Spelling 'I'm' 'Ime' is not a grammatical error, its a spelling error, and a fucking stupid one to make when (i presume) his first language is English. Ime is im, or i'm, not bloody ime.

*it's  :doh:

I'm is always I'm as it is an abbreviation of "I am" (which, incedently, is the shortest sentence in the english language).

But, like others have said, is it really that important?

And you're a stupid fuck for not understanding the basic concept if logic. How can you say you are cleverer than me, when you don't know me? Maybe i'll just call you a fuckwit - come back when you can do a little bit more than adding ,subtracting ,multiplying & dividing; speaking english and can throw appropriate insults out, instead of your own deluded ones, that have little to do with anything other than your God complex.

Touché (basically, well played) sir.  A decent riposte (comeback to you).  I don't have to know you to know I'm cleverer than you, you can tell a lot by the way people type...

You may need to lighten up a bit around here though - you seem a bit sensitive.

maybe leefer is dislexic?
i think he probably is to a degree.my daughter has it and it doesn't make the individual thick,spastic,stupid etc.
there differing severities of the condition and my daughter makes the same kind of errors leefer does.the spellings are typed how they sound, as they are easier to learn.she excels at maths but struggles with words.

I dont give a shit if somone doesn't have a perfect grasp of the english language.what they have to say is far more important than how it's put together.
give me a decent chap like leefer with the spelling mistakes,over a jumped up know all tossser who can spell anyday.

My name is billy, and i'm not cool on this forum. For this reason, i can't post an observation and get away with it. If only i was the one to say (subtly) 'this guy uses ellipses too much', but i guess i got beat to that by one of the king pins.

Although I appreciate being called a king pin, you should know two things:

 - no-one on here listens to a word I say;
 - most on here seem to think I'm a cunt.  I dispute this.

I am sorry girls, but there is simply no excuse for poor grammar, bad spelling or punctuation.

We are all taught it at school and by our parents (hopefully) and it is a basic requirement to live in a western country and to be able to communicate and fill forms in  ::)

Arriba and Sonic - you lack of leading capitals drives me fucking nuts. SORT IT OUT.

Alternatively consider yourself an English language spastic. That is all.

As long as it is legible I don't see what the problem is.

Does everyone speak the Queen's English when they're down the pub with their mates? I somehow doubt it.

Errrm.

Let me give an analogy. Take driving. Nearly everybody hates middle lane motorway drivers. Or drivers who don't indicate at junctions or roundabouts. Neither of these are illegal but conversely they show that the miscreant really doesn't care about 'acceptable practice'. Sure, the standards are there, but they are too lazy/oblivious to comply with what most of us consider to be expected.

English is the same in my eyes. It really isn't that difficult.

Also, the Queen's English isn't an accepted national way to speak. That would preclude regional accents, idioms and swearing (tbh). However written English is national.

The only thing that really annoys me on this front is text speak.

No, it's because you half use punctuation. That makes you fail to indicate and also never check your oil level.

This thread turned into a joke,I dont think it matters about grammar as long as it's readable,and i hated school and much prefered to go and help me dad do some building work,my point being just because people are not so good at grammar don't mean they are retard's/thick or whatever,Some are better at other thing's like manual work etc than sitting doing office work etc.I think some people on here need to realise that.

I could pick my doctor up on a few grammar mistakes when i can read it,I doub't very much he's thick tho.
