I admit was critic of people writing in "scots" as it came across as being disrespectful to the way that we speak and I did criticise Robertson in particular, the reason being that I hate it when people mimic how we speak, however I understand that Robertson Resides in Scotland and is Sincere in his belief that its a language all of its own and its quite commen to see the language written that way in his part of Scotland. my own feelings are that its very Regional how most people post in a kind of South west/Glasgow way of speaking, across the country words and accents vary so much thast not including the island folk, so to call it "Scots" is Nae rerally accurate, how Robertson posts is a fairly accurate phonetic representation of a southern Scots accent, however Its like music it sounds better than it looks written down
