    Sure, but I think it's annoying when I have to spend more time "decoding" whatever a person said just for him to save 5 seconds when typing it.
    For a language to me as efficient as possible, I think the users should be as uniform as possible. It makes it easier and faster to read, and fewer misunderstanding occur.

    What I found funny about this thread, was the fact that people who said things such as "Yeah, I dislike bad grammar" acctully were using bad grammar in the first place.
    Capital i when you are talking about yourself.
    Capital when its about a person or a place.
    Its not that hard to forget, you just spent, like, 11 years in mandatory education, of which 9 years of that you will have taken the subject of english, or your home language.

    Does it annoy you when people post in forums using poor grammer? [sic]
    In my experience I've found spelling errors to be more annoying than grammar. With grammar errors you can still figure out what the heck the person's trying to say due to context.

    eg: I talking good english you

    With multypal spelin arrors it becoms harder and harder to maek cens of the sentance.

    It annoys me when people don't use periods so that their entire post it like one long sentance.

    Other than that, it only bothers me if I can't understand what people are saying.

    If you think bad grammar is wrong in English, you haven't read someone with bad grammar in Spanish.

    And I don't pay attention to people who type like that.

    It somewhat annoys me.

    But who am I to judge them? (No one laughs at my joke)

    Anyway, I don't mind when its casual places... like General Chat, but if your debating, or in EoEo, you shouldn't speak n00banese, nothing kills someones argument more then making yourself look like demondude55 retarded.
