Re: Stop with the "RTFM" stuff

Same can be said about posters with very poor spelling, grammar and heavy leet usage. A PM reminding them that their posts reflect on their team can guide them to better posting.

Amen brother. I'm old school with no text messaging ability. I'm tired of seeing single letters being used for real words (ie r, u, c etc). This is ok for texting but PLEASE don't use it here.
If I see to many misspelt words or really bad grammer I will stop reading the post.
What you could do, if you have a long post to make, is use Word to compile your ideas and than paste it here after you spell check it. Or you could use a dictionary like I do.
As for the RTFM, some posters are trying to lawyer the rules (aka read between the lines). This is a bad practice that could get you into trouble at a regional during inspection or competition.
