First, use punctuation, makes your post easier to read and people will tend to answer posts that are written normally.

Second, what exactly happens when you try to boot in "normal" Windows? Also what model is it? Do you have the specifications?

It isn't that hard to work out what they are trying to say.

What happens when you try to start your computer normally? Can you think of anything you might have installed before this begun?

Alright then i will always write like this from now on i'm sure you'll read as fast as if it was written correctly people care about how posts are written sometimes when i read a badly punctuated post my brain says "skip" and it works for most people never said it was unreadable but using punctuation makes it more appealing especially when asking for help i could go on for a whole paragraph but i hope you got the point

Call me an idiot...
Surely the guy wants help, not for you to belittle his English skills. Maybe we should stick to that rather than demanding a set of English GCSEs before we can help :p. Some people struggle with grammar and stuff. Maybe we should be a bit considerate for the person, otherwise they will just get the wrong idea about this website, go elsewhere, and you lose traffic and users.

Please don't "moderate" the staff. Punctuation really does help when asking for help. I do agree that the members post wasn't that bad but we have seen some members post many lines of text with no punctuation and I've even bypassed it because I didn't want to read the mess. If a member wants help then they need to write with punctuation to help us give them correct information back.
