Description Seriously. This actually does apply to so many, it's not even funny anymore. I can see not knowing and needing help with something. However, I know some that write things with plenty of grammatical and spelling errors. Some will change it when noticfied about them. Some, however, will say it's not important. It's not needed. That is seriously my expression when they tell me that. YES IT DOES!! You idiot!!! If you don't get that, than don't write! Or invest in a beta reader. For real.

Don't like or disagree? Maybe you have that same problem.

EDIT: I'm getting mixed reviews here. It's more for the lulz than anything, I guess. I even think I made some mistakes on it. That's not good, now is it? No. However, I'm just sick of people writing stories more like text messages. Please don't.

EDIT 2: has writtten this nice, lovely rant about what I'm trying to say here. All about why grammar is important. Read it!: NOW!! [link]

Please if you use.

I know! And yet people do. It's one thing in a text or something like that. But if it's a story, check it first! Please!

Well, on the intertubes it doesn't matter as long as it's not unreadable. I hate when people use it as a comeback after an insult too... :/

It's one thing for a comment-esp one that makes no sense. But when you try to read a story, it's horrible!

Well when a comment makes no sense usualy that is what is known as a troll. A story? Like in a book? That was published?...now THAT is...don't they have editors? Even if it's something like fanfic online the fools writing it should atleast use spell check on Word or something.

I'm talking about here. Online. And of course you can comment and give them tips about it as well. But no, they just don't care. What about learning from your mistakes?

Well it's because some people just need to say something. You don't point it out as much as possible do you? :/

No. Only once in a while if it's really needed or they ask. But some dont' even believe in grammar.

I forgot to mention that also on the internet people use grammar correction as an insult alot. So even when someone does it to be nice people feel offended.

Yes, but when they ask for help, and you give them help, don't you think they are supposed to be grateful for it?
