Obviously we don't agree on some things, but I can defend you on this one.
I don't see you as being a jerk, just openly opinionated and very vocal (keboardal??) about it. Just because we don't agree doesn't mean I can't respect your input, but it does mean that I'll make fun of it.
Our discussion previously got, somewhat loud, but never did I see you as being a jerk. I'm sure the way I write things can sometimes come of as me being
self riteous (to use someone elses terminology) but for the most part I type exactly how I would say something. Thus with lack of tone and facial expressions it can get confusing.
Personally I don't find ones lack of grammar annoying. In fact it makes them more human in my eyes. I've said before, I hold high respect for someone who has mastered the English language, but the fact is, we don't
really talk like that.
BTW:
Ostrasizer *can* be a word if you want it to be, do a definition search for
NEOLOGISM and see for yourself.

it's not because you called me a jerk, i am sure you believe that i have heard that one before.
i think it's the dig on my grammar that bothers me.
i know that in a literary arena this scatterbrain typing would be seen as deplorable but given the setting here?
sure,
ostrasizer is probably not a word but then i don't think webster's recognizes
roadie either so shouldn't that be acceptable?
on another board i once had a complaint about my lack of capitilization but my lack is far from an oddity.
i mean, in a community where an entire statement can consist of nothing more than "+1 on the armadillos", can't a guy neglect the shift key?
then i look at your stuff and see you misused
till and also failed to place a question mark.. unless Who is an individual here.... and the repeated use of commas is questionable, not to mention the overall sentence structure.
i can understand that you dislike me cause i'm opiniated or you dislike my thoughts or whatever but i honestly don't understand why my grammar is offensive to you.
even with as little as you have shared here, i conclude that you are unreasonable
