To all native english speaking, please advice
Dear all,I got annoyed every time I got a long message without comma or full stop. Not only because it is not comfortable to read (or I am basically annoyed because I am a writer/editor) but because I notice scammers do that. Or even he is not a scammer, I think a messy writing is a reflection of a messy way of thinking, don't you think? But then again, I am not native, so I wanna ask native english speaking, do you think it is important to write properly, or because you speak english in a daily basic when you write you don't pay attention anymore whether you write properly or not (comma, full stop, spelling).
Please advice.

When I started off on CS, I got most mail from locals,
Hi how r u ?
Wana meat upp?
are some examples of poetry I received. I don't mind some spelling mistakes as long a someone can put together a couple of sentences, but when I got post of someone with the spelling and the vocabulary of a 3 year old, I wouldn't have any interest in communicating with someone like that.
I try and type quickly in reply to blogs and there are plenty of typhos, grammatical errors, I don't think blogs should be about being eloquent of pen. Its to have some cyber fun /stimulation and as the lady said previously if you want to speak the queens English, write to her. Are you with you Mum ? Hope you are enjoying the great sunny weather here in Ireland
Lots of these kind of emails around from what I heard of other posters. I don't reply to these kind of emails as a "thanks, but no thanks" often sparks nastiness.
I have no problem with typos/sytax as well as long as it's coherent.
Thanks for good wishes GG, I'm back in Ireland working and spend the last 2 weekends with my mum and family in Germany (working there for a couple of days during the week). Weather was lovely and we spend one day at a flower show and got some great ideas there. Great weather in Kilkenny, too!
G'day mate hows you been trucking?
Did you hear about the Donny Brook at the Frog and Toad the other night?
