I do, although I would be low ranked. Well, I don't consider myself Hitler, but I always try to use good grammar.

Grammar Nazis!!! =D

I don't hate or constantly scold people, it's very annoying when evy wd s pled rly bda...but I can't help that by telling someone on the Internet "Hey you're a big boy/girl take the time to spell write so others don't have to spend a couple minutes reading 10 words...", it just doesn't work. Plus, I don't spell right all the time, I use some shortcuts that don't completely destroy grammar and spelling.
In real life, I don't have to read the words spoken to me, so I could care less if someone says 'I are in school todays".

lmao.

I think that it's really up to the person to decide if they should use good grammar or not. I mean if your texting or something, then yeah, you can use bad grammar, just to be quick, but if your blogging or commenting on something then you should use good grammar.(and i exclude "LOL" and phrases of that nature to this grammar nazi thing)
I could really care less if someone used bad grammar, because I, for some reason unknown to me, am good at reading bad grammar and shortened phrases. If its someone talking, then it really depends how[i] bad the grammar is. If it's atrocious then try to use better grammar, but if its good enough where you dont sound mental, then go for it.

I prefer people to use proper grammar. Or atleast understandable.

*I find it ironic when I'm scowling at people for using bad grammar, and I can't even finish my sentences. lol That's karma for you. (I think that's what karma means.)

If you support this kind of injustice, then you are not with uncle sam....SON!

Anyway.......I'm half and half, I mean I don't support it, beacuse not evryone is the best "speller...erer" but as long as they spell out the word! I mean it's one thing if you don't use FireFox, (me) but when you talk in "L337" then your begging for it.

"I Iz R releY go 2 da stor N ordErs Dehy Candy"

.........Wrong

"I and a friend went to the store and bought some candy"

.........Alright

"I and a friend went tp the store, and bought some candy"

.........Alright.........PS the "tp" is "to", just that person did not use FireFox. (>_&gt

In this metaphor I am a gramar resistance fighter. People should be able to spell how they want. According to Cambridge studies, the human brain reads the entire word not each letter individually, so even with terrible spelling, iif the firs and last letters of the word are in the right place then you won't have trouble reading it.

Generally I think people should lighten up. It is unrealistic to expect people to have perfect grammar and spelling the entire time.

I myself, prefer to use proper and correct grammar but it does not matter to me if other people do not have proper grammar. As long as I can understand them, there is no problem.

"I Iz R releY go 2 da stor N ordErs Dehy Candy"


Like lil_gangasta_blaze said, that manner of language is wrong. That is an example of language which I despise. That looks like a retarded person wrote that.

I Am Going To Play Call Of Duty 4 Today

This kind of spelling looks strange and irritates me, but is tolerable.

Anything better than that is great.
