"Or layed"?
Since when is that a complete sentence?

I'd make a thread titled For those of you who post to voice your opinion on those who post to correct grammar..., but that would make for TWO really fucking stupid threads instead of just one.

typing "lade" at the end is really more an issue of spelling isnt it? i dont know if that bolsters your point that grammar shouldnt matter on an online forum

Re: For those of you who post to correct grammar...
Out of all the annoying things that occur on TLS, correcting grammar is a rather tiny problem.
You can always try ignoring it. Sorry to give you the least satisfying reply ever but....don't know what else to tell ya.

Also, ending a sentence with "is" may not be a violation of a hard and fast rule, but it is poor form. Rephrase.

Re: For those of you who post to correct grammar...
When I read posts that are filled with endless spelling and grammar errors, I tend to take their arguments far less seriously. This also extends to real life situations. If one is unable to articulate their ideas and opinions in a grammatically correct manner, either verbally or in writing, they are at an extreme disadvantage.

Also, and this is more stylistic than grammatical, I really think it should be "post in order to correct grammar."

In that case, should there be a comma after the word "post"? Just curious.kalvano wrote:Also, and this is more stylistic than grammatical, I really think it should be "post in order to correct grammar."

Honestly, as annoying as it is at times, the grammar-police on this site sure make it a great place for learning to write properly; not a bad thing, I suppose.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
