Anyone comparing individuals who want language to be comprehensible to the most murderous regime in human history deserves to be punched in the face. That is all I have to say on the matter.

I'm not terribly abusive when it comes to grammar.
I feel that more often than not it's purely a mistake and not their fault.
As long as it's legible, I don't really care.
Hell, we all make a mistake from time to time.
I've made it a habit to spellcheck every Furburt comment since he seems to write so well, but I've only caught small mistakes at best.
(I'm sure I've made some errors in this post as well, if you're willing to check)
Also, to 'Mr Montmorency': I think it was more of an artistic choice. It seems to flow better.

I was until I encountered one of those situations.
You know what I'm talking about.
"Ha-HA! I spelled that wrong on purpose so I could prove how stupid you are by acting like an idiot so you would call me an idiot! Haha! Idiot!"
Now I just don't bother. I never got the paradox logic crumple zones installed.
As far as people disregarding posts due to grammatical/typographical errors, if you aren't willing to put forth the effort to express yourself in a clean and efficient manner, y shud ne1 pay ne attn???

I would say I am. I'm even at the point where bad grammar can make a person unattractive. To me, it's a sign of intellect.
Yes, but in real life. I constantly correct people who use can instead of may. yeah sure you can use the bathroom, what the hell is stopping you?
Okay bro, but shouldn't it be 15 or 1s or i5 instead of es if you're going to use l33t? Oh god I just died a little typing that.Sacman said:
