Does my confusion lay in sematics????


Are you saying that the person is writing their post the way that they would say it in that moment in time? Because the example seems to imply that the writer was maybe less than pleased.

Like I would write.... "What do you mean???????" if I were totally confused about a post?

My take on the "write like you speak" comment was that you meant if a person uses colloqialisms (sp), then they write with them, too. Is this not what you're saying?

PS. Boo, you're losing me on the visual aids... SAY IT PLAIN, PLEASE.
