@HentaiWarhol What the hell is wrong with you people ? Why do so so many people get SO triggered over somebody pointing out grammar mistakes (in a polite fashion, mind you) ? It's actually doing them a favor, showing them a mistake so they're aware of it and can correct it. How do you know if the original poster simply did a typo and doesn't care about it, or genuinely didn't know the correct spelling and now is grateful that he learnt it ?
Critique is good and healthy (of course, politely and in moderation). It's allowing us to improve ourselves. The only people you don't critique are those who you truly don't care about in the slightest, and/or that you don't want to ever engage with.
And before you say it, yes grammar is important. In written text that has the potential to be read by hundreds of people or more, grammar is very important. If left unchecked, people will gradually start to write more and more wrong and the potential of not understanding what they are writing or, even worse, incorrectly assess what was written increases. No, not everybody that tells you of a grammar mistake is a pedantic grammar nazi that has nothing better to do.
If it's only the private conversation between you and your buddy, then, yeah, write in whatever style you want.
