Grammar Nazism

Using the wrong "their" or "your" is pretty terrible, imo.Meinhard1

Especially when they use "you're" istead of "your".

Maybe the person isn't concerned with spelling and grammar.

Maybe the person never passed middle school English. At least that's what it seems like when they make an obvious error. It's one thing to be talking to a friend, and another to try to prove a point. Either way, I always try to spell things properly because it makes it easier to read and it's a good habit. When you make errors it not only makes you look lazy, but it also makes what you're saying harder to understand. Out of curiosity, how old are you PrototypeTheKid?

What about people who intentionally make grammar mistakes as nazi-bait? What do you think about what their doing?

Whiteknight has a a habit of blowing small errors out of proportion dave123321

I do not do so. I just point out that what they are trying to say makes no sense. One will be taken seriously when one uses proper spelling, grammar and punctuation.

Also, this is the third such topic in as many days. Will there be more in the coming days?

[QUOTE="gamertylers"] I was expecting you to be younger. Does it bother you at all if someone shortens words, such as "ur" instead of "your"? On an old cell phone I suppose it's understandable, but anything else it just seems lazy. If it takes you that much longer to type it out, then you're just a bad typist.dave123321

To be fair, when you put death and international conflicts into the talk, nothing mundane is a problem. I still think the way you write depends on what you're writing - if it's an article or an essay, it's alright to expect perfect cohesion and grammar - but if you're talking about video games,

as long as we can understand what you're trying to say, all is game.

yeah that whole more funnier thing in your original post is a real turnoff. Also you need an s on posts in the first sentence, it should be plural.

In regards to informal writing, I only criticize grammar usage that is so bad that it renders the writer's work unintelligible, unclear, or significantly difficult to read in some other way.

I don't know, when I go to a thread and see repeated and blatant spelling errors I start to question things.

It's all good.

I don't really care about the errors. I skim posts for the most part.

I'm guessing the TC is dismissive of those who speak ebonics.

No, it's UNFORGIVABLE.

Simply unforgivAble.

English is already a messed up and horrible language as it is, so I don't see a point about getting upset over it.
