I have notice on this site there are a lot of members who are posting in threads with very bad grammar. I don't expect everyone to be prefect with grammar. I understand why foreign members have issues posting in English. Everyone should atleast try to write properly. There are people who are not posting a complete sentence and have tons of emotions in the post. Some people only post one sentence in a post. There are some members who write sentences but space them out too far from one another instead of making a paragraph.

We need good communication on this site. It will make the site more sociable. We can understand each other better. Please try to post with better grammar.

While I tend to agree with this, you cannot expect everyone to have the same standards of grammar as you do. There are many young members on this site, so I am never surprised when errors are made. This forum is more about the resources and help than the grammar, so I, as a moderator, do not feel it is necessary to adress this.

People may be young but they still need to speak to us clearly. Here are some examples of piss poor grammar.

actually..
the poll is right!
the writing needs to be better!

Great! That's Great!
Nice one!




People need to atleast try to write good grammar and that is all I am asking. They maybe young, but they should have been taught how to write.

This is another example of this issue. What is the point of your post?

RKO, this thread and you are so damn awesome.
I have long awaited someone to bring this up, as I'd have stuffed it up.
On some account, though, I agree with Ndrd. Some and most members are youngins and still haven't learnt what a comma is.

But for the sheer justice and epic win of this thread - and the fact that you brought up the issue without stuffing it up, you deserve this...

That being said, some people don't speak English as a native language, or in some cases, at all...

Grammar is important. Remove the capital letters and commas from the sentence: "I helped my friend, Jack, off his horse", and you will see.

It's not that big of a deal to me. Five years ago, when I cruised forums, i tiped like thes alllot, and no one bitched about it. So I tend to be cool with it.

Exactly. We all sucked at typing once upon a time, so I think it's fair enough that we tollerate people who are still reletively unadvanced with typing.

Yeah, I was going for that.
Anyways, I think Ndrd and SwordCake have explained why RKO is wrong - I agree with them

As stated by Ndrd we have multiple members whose native language isn't English. Attempting to enforce some sort of grammar rule would be detrimental to these people and even those who only speak English.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
