Dear Zailda,
Not sharing your sense of humour is one thing but not having a sense of humour is another which sounds bad however I do totally agree with you about the worksheet descriptions.
Have a very Happy New Year Dear Teachers.

It �s not that Zailda. It �s so easy to make fun of sb..... I agree with Natalia (Sonn), I think she got the point.
Sorry, i did not want to be rude, really.

I �m not making fun at somebody in particular. Did I mention anyone? I understand that not everyone share the same sense of humor I have, but is there any particular rule on posting something on the forum which I have missed?

I mean, if I have something to say, don �t I have the right to choose the approach? If everyone here understands English, what �s the problem if I post  lyrics, a poem, a quotation, pieces of advice (which I �ve already posted many times)?

Can I - please - choose the way I want to write?

Julieta, I don �t know why, but I have the strange feeling the discussion is not about my thread. Have you ever gotten this feeling as well?

I �m curious...

Sonn, that piece of advice you refer to has been given time and time again. Guess it has not worked.

Manoski, you �re right. Today I have reported several wss because they were copies or non-esl and - guess what? - the descriptions are pretty much the same as these...

Sometimes I ask myself if there �s a relationship between bad descriptions and breaking the rules. After all, when you upload a ws, if you leave the description empty you �re not able to finish the uploading. For me it suggests the description is an important step and since I �m not allowed to upload without one, I provide one. But people who write nonsense are - in a certain way - defying this rule (having a description).

And there are particular cases when a detailed descrition could have helped moderators to have a better - and fair - idea on what to do.

But my message was sent, if you think it �s not worthy of consideration, just do what you think is better.

I want to ask again: is there a rule against expressing what goes on your mind? I know we have moderators, do we have censors as well?

Dear Zailda,

that �s brilliant:o)  I totally agree with you. Just imagine a teacher giving his/her students a ws and saying: "gahfkahgjkafjkafjga" Wacko

I also noticed most of the contributions with above described descriptions are either stolen, or copied or nonsense (and therefore useless).

Take care, MichaelaThumbs Up

Specially in the reported contributions, but well, as we say in Mexico "no somos monedita de oro para caerle bien a todos"
