Forum etiquette.

I think forum etiquette is no more than normal good manners. I would not correct someone's grammar if I were speaking to them in person, and I don't correct any member's grammar, spelling or punctuation on forums.
Not easy for a pedantic former English teacher!

I can ignore personal insults (I think they say more about the poster than about me) but I think they are usually considered to be in breach of forum etiquette.

imjingl Well done. I think that it is story telling at it's best. If I could choose just two books as being captivating, it would be 'The Little Grey Men' and 'Down the Bright Stream' sunshine

Hey what's going on? I entered this thread hoping for a bit of adrenalin-raising controversy only to find we are talking about children's books.

Only joking grin

Or am I?
