This type of mistakes does not make anyone a shitposter, there is a difference between the two, and it's true that anyone can make mistakes when trying to reply to topics or creating their topics on the forum, there are few spell checker software for PC and android, you can download and start using to make things more faster for you.

I don't think anyone thinks someone can be considered a spammer just because they make grammatical mistakes or don't review before posting. Especially since the forum enables review and correction even after publication.
There is nothing I can recommend to any user here if the content of his publications is useful because it is not possible to anticipate the reasons that make him make mistakes while writing or prevent him from review and correct all potential mistakes.
As you know, your actions on the forum cannot be escaped because someone has developed algorithms that record all posts before they are modified, and the forum system always records the date of the last update on any post.

Mistake is inevitable, if there is no mistake there is no correction, that is, people make mistake and through the mistake, corrections are made. Most users submit their post without cross checking the write up. So in many times omissions occurred and some ungrammatical statement occurred and English speaking users see them as trash, shit post without correction. It is better you reread you work before posting to avoid mistake. Be a good poster. Avoid mistake. But mistake is inevitable. It most come but not always.

It's immediately obvious that you've done a good job of making your post presentable, and that's great.

You are right and sometimes we can see posts that are some kind of strange hodgepodge of letters (lack of banal punctuation marks and inappropriate spaces because of which the text merges into a continuous mess), which is not only impossible to read, but also almost impossible to understand. Of course, personally, I immediately skip this and switch to other topics.

You can add one more item:
- If even after the publication you saw some kind of mistake, then this is easily corrected by pressing the "edit" button (on the right, in the top corner of your post between "quote" and "delete") and adjusting the text.

OP your point is well understandable, because most people always rushed to make a post without editing or preview which is very wrong, making a post that conveys no message or information is a total waste, I know that mistakes are inevitable but editing a message before posting allows you to eradicate all mistakes as such making you to have a very well written and understandable content.

Just like a post I read, I almost had a headache reading it because there was so many errors and mistakes on that post, not that the person was not good in writing but all his interest was just to post the message and forgot to edit or crosscheck.

I have to make edits all the time because I am not a very careful poster. Sometimes I forget to add something or I notice a grammatical mistake an hour or two after posting. But that is completely fine. There is no harm in editing your post nor is there any harm in making mistakes.

All posts are being archived anyway. So you cannot hide previous edits.

Although if people were to follow OPs advice of making clean and neat posts, then reading through text on Bitcointalk would be so much easier and more fun. But that's hard to achieve as some people on this thread already mentioned; that not everyone is an native english writer and cannot be expected never to make a mistake. Grin

Ideally, of course, it's best if your post is perfect in both form and substance. But if you can't have the two, then I guess the latter is much more important than the former. It's probably enough that the point is made and understood. Certain aspects like grammar are secondary. As a non-native speaker of the English language myself, I can't help but commit grammatical, punctuation, and other errors every now and then.

But we should all be striving to be better posters nonetheless, both in form and in substance.

On this forum it's always about what you are sharing, even if there are some mistake people will understand what you are trying to make, a shitposter is someone who just create posts or comments that have no meaning.

This mistake can be avoided if you always cross-check after creating your comments before posting them on the forum.

Yes, the title of your post appealed to me. That's the right OP, it must be used to post especially for beginners. Check and re-read whether it is appropriate for us to provide answers or responses and be constructive so as to avoid mistakes and be deleted by the moderator. and don't forget to prepare a follow-up answer if there are friends here who quote back the answers or responses that we have conveyed.

But information is the key to avoid mistakes, what we don't know we are prone to fall into mistakes concerning such, we could actually avoid these mistakes when we follow the due procedures to learning, where there's law and regulations guiding the community, anyone not familiar or being conscious of them will definitely fall a victim, if we are knowledgeable about the forum and bitcoin, we won't make much mistakes.

It's very important that we check and recheck out posts for proper corrections before posting them, i also understand the needs that some mistakes are inevitable because we might not be aware of them before happening, editing is very necessary especially when post is made and mistakes are spotted, quickly make an edit of the mistake and also follow the possible suggestions that comes after the post for corrections as suggested by other members.

Posting is not everything you can learn a lot even if you didn't dedicate all your time here. Just focus on what can interest you since wasting your time on focusing on your post can make you missed your opportunity on other things.

If you are aiming to join on signature campaign maybe there's something contribute with good post but remember that you can only earn a few bucks so better focus on informations you gather rather than draining your energy on one place.

Post don't necessarily need to be 100% grammatically correct — as long as the thread is understandable, it's good enough. But if a certain user can't really make a thread that's at least mildly comprehensible, then there's a reason why we have Local sections.

This.

