Having a line between the two suggests the first section "It's an English lesson, seriously" isn't directly connected to the sentence inside the brackets. Also, having "(find something wrong with that sentence)" in brackets means it should be connected with something infront of the brackets, and since there is nothing, the information present in the sentence is void.
Just mentioning that, so don't think I do that all the time ;) It's incredibly annoying when someone pointlessly posts with spelling corrections though.
Nice Gomme :P
Some people do have awful grammar though, I saw someone spell 'generally', 'jenrilly' on Facebook earlier, what the hell is going on there?
As somebodies already mentioned, if people begin correcting grammar then they've lost the argument as it basically means they have no valid points and need to begin personal and pedantic attacks.
But yes it is very annoying, especially when the person correcting them doesn't have perfect grammar as well. When I ran a fansite I used to have people applying to be a news reporter 'I have good grammer'. Never fails to make me laugh :P
I'm quite certain you don't need a capital e in english because it's not a name or a place so you don't need the capital e, not really too sure though.
Yes, you do. English is the best language, the majiscule emphasises this fact xxQuote:

but what bothers me if someone writes a huge paragraph of text and there is no spacing, or little spacing.. for instance something LIKE this (i was just searching for this as an example..):

both tbh
It's fine if someone makes little mistakes or typos (which I make all of the time), but people getting their "there", "their" and "they're" confused and people who don't know how to use the words "borrow" and "lend" properly really hack me off. General use of apostrophes as well, especially when people put them in where they shouldn't be.
It's a forum where members feel the need to correct others grammar.
It annoys me to see incorrect grammar anyway so well done to all the cheery pickers. :)
According to the rules of the internet all Forums are now monitored by English teachers and Exam boards looking for high levels of grammar and knowledge in the users.
Iyaaaaaaaaa
i'd answer your question, but then it would be like a lesson, sir.
I can't tell whether this is a rhetorical question or not.
You're all silly little *****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111
It's not an English lesson but being able to communicate effectively is even *more* important online than offline. Plus it's really annoying to read badly written posts. I don't allow it on my sites.
Depends on if it is formal or not. Formally, it should be "It is", not "It's".Quote:

id agree lightly it does seem that way, people are always correcting me, most of the time it makes me laugh tho!
didnt read any posts cba to many
but whenever someone is losing in a arguement they start correcting peoples spellings lol or if they hate you they will also do it, one use did it to me for a while and i got it done to me a few times in a arguement aswell lol
It means they're losing the argument and are trying to gnit pick their way out of losing. Just ignore, simplez.Quote:
