Just a friendly reminder that "Mini-Moderating" isn't required on this forum.
We have a staff (we're volunteers) of Moderators to keep the forum tidy and enjoyable, and we're happy to make corrections and to do a "nudge" when necessary, such as right now.
So, if you see some spelling, grammar, style issues etc that irks you, save the comment for your own personal Facebook page and vent there, and let it pass here. Like watching a lotus flower gently floating downstream, just make a mental note of it and then let it go. (I got that from a therapy session, it works)
Mini-Moderating, which is a term for when others step-in and try to moderate, actually causes us Moderators some extra work and grief. I don't have time for for that extra work and grief, and neither do the rest of the Moderators.
Again, save those compulsive corrective responses for your own personal social media, where your friends will appreciate their spelling mistakes being pointed out.
I recognize that many of us are obsessive-compulsive about correctness, to some degree, and that many of us have a narrow view of things being correct. I can be that way at times, when I don't remember to keep myself balanced. So just remember the lotus flower in the stream, and watch it float by. Let it pass...
That is all.
