    Grammar

    I was wondering how many people think grammar is actually important on a forum? I notice many people use it correctly and many people don't. I personally don't have a problem with people not using it on a forum, but I myself actually like trying to be correct. Sounds a bit sad I guess, but ever since I messed up in class and left school I now love English. My skills are no where near a writers sadly, anyway enough of my crap. Who thinks grammar is important here? Who loves it, and who hates it?

    Grammar

    For myself, I have to use grammer. I use what I'm taught.

    On a forum though, I don't it is that important. I mean, if you want people to understand what you're saying, then it is wise to write as clearly as you can.

    But for spelling errors, I don't care. As long as I know what they're trying to spell and say, then I bypass it.

    It's the ones who don't use a period that annoys me. Like, it's one button. Quit being so lazy and use it at the end of a sentence.

    Other than that, i could care less how people write.

    I prefer to write properly because it shows that I do have braincells in my head.

    It's also a good habit to get into. You go for job interviews later on in life, or you have to write and important letter to someone, you want to come off as bright. Not having spelling mistakes and bad grammer. Then you look well, stupid.

    Kind of on here too. You can't spell or type out a sentence, you're in a heap of trouble for the future, plus you don't come off as looking too intelligent either.

    Grammar

    It annoys the crap out of me. I don't mind errors, considering I don't check most of my posts. But at least make an attempt at writing correctly. I don't read some posts because they are to hard to understand.

    Grammar

    I know my Spanish grammar much much better than my English grammar. In fact I spelled it "grammer " both times I typed it, thankfully firefox has that built in spell checker.

    Grammar

    Is that a spin off from the rep you recieved from me? If so, you have probably guessed I try to be prim and proper. It gets on my nerves a lot when peole use extreme text speak in their posts, I mean it really wouldn't hurt to think about the readers. I am not bothered about the genuine misspellings, but to see people spell the same word out differently twice in the same post, makes me despair, come on people, make a little bit of effort and save our heads!

    Yeah that's how I see it, why waste a useful talent? I've always been pretty cautious with mistakes, although on games I just want to get the messege through.

    Btw anyone think these new emotes are a little too big & excessive?
