Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you just can't cross the communications barrier.

This is what I got from trying to advise someone that they had a misspelling on their OP.



You really have communication issues that are beyond just language.

You need to be open to positive constructive criticism.

If this it the best you can do, You are not worth my time and effort.

Stay ignorant, them.

Good bye.

I won't correct the OP out of respect.

I want everyone to see the mistake I made in the post and know that I have no problem with being wrong, and being shown when I am wrong.
