"I also don't get why people can't spellcheck, use correct capitalisation and punctuation."
 
 Prae : Are you sure that the Gathering is the right place for you? All you ever do is moan and complain, thats all you ve ever done. Hasn't it dawned on you that no gives a sh!t about your complaints and things just aint gonna change, no matter how much you whinge . This a a mailing list about Killing Joke and not an Oscar Wilde literary appreciation society. 
  People on this list don't write in full correct sentences and use the correct punctuation because its beyond their capabilities . I dont even know where apostrophes are supposed to go, i just chuck aposrophe's in wherever I feel like it.
  You may come from a quaint little village in Ireland where the postman smiles at you and bids you a pleasant day and the air is pleasant to breathe ,  but most of us live in the real World
