But you guys atleast speak english, if you want to write a good text you atleast care about caps and punctuation.
I'm saying this because if a person wants to type well or not, it can depend on the language he/she speaks.
For example; spanish people must care about letters áéíóúüñ, german people about äöüß, norwegian people about åøæ, french people about � èòéâêîôûäëïöüæœ, ect.

And not to mention vietnamese; if you put a vietnamese text you'll see A SPAM of diacritics. And they even mix them, while english has no diacritics.

I've also found that when I'm typing longer posts, I tend to actually use proper grammar more. If it's just a couple words, I don't.

Epicduke · December 17, 2014, 09:51:44 AM

its more casual, I used to use proper punctuation and the grammar I knew at the time before, now I only use it when my phone autocorrects for me and in big topics I make

Most of the time I capitalize correctly, But if I'm tired and lazy I don't capitalize anything or use punctuation.

Couatl · December 17, 2014, 12:19:16 PM

I do it because it gives a mood to it

but I always capitalize I(s)

Derontchi · December 17, 2014, 12:26:15 PM

My typing varies based on how I feel like typing

You're naïve to believe that."Naïve" was just an example word. I'm not trying to be hostile.

TreeAtmos2 · December 17, 2014, 02:36:29 PM

i do it because i don't want people reading my text with feeling

Those words are taken from other languages .-.

"Most of the words listed here are loanwords from French, with others coming from Spanish, German, or other languages. Some are however originally English, or at least their diacritics are. One example is the oö in the now extremely rare variant spellings of words such as coöperation (compare the original French coopération), many of which are normally spelled with a hyphen to separate the two vowels, e.g. co-operation. Many of these spellings are so rare that they cannot be said to be part of the standard language."

Really if you started typing like this you'll get into the habit of doing it. You won't even notice it after a while. On occasion I'll forget about punctuation, capitalization, etc, however.
