The point of my comment wasn't about what you might or might not have seen, it was about what a reasonable person would take from someone's post, and whether or not the point of your post was really about needed clarification or just to be pedantic.
It could also have been 30 easy steps or 30 minutes a day.

Eh em. I think you'll find we're pretty easy going over on this little subforum. Writers (had better) quickly learn to accept comments regarding the clarity of their writing. If you spend too long getting upset over every mistake (and subsequent correction) you will never get anything done. Nothing to get hot under the collar about.

I'm shocked that anyone would post to MR without having their posts checked by a professional editor first!

But at least we remain self-published. Imagine how long these conversations would take if we had to wait for a BPH to release the posts ... and there'd be a spate in December ready for the Christmas rush.

But surely the intellectual content of my posts is so valuable that most readers will happily overlook a few edittting errors!
