Author Topic: I'm so sick of some peoples' grammar  (Read 11271 times)

I'm sure it pisses me off way more than other people, but I'm starting to get really frustrated with all the people that type like cavemen. It's so hard to read stuffty posts, and I almost never want to help anyone that does this.
SuperFlaminninja (though he's not nearly as bad), Daniel S. (with space), master king deaddude, Clockwick, muketf, Anybody, and a few others are the primary culprits, and it's REALLY getting on my nerves that nobody can type like civilized people. It's not that hard, and I really can't stand it anymore. I understand that it's just text, and I'm sure you're all going to tell me to calm my tits, but again, it's really, really pissing me off. It's definitely possible to put just a little bit of effort into your posts to make people like you a lot more.


i have no issue reading peoples posts. this is a forum where we chat in near real time to each other. its not very important how much punctuation you use. we arent writing long essays to each other here.

it only ever bugs me when people go so far off into antigrammatical space that i just can't understand them anymore

like usually the way people type (for instance, largely without caps) is supposed to reflect how you're supposed to read them, as a stand-in for tone of voice

for instance i put entire gaps instead of periods because otherwise i would read my posts like one long run-on thought, instead of a thought, then another thought

blockland forums = english class
posting replies = writing formal essays

This kind of writing is fine, and it doesn't bother me. It's writing like nuketf's that does (check out Modification Help and you'll see some of his posts.)

I hate it when people act like Grammar national socialist's to try to win an argument.

minor spelling mistakes don't typically bother me that much (for example using your instead of you're) if it's just a casual conversation but in drama threads and stuff i think it's more important to check your spelling
although posts like this:
i am a very kind person i think im basically jesus ghandi and me all wrapped into one person(super nice) and i am sometimes rude but i try not to because its really rude and not kind at all (therefor not cool either) i think everyone on blockland is ver kind too,everyone tells everyone else how to act so they can be more like everyone else and i think that is a very kind thing to do,sometimes people are rude tho and they say things you dont agree with then wont adopt your opinion i think they should all be banned because thats very rude and inconsiterate :[ they are just grumpy toads that need to be SPANKED (im not doing to tho because im not touching your butts) and then you have those fartfaces who are just flat out mean to people i dont have problems i dont know(i would never ever be mean to someone because im super duper kind and nice and sweet and attractive) a tip tho you really have to watch put for rhose baterds that wont accept your ideas because they are just flat out WRONG when compared to me!!! ....... you have to look out for rude people in the real world too because theyre out there and they will give you merciless wedgies and make fun of flutershy and worst of all those human ones that have thier own agendas WTF :c :C :C just hide your lunch money and dont pet them have *** with your mom because they will and they will tell you all about it (happens A LOT)
aren't good wherever you're posting
i'm good at reading posts with poor spelling but dang, this was hard to understand

0/10 unoriginal and not funny would not read again.

You've got to be kidding me.

this is ridiculous

i dnt see th problm
The worst part is that people do seriously post stuff like this.
But yeah, minor typos / a little bit of laziness / bad grammar to signify tone are absolutely fine with me.
I'm not making this thread because I want everyone to have perfect grammar, I'm making it so that people don't have horrible grammar.

ppl r always goin' to hav bad gramr
