What's the big deal with punctuation. As long as people can understand what he wrote I think he's fine. By the way, some of you aren't better writers either.:|![]()

anyways perhaps like dezign being reborn here, this is Wdauqnug reborn (or whatever ducknuts username was)....
I am all for abbreviation and stream of conscious posting on a forum...but when one becomes cryptic or with no regard at all for spelling, esp. on post where they are making claims to their great intelligence.
It's one thing to spell patience as patiance or patiense which are just typos and another to write patients.

okay so i don't post often and when i do id like to recieve other feedback or some other type of responses other then 'paragraphs? sentences? run on's etc! I KNOW my writing is a huge mess with run ons and no paragraphs or structure or whatever but hey give me a break i don't care if its pretty as long as its understood im not writing a paper here so everyone just back off, or else i might just quit posting all together so that i won't have to put up with any of the crap complainers that want to get their post counts up.

I don't know about other users on this forum, but I generally use proper spelling and grammar as a gauge of intelligence. If you can express your thought in a coherent paragraph, I am more likely to take your post seriously and/or respect your opinion. If a post is riddled with spelling and grammar errors, it probably isn't worth my time.

then dont read it, plain and simple. i try to spell words the best way i can if uncertain how to spell it. but people act like its not ok to make a mistake, hell you learn from your mistakes. ive learned how to spell words the right way after posting it the wrong way.
like i said, most people act like kids about spelling errors. im guessing most people assume if you cant spell everything correctly, then your a dumbass? how cute
