                So the morse code said "SORRY BUT I JUST DO NOT LIKE THIS THREAD AT ALL, PLEASED THAT THERE IS HUMOUR CREEPING IN."
                No I cannot do morse code but google is wonderful and I turned up this Morse Code Translator | Morse Code World
                I don't think you can do Chinese in morse code as Chinese like Japanese and some other South Asian languages are tonal.

                  Well translated Nigel:blue thumb:
                  If a member doesn't like a thread, they really do not need to view it. And you definitely do not need to tell the whole forum that you don't like it.

                    Well said Harry. G.C has a wide range of forums within it and i like the humour that each topic brings up.
                    Sometimes i see conversations on very rare or exotic plants which I can't add to, so i just read (and learn).

                        I'll just take this opportunity to apologize everyone. I know my grammar is kind of off sometimes. That's because I tend to write fast and not think as much as I probably should.
                        And my spelling SHOULD be nice, but autocorrect always tries to throw a wrench into it because it is mainly set to German.

                        As for the rest: I mostly use metric units, but occasionally if the thread is kind of mixed I will specify it.

                            No need to apologise. As said earlier, it's only official government type notices and advertisements that we moan about or make fun of.

                            Here on the forum it's the content we want and not the grammar and spelling - unless both are so atrocious that that we can't understand what they're saying.

                            I can only remember one member, a couple of years or so ago, having people complain about them, or ignore them, because what they said was too difficult to understand.
