Well hello there and welcome to my rant styled post.

Grammar Nazis

What is a Grammar Nazi?
A Grammar Nazi is someone who purposely corrects and re-writes another users post in a sort of " I'm better than you " manner, this can be annoying, rude and upsetting to other members.

Now I know grammar is important and is needed in everyday society but you're on the internet what more can you expect because frankly if you can't understand text talk/ abbreviations like " ello m8 how u doin " or " I iz col lik mi dad " you really shouldn't be on the internet, I mean if your going to come on here and ' troll ' other users by correcting their posts what's the point in you being here.

And yes Grammar Nazis are a form of troll as they spoil the ' fun ' for other members thus being internet killjoys!

yours sincerely

The internet has a way of making people lazy. That in and of itself would not be a problem, but if it becomes a habit they may start to have issues expressing themselves where it is not appropriate. Communicating your ideas clearly in writing is extremely important.

You need to understand that many people interpret webspeak itself as a form of trolling. It sends the message that the readers weren't worth enough of your time for you to compose a post properly.

If people didn't have their posts corrected, they'd continue to walk through life like a backwards retard.

We want to protect the internet from people who can't spell properly. There is nothing wrong with that.

Idiotic blog, writing bad just makes blogs and other stuff completely ignorable, how can you understand somebody that writes without punctuation, or with a completely wrong grammar.

Also those abbreviates you speak are sometimes a living hell, ppl invent so many of those it's hard to keep up with it.

I'm also a defender that languages most evolve, and if many write a certain way the language should change and adapt, but obviously stuff we see on the internet are an exaggeration, it's not like there is a unity on the writing style.

I agree with this. I'm happy to use stuff like LOL, TBH, WTF, etc. But I am not happy about people talking in absolute crap language.

TBH is a new one for me. What is it?

Yah, some of those abbreviates are already universal and everybody gets them, its like they already belong to the language, the dictionary just need to keep up with those few that deserve to be in them.
