    GRAMMAR. GRAMMAR. NOT GRAMMER. GRAMMAR.

    Both bad spelling and bad grammar, and just incorrect basic language knowledge piss me off. Especially when people don't accept when they're wrong. If I smurf up on something, I like someone to take me up on it so I don't make a pillock of myself like that again.

    So, grammAr.

    I can't get enough of it. Much lulz can be derived from it.

    Bad Grammar or Leet?

    People annoy me. It doesn't matter what they are doing, they annoy me. Bad grammar and speech patterns are not a big deal. It's the breathing that bothers me the most.

    I have no clue what a pillock is, but yeah, pretty much what Quin said.
    Boy am I an unfunny ass.

    It irritates me, but I read it anyway.

    If I read something in the Writer's Corner with sloppy grammar and spelling, it puts me off the piece completely.

    I really don't care. I just quote them in my post, if I feel like quoting. I try not to mess up my grammar, always editing if I feel like it.

    Only when it's really, really bad. I've yet to see anything really, really bad here.

    I actually find poor formatting to be worse. I can't stand reading ridiculously large blocks of text.

    Same as above.

    so what you're saying is that there are a lot of people on this forum who mind when others use poor grammar? that's a (while likely true) crazy assumption to make. use some less ambiguous language, if you please.

    I love being picky about grammar, but if I can understand what someone's trying to say I'm not going to be an asshole about calling them out, unless there's the chance for me to point out some irony or to make a situation humorous.
    Fine then I'll be less ambiguous. :/

    I try not to let bad grammar bother me, though it does sometimes.
    Bad spelling sometimes doesn't bother me but most of the time I feel like correcting the spelling. But I'm not a perfect speller, so I can't say much.

    I would rather everyone type properly. But I don't mind that much, only when it is completely illegible.
