@Hydra45
However if somebody does not speak/write English as their primary language then they can't be expected to speak/write in perfect English.

Quoting yourself was irrelevant at that point, I looked up Ad hominem and it means saying another person's point is irrelevant due to the character of the person or the job of the person, for example, if a Priest says "Abortion is wrong" and gives reasons then another person replies with "You're a priest so you have to say that" so it was irrelevant the first time you wrote it as well. If I’d said “You attack people for using poor grammar and spelling so you are wrong for telling people to stop attacking George Bush for pronouncing things wrong� then your post would have had relevance, but I didn’t I agreed with you and just added a side note that you so a similar thing.
Aircraftkiller | That's irrelevant to this thread.
Common fallacies of logic and rhetoric:
Ad hominem - attacking the arguer and not the argument.
