Posters should be corrected when they make mistakes 'against the rules of the net'
    (unwritten rules but rules set on the Internet to govern itself)
Misspelling of words and Grammar errors are NOT 'against the rules'.  A sig over 4 
lines IS 'against the rules'.  Folks will do and say things on the Internet (where 
they can 'hide' behind a computer monitor and not be seen) that they would never say 
to a person face-to-face.  We should conduct ourselves and answer post in the same 
manner as if we were standing face-to-face with these people.  'Most of us' would 
never correct a persons grammatical errors when talking to them in person.
