, I have had a lot of trouble reading some posts. Mostly, it is because there is no punctuation. All the sentences run together and its hard to tell where one ends and another begins.

I doubt most of the offenders will read this; but can a brutha get a period, comma, or exclamation point once in a while?

I also hate the "smart"phone spell checkers, and the fact no one ever looks to see if the text makes any sense......

I will have to agree with that, but the best way to solve that issue is to read your own post a couple of times before you hit reply.

True, everyone is bound to make a mistake sooner or later, and that is not the problem, but some don't even try in the first place!!!!

Ummm. I see a period and an explanation mark in your post. This is supposed to be about no punctuation.

But I will agree it's hard to type like that.
