Can you tell someones age group from the way they Post

So, based on the fact that the majority of my posts are punctuated, have more technical words, and are generally spelled correctly, how old does that make me?

Don't know about age but you can tell a lot of the ex-service lads from their posts from the language used.

Come to think of it, I knew that from a recent post of yours.

 

Always have been a rubbish detective!

Thats a fair one, it does take a little bit of adjusting from 12 or so years in an environment were the vocal content contains the F word followed by the C word forms the standard vocabulary with every third word being a none rude word

Fantastic! I have 7 stages left!

Working from which end?

 

For some, dyslexia is a real problem, for some, standard English may not be their first or even their second language. So giving some leeway to those who may not be up to 'your' standard, could be viewed as a good thing. I've known people for whom inter-personal communication was a real bind. But watching them work or figure out a problem, has been an education and in a few cases a privilege too.

I was actually referring to the slang used rather than the swearing. I just took the swearing as a given in this industry.

I often naturally make an assumption yes, but upon meeting people I've been very wrong on many occasions!
