NICE Mirror. No specifics, but can you tell what general area? Talking to the Idaho Carpers, they too catch a lot of Mirror.

With LATTER being a real word and not a MISS spelled word, would "Spell Check" really help? Now if there were a definition check, WOHOO.

One of the problems with auto-fill and spell check is that the wrong word gets in now and then. Personally I don't think it matters that much. I'm not perfect yet either.

BTW the contraction for "it is" is spelled it's. You also left out the period. [shocked] Does it matter that much? No. I'm not on here to grade anyone's papers. [laugh] [laugh]

Congratulations on a great day of carping!

Good planning on taking the ladder to improve the sight fishing. I have seen a ladder used by a group that was bow hunting carp. They were pretty successful too.

Calling someone out for a spelling mistake is a TROLL technique people use on allot internet forums.

In [url "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_slang"]Internet slang[/url], a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[url "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_%28Internet%29#cite_note-4"][4][/url] [url "http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/extraneous#Adjective"]extraneous[/url], or [url "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-topic"]off-topic[/url] messages in an online community, such as a forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an [url "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotion"]emotional[/url] response[url "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_%28Internet%29#cite_note-PCMAG_def-5"][5][/url] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

Hey, the ONLY reason I'm on here is to be a grammar cop.

(That's not true, but that's what one poster said of me.)

BFT is quite moderate when compared to some of these Internet forums. Im a MOD on some gaming/networking forums and the rules there are... there are no rules. LOL

You mean you also fish? I hadn't noticed from your posts and always wondered[laugh].

Pineview is were I do allot of my carping its full of mirror carp and right now it's perfect carp are in close and feeding heavily. I wish the bird refuge would flood again because you get into allot of big common's out there.

Seriously? Your correcting my punctuation? I can see someone being corrected for an incorrectly used word which has completely different meaning but punctuation is just stupid. If your Confused by a left out contraction punctuation then I feel sorry for you. And yes I left the punctuation out on purpose because I'm lazy on my iPhone I don't want to push the one extra button to get to the punctuations.

Give a shout if you hit the city of salt.....[Wink]

My point is... it is nit picking. Why correct someone else? You did the same thing. You used the wrong word. It isn't just punctuation.

Its and it's have two completely different meanings.

I could have said your sentence structure was lacking too.

Troll somewhere else.

All this BS is why I never post on this website its only good for killing time and apparently "trolling" since trying to help someone is trolling. Nit picky is correcting my punctuation I don't care what you say.

Your probably just jealous because I catch more fish, bigger fish, I'm better looking, make more money than you, and I know how to troll better than you. [cool]
[signature]
Yep! You're right. [laugh] [laugh] I AM jealous of some of your beautiful browns that you have caught.

I had no intention to offend you. Only to point out that we all knew he meant laDDer. Just as we know that you probably meant it's instead of its, and you're instead of your.

It is distracting to the OP's message to constantly correct someone's use of a word or punctuation. It is a courtesy thing if nothing else. Just letting you know.[Wink]

Tell us how you really feel.

Punctuation matters.

A professor wrote the words, “Woman without her man is nothing” on the blackboard and directed his students to punctuate it correctly.

The men wrote: “Woman, without her man, is nothing.”

The women wrote: “Woman: Without her, man is nothing.”

(Oh, and I shamefully admit that I do fish. Not as much as I want to, and more than my wife wants me to. But I seldom brag about it. Long past that.)
