It's not the 140 character limit, it's the laziness, and the idea that having an education, being intelligent, is not "cool". Or, for a technically inclined person, the idea that one does not need to know English well, because it's somehow... I don't know. Gay, I suspect would be the favorite term for it from a high school student.

He doesn't know about time zones. I suspect elementary school.

Skipsneeky2;

You've defined the problem.

"in every forum it gets tiring hearing others just point out every time i dont make a period...."
''i only put this thread out cause i kept getting harrased in the forums."

You've been told how to solve it.

"use some f****** sentences "
"lack of punctuation makes posts harder to understand"
"...to convey your message efficiently.. grammar is a basic necessity. Grammar makes it easier to understand.. the writer should make it easier for the reader."
"I do find walls of text highly irritating though. It's not hard to hit enter once in a while and break up a post."
"how the hell are we supposed to know what you're asking if you just jumble up a wall of text with poor punctuation?"
"long run-on-sentences make your posts unnecessarily difficult to read and that is just irritating."

You ASKED the grammar nazis to come in and take a poke at you and, when they did, and even offered solutions along with the pokes, you started in with profane name-calling.

But, as long as you make posts that read like this "why have a op read our cockfight the private messaging thing would be nice for me to use,its sitting at unread 0 but nope right in the open forums the grammar nazis go" you're going to have a problem.

You have the power to change your posting style - use it.

Actually friend,i was a golden honor roll student all the way till i hit high school.

Mainstreamed out of "special" school? Didn't you ever wonder why everyone in your previous classes was on the "golden honor roll"? :p

tomorrow is day two on the corolla starter man what a pain in the ass its been im exhausted:p

Dude, they didn't give you any tools for a reason. That's not even a starter you're holding, it's a door stop with a propeller crudely glued on. :biggrin:
