Translation:
Yes, I know that very well!

Of my many pointless skills, typing pretty fast in leet is one of them. Alternate caps and the simple bastardization of the English language are a bit harder for me.

People in the ED think spelling and grammar are the same thing.

Majority of the people on Gaia have mediocre grammar, to be honest. They can write full sentences and punctuate properly, but it's always the smaller rules that get overlooked (e.g. no preposition at the end of a sentence). I don't particularly mind it though, since it's still easy to understand what they're saying. Plus, I deal with people who don't speak English as their first language on a regular basis. I've seen/heard much worse.

Yeah, there are defintely a certain tolerance I have with people who can't type well. My first language isn't English and most people I have to meet in my immediate or non-immediate family use very simple sentence structures that sometimes they don't make sense, in an english way. So that makes sense.

My first language is French. I moved to the States from Perros (not Paris for the last fricking time!) when I was 8 years old. It took me a while to learn English and I worked really hard. It just makes me so angry when I see people who speak a language all their lives and then rape it, defile it and practically leave it for dead.

Ehh... but language kinda evolves over time. I mean... we're practically raping Shakespeare's a** on a regular basis.
