The Internet Is No Reason To Abandon Proper English
Really. I really, truly mean that. You should still spell out words and use proper capitalization. And for goodness sake spell check stuff before you post. And, for those of you who write fan fic - people talk in contractions more often than not, at least American people. Thankfully none of the people on my flist have this issue.
Can you tell I've been trying to find a good fan fic to read and haven't been having any luck? A good chunk of people just can't write. They have decent story ideas but the characters are all wrong and the grammar makes me cringe. So after about three paragraphs I get so annoyed I have to abandon the fic regardless of how interesting the story seems. Cause some people just cannot write. *grrrrrrrr*
Okay, rant over. Feel free to ignore this post completely.
