I hate to say this, but it does bother me. I find myself picking apart many posts in my brain. I too have bad posts where I may have overlooked a word or two. I always proof read my posts and always miss a word or two. I do notice, with these days of spell checker, my mind is not excercised like it was when I was younger. We are dumbing ourselves down unfortunately.

For me its the long, long posts without paragraphps. How the heck do you read a twenty sentence story with no breaks? And if they leave out punctuation... I just move on. To much hassle.

Besides, who has the time to write, none the less, respond to this type of question anyway. I mean really have you nothing better to do?

Before you get your knickers in a bunch, that last bit was a joke.

Yeah, this isn't English class and you are not going to educate proper grammar on this site. I totally agree with you, but again, this is not the place to educate about proper grammar. Some of the worst cases actually post some of the best information. You just have to sift through all the bad grammar to understand what they are saying.
As Metallica would say; sad but true.
