Ya Typin Ta Me ? November 30th 04 03:58 PM

NG Guidelines
 
12 ways for gooder newsgroup postings.
--------------------------------------

1. Allways uze a spel cheker.

2. Avoid cliches like the plague. They're old hat. You mark my words

3. Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.

4. Employ the vernacular.

5. It is wrong to ever split an infinitive.

6. Contractions aren't necessary, they're best avoided so don't use them.

7. Avoid alliteration. Always.

8. Foreign words and phrases are not apropos. They lack a certain 'je ne
sais quoi'

9. Comparisons are as bad as cliches.

10. Make it a rule to never generalise.

11. Try to be more or less specific about everything.

12. Exaggeration is millions of times worse than understatement.
