Y U NO USE DETAIL!?


First of all...
- This is my rant. Disagree? Engage in a highly amusing argument with me.
- I do not wish to offend, I wish to merely knock all of your heads together.
- Call me a hypocrite because of the title of this rant? End your life, you're not from the internet.
- The end picture, not offensive to the Jewish nation. It resembles a grammar Nazi.

I'm on PMC rather often. Looking for projects to edit, roaming around the forums in search of a decent YT series or server to sign up to. Hang on a minute.. WHAT DECENT YT SERIES OR SERVERS TO SIGN UP TO?
Ever noticed how people set up threads with appalling spelling mistakes, terrible grammar, highly offensive structures and an application greatly lacking in detail? I do. It makes my toes curl. It makes me want to literally hack their computer, find their house and force them to watch me teach them ALL of the English curriculum, from start to finish.
Example:
i wnt 2 make a yt seerys wiv lets play n feturing projects n stuff. sign up in dis thred.
aplication
ign:
skype:
cn u record:
y i shud pik u:
That example? That hurt me to type. You should all be thinking of me as a great person for making such a sacrifice.
What really offends me is the fact that people actually reply to it with less detail. AND THEN THE PERSON ACCEPTS THEM. Then, of course, the series never goes ahead because they are not dedicated.
Example
ign: stopid_loser93
skype: yh stopid_loser93
cn u record: yh i have fraps bu its not paiyed 4
y i shud pik u: i am dedcated n i cn run hamchi server n i hve mde lodes of yt vids b4 wiv 100000 subz
I don't understand why people would make an application with no heart to go through with it.
I myself have attempted at creating my own YT series. I set up a forum post, got a load of replies yet chose one. We filmed a video. I edited it, posted it on YT, then I heard nothing from that person again. It confuses me, though I guess it's not only the uneducated morons who don't wish to go through with it.
View my post here.
People don't know the difference between "your" and "you're". They also don't know the difference between "their" "they're" and "there".
Some people may say it's easier just to write the shortened versions etc, though you don't see my point. People willing to type "there" would type "theyre". That contains more letters. People may also say it's easier to write abbreviations, such as "b4" meaning "before". Being a grammar Nazi myself, I take at LEAST one second longer to read their text. I find it comes naturally to type with punctuation. I used to type like a moron, though not anymore. This means anyone could get into the habit. Plus, you wouldn't type like that on your CV would you? It just completely blows my mind in a bad way. Why can't people simply type with perfect grammar and spelling?

Ah. I know what you're all going to do. You're all going to post a comment with extremely bad spelling and grammar to annoy me.
I WILL DELETE YOUR POST.

This has been a rant by me, Rainb0wPenguin, on grammar, spelling and punctuation within PMC.

Enjoy, haters.

I love you both. Thank you so much for agreeing, I was expecting hate mail.
If either of you are interested, yet missed the "here" link within my rant, here's the link to my YT series application.

YT is a shortened version of YouTube.

Agreed!

(Pmc, Y U NO Post my comment! >:( )

Anyway... I tried to say that I agree with you.. Though Im not the best at english myself, (Im from Denmark)
Though I try to write more than one letter words like "K" und so weiter.. (Learned german in school! :D)
I wonderd what kind of projects you are looking for, for your youtube series? Ive tried and start some great citys myself, but I were never finished.. Im admin at EuropeanCraftzz (Dont consider this advertisement) but the owner sort of stopped communicating with his staff.. So.. If its some great city or so, which you are trying to start, id like to join you in this adventure.. Though I dont want to talk, since i'm not sure in my english.. (I hope you understand) Im a "great" (Yeah right) typer, and trys to make it funny when doing so (writing) in the chat at a server.. I am a moderator at Hillside (Again, this is not advertisement), which I might be, because of this sort of Humor.. I have my bad days as anyone can have, but Ill get back in the fight some days later ;)

I hope to hear from you!

(This might not be the place to contact you though.. And a wrong comment, if so: I agree to your post!)

Proper grammar ftw! And bad spelling.. Loves it..

Stay safe out there!

I completely agree with your post. I too have tried to find a dedicated person to do a decent YouTube series with,though seeing as I was not able to find one post with grammar that I could read, I gave up on searching for that person. Also I see you have just posted this post, thank you for saying what seems like not many people are going to agree on.
