i'm beginning to suspect that some posters are deliberately missing out letter counts for crossword questions just to annoy me or am i just a grumpy old git?

Very frustrating if you haven't got the puzzle, agreed.
you're just all agog. :o)
It is irritating but so many on here have done the crossword already, recognise the clue and slap in an answer within 15 seconds. I suppose an answer is what the poster wants rather than fun for those who want to try and solve.

You're paranoid and need to get over yourself you grumpy old git.

while i'm on the subject what about ...
no crossword title supplied
umpteen questions in one block without line ends
dashes instead of question marks
repeat posts
ok ... i'm a grumpy old git

I sometimes wonder why certain people do crosswords. There is a certain prolific poster who will post up to six clues at a time, gives the letter count but not a single interlocking letter. Always closes with 'Sorry about the lack of letters. TIA'. Perhaps a colouring book would be more appropriate.
Well they get their answers anyway. Simples :-)
While some of us are being grumpy I'm sometimes amazed at the ease of some clues they can't do themselves.
I don't think the origin of the crossword matters much - it's the same clue whether it's from Glasgow Herald or Colchester Courier.

Letter counts and any placed along with full clue is just fine.
not having a good Sunday - you offer to help selflessly
half clues, wrong clues, bad clues

how can you face Monday ?
crossword clue 6 letters "grumpy ol git! t??b?t
Is it a fish?
Going back to the OP, I suspect both.
Lol close mamya xx
