    Do you think

    Typing on the internet has improved your grammer/punctuation ect?

    Or has it become worst lol

    I actually think my grammer and punctuation have become more sound.

    oh it will offend someone who can't type and get locked (of course maybe they could just do what I did and print out a "typing" keyboard and practice while they type, but hey to each their own ) A dictionary is really cheap too, they even have second hand ones too if you are broke like me

    I think it probably has gotten better, I dont usually use lil abreviations and internet slang. I try to compose proper sentances so people can actually understand what I am trying to say. However, My spellin certainly has gone the the pooper

    I've paid more attention to my own typing and grammar after reading some other people's messages on here!

    I've discovered how flagrantly ineffective the average individual's penmanship or typing skills actually are. Perhaps they are oblivious to this fact.

    As a linguist, I am shocked at the spelling mistakes made by supposedly native English speakers. Grammar isn't such an issue, unless it's confusing - but spelling mistakes can really make a post unintelligible. Sometimes, I'll use Internet abbreviations and such, but I always read over my posts before submitting to check for spelling errors and to make sure it's understandable.

    Me too (guess what guys, the f-ed up typing on purpose was fun for about a second If it's not on purpose, learn to type, it's not that hard )Flame on (but could you at least spell it right? )