Also, if you're that concerned with your post, maybe try tools like Grammarly or other grammar checking tools most of them already have a spelling checker so you no need to worry. And if that's not enough, you can write/type your thoughts in your native tongue and then paste it to a translator and if you are confident enough about the translation, post it.

LoL 😂, do you think newbies really pay attention to this kind of advice again? Although it's vital and I have seen same advice from other high experienced members here, but the problem with newbies is that they believe that it's only when they creat their own topic that they would have more exposure to earn merit. If newbies take those repeated advice, then it will help them to learn very fast, because they definitely will come across good informative and educational thread and they can even ask their questions there to gain reply.

Creating thread is not the problem of newbie even though they still feel that can help them to get merit . You can create a thread and still go on making the mistake especially if you are not an English speaking person. There are mistakes that are pardonable and there are errors, these two are not the same. An English speaker can make mistakes of spelling likewise non English speaker so I don't think that is too heavy but what is important is for newbies to understand the rules and ways to make their post attractive. Don't quote wrongly and don't make your post too big and clustered because it discourages contribution on it. You can write simple English and it is fine to read through it.

I continue to recommend that all non-English users use Grammerly on their Google Translate, Grammerly is very useful for those from other countries who cannot speak English, wrong sentences will be corrected and repaired automatically so that no spell errors are created.

That is a good recommendation but do you think that can work out effectively? Because in my thought, that can delay writing. Using Google Transactor for writing will not make the writer to write fast, therefore instead it is better the person learn English in lesson or the person should study how people write things here then he should follow up gradually to learn things by himself than using Google Transactor. Using grammarly from the keyboard or keypad is also nice but that can also change your thoughts of writing. Because when are writing a particular point and grammarly will change the sentence to the way it wants and your thoughts, that is the way you wanted to write your story or reply would just changed. So there are sometimes, I used to delete everything and write it from my own way.

to make posts on boards and sections in English, I always use google translate, It cannot be denied that Google Translate often gives wrong sentences, I saw several times that non-English users made very messy English posts, I didn't like that either and reported it to the moderator.

Anyone who makes use of the preview button should be able to avoid such mistakes and typos in their write up. I usually preview my posts just to see how it looks before posting, this is especially useful when you made a post with tables or images, this additions can easily mess up a post if not done properly but with the preview option, you can easily notice them and make the corrections before posting.

Indeed, errors in grammar and spelling can alter the intended meaning of a sentence. Therefore, non-English speakers may find it beneficial to utilize tools such as Grammarly or similar applications to craft flawless posts. As a non-English speaker myself, I have primarily relied on Grammarly and ChatGPT to enhance my English proficiency. There is no shame in employing such tools to refine one's English skills.

Nobody is perfect in whatever he or she is doing,writing is something that you do by expressing yourself on a particular discussion. Sometimes, while you are writing,there can be a distraction from somewhere that will lead a mistake in your English grammar, but this doesn't mean that the information that you are passing is missing. As long as one can express himself to peoples understanding,it doesn't mean anything. Majority us forum users are not from English speaking country, so it is possible that little errors would be made. This is why it is good to preview your write up before posting it for editing.

I believe this is where I have been making mistake for the past few years that I have been in this forum. Most times I drop my comment on some post without reading through the lines over and over again to check if their were some errors or not. Some times it takes weeks or months before I do revisit those threads and notice the error which sometimes I try to correct most times I just let it go as the comment has already serve it's purpose. Few errors don't stop comment from fulfilling aim and passing the right message. but it's just good for us to try our best and avoid some noticable errors in every means possible, to make it easier for people who are reading our post's.

A reply can be labeled as trash or shit post when the content of it is not related to the topic discussed on the thread or the statement is hard to be understood. I believe most members here do not care whether the sentence is perfectly done or has some grammatical and spelling errors as long as they are on topic and contribute to the thread discussion.

And I agree that we should make a habit of previewing our replies before hitting the post to check and correct the possible mistakes on the post.

In my opinion, I think it's normal to make mistakes. The reason is that human beings don't operate like robots. As long as what the person has written can be easily understood and if they are making good points, then it will be found, although most of those mistakes are not always repeated in every user's post. Those kinds of common mistakes are not a reason to dismiss someone as a hitposter. Shit posting is when one is talking off-topic or off-point repeatedly without taking correction.

Even Robot makes mistakes when it is not well programmed. Native speakers of English also make mistakes so we should not blame one another for grammatical errors. For the forum the preview button is there to help your blunders. Op you need to have a thick skin for now until you have mastered the forum and also improve on yourself. There are lot of works to do at the beginning of the forum. Read more and learn more. Make comments more than posting and things will gradually be okay for you.
