i got a grammar thing.

knew and new
know and no

[RandomGuy]

i no EXACTLY what you mean. We all need to watch our grammer because it effects the way every one will percieve what we say. They will think that were stupid. Grammer is very important.

It's grammar not grammer.
Another thing I can't stand is the use of 'a' and 'an'. For example, A Integra is a acura, when it really should be, An Integra is an Acura. I think that's right, Oh well, I'm asian. I have an excuse for making grammatical errors.

Brandon i feel you on this all the time. I just hate the "For Sell" or "I have some stuff for Sell" or "i need to sale this quick"

Apparently I hit a nerve with some people on this board.

I don't think you hit a nerve, it's just a debate that will always be on going....

Apparently I hit a nerve with some people on this board.

naaah man, I think you just brought it to their direct attention. I think you caused some people to emotionally revert to 3rd or 4th grade english class.

"I hate Mrs. Campbell, she mad me look stupid infront of the whole class!!!"

BTW I posted that and he added it in.. Apparently it didnt bother him as much as it does you or I lol.

I does, but if I couldn't remember eveything that bothered me at the time of this writing. Some things slip through.

[Jaimecbr900]

Sorry to arrive late to the party Ruiner, but I totally agree.

This is also a pet peeve of mine. My wife hates it because I'm always correcting her spelling.

What's ironic is how many spelling and grammar mistakes there have been since the first post.....

[RandomGuy]

lol if you guys haven't noticed the post i had up there was intentional. Those errors were put there..

Anyways, I'm sure a good amount of the ppl on IA are immigrants of some kind, all having different backgrounds in the English language. Give 'em a break and let them "Sale theyre stuff" ..
lol yall know what they are trying to say so who cares

[Cliff]

i care...i dislike illiterate people

[ahmonrah]

i care...i dislike illiterate people

illiterate people arent member here, they can't read. but dyslexic and "spelling challenged" people abound greatly here!!

[ironchef]

IA essay contest anyone? hahah

[ahmonrah]

true certain grammatical errors should'nt be made. but, as long as i understand what the poster is trying to say i won't kick 'em in the balls about it. ok i lied. one guy here, i'm guessing he's from nigeria by his name.
spells his screen name NIGGERIAN instead of NIGERIAN. when i seen his posts, i'd get annoyed as shit, eventually informing him that unless he wants to be called NIGGER-ian, as opposed to being recognized by his nationality, which is what i think he was trying to do, he may want to change it.

my bad it was a typo

[ahmonrah]

^^^^^^wasnt trying to call you out or anything dawg. but nigger is not the most positive word in the english language that describes an african immigrant/ descendant. but if it's a typo maybe BRETT can adjust that and take the extra G outta there.

but im so used to it now.

[Spyder]

If you want it taken out let us know, if not you did it intentionally. Also judging by your past post you did it intentionally. it doesnt personally bother me but if someone decided to protest it , it would be changed for you.

[HyPer50]

*shrug* I always figured it was a joke... I mean why would a Nigerian be posting on ImportAtlanta? Oh well, if you really are from Nigeria, I apologize for the "tasteless" joke I made awhile back lol.

I bumped this because there are some ignorant people on IA.com.

they way u type has nothing to do with your education. some of us just could care less about what people on the internet think of us. the only time it should ever really even matter is if you were writing a letter to a company or for something important. but being just a internet forum or chat, i think some people need to get over it, its not going to kill anyone.

It's "couldn't care less" and how you type is a natural function. Think of it as second-nature in a sense. If you type incorrectly on an internet forum, chances are that you will do the same in the first draft of your school papers.

haha, yessss i know, but when i type on here, im usually in a hurry. if i am typing something like school reports, i take time on it. I'm not going to lie, i have caught myself a few times using internet slang on papers, and im sure alot of other people here have. but i always make sure to fix that before anyone ever knows

[TranceDJ06]

hahahaha...IA Drama Lives Forever!...but yeah people should read the first post in this thread

[Schugg]

haha yah some people really could use it, im not saying who gives a fuck which i think thats what my first post sounded like i was saying. i just dont really care for showing off my grammar skills to people i dont know. but im sure ill get molested by someone for partially sticking up for the opposite side of this situation. that will be fun to.

[tony]

I didn't read the entire thread but uhm.. picking up a book may help out as well. I know my grammar is not the greatest but it is not the worst by far.
