Oh, no. That is so wrong that I can't even begin to roll eyes. With speech, you have the advantage of tones of voice; you don't get that with typing, or writing. It is almost impossible to tell if someone is being sarcastic, joking, or serious through text alone, unless very exact, specific words are being used.

You see its verry important to include these types of redundancies, becaus you should never ever assume that every single person who will ever read what you have wrighten, will have the common sence to know things such as 'not being able to read will hinder your efforts to... read this!'
I'm an aspiring writer, and words are very important to me. That sentence could have been put: "If you don't understand what I said [typed], then you are probably an English reader, but not a speaker." See? So much more precise and easier to understand. The original sentence contained at least one double negative.

Such as people who dont know there are commas or periods at all, who dont know about hitting return, and who are clueless to the existance of the shift key. Those are the people you should be after.
Muuuh?
I'm not "after" you; I merely stated that I couldn't understand your post. Does it look like I'm slamming a grammar textbook against your head? Does it look like I was even correcting you in my initial post? No, I'm not playing GrammarBot here. (Although I do that elsewhere, in a writing community, but that's irrelevant.)

And that someone would just come with their little english books and say that im obvioulsy just an idiot who dosnt have the faintest idea at all what im doing... it upsets me.
That you tried to analyze my psyche, making assumptions about my intentions, offends me. Well, no, but it irritated me.

And the fact that you would waste your time doing something that has no real point also offends me. If you where attempting to join the discusion then you would have reason. But there really was no point in what you did. So i am offended twice.
Bwahaha. Thanks for the laugh. Now, please, go forth and wage war upon everyone in the board who so much as dares to post something off-topic in your sensitive presence!

But to compare to me an illiterat 10 year old whos post may contain a total of three words longer than 7 letters is just wrong.
Muh? Since when did I compare you to that?

Proper english is fine if your wrighting a history report, but it does no good when you attempt to talk. Real speach is probibly more like a series of two lined paragraphcs with no periods at all but lots and lots of commas.
Try a lot of run-ons and fragments. Oh, by the way, on the Internet, you have nothing to go by in term of judging a person's intellectual except - you guessed it - the way he/she types. It's like personal hygiene. Someone may have a wonderful personality or be a genius, but if his hair is greasy, his body stinks, and so on, I don't think most people will want to spend a long time in his company. Good spelling/grammar also lends you so much more credibility, as far as I'm concerned.

I shal conclude this with the information that i quite enjoy arguments and hostilities, but i hold no grudges
Neither do I. If anything, I enjoy a good, heated debate, although I scorn personal attacks and assumptions concerning my personality, intentions, or social life.
