    Try it like this:

    Hi there. Well, I am fairy computer illiterate to start with and it's the way we write here and education is not the guideline of all things. Surely a man of your ability can read what I am saying. Who cares about being exact in grammar? I live remote with no one to teach me to use a keyboard that works the way it wants. So I would love some grace from better computer people than me. But thanks. At least your reply was meat well, I know that. Thank you, sir.

    It has nothing to do with computer skills or a keyboard. It has to do with basic writing. Sentences, capital letters for the first word and for the use of "I" meaning myself. If you can type "....", you surely can type a period to end the sentence and then use the space bar before you type the next sentence. Trust me - it helps people to understand what you are saying.

    A period is a punctuation mark we use at the end of most sentences. See that dot at the end of that sentence? At the end of each sentence, we will use a "." (period), "?" (question mark) or "!" exclamation point, depending on the particular sentence style that it is finishing. You use 4 periods to end a sentence (when you would take a breath) - just use a period and then a space before the next sentence as I have used here (although I prefer two spaces between sentences although that is wrong for today's rules).

    I didn't know that. We always had to use two spaces between sentences.

    Yep - The new rule is just one space. I just can't do it. Catholic school typing class was where I learned to type and those nuns were scary!!

    Seems the double space was a concession because of monospaced type.

    Reported. You can't just go around telling people on the board that they are living in unbelief and deceived by Satan.
