The idea is that it takes extra effort and time to write properly, and they’d rather save the time. If you can still be understood, what’s the harm? While most of the time a sloppy post CAN be understood, the use of proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is generally seen as respectable and desirable on most forums. It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

Hmmm something is going on here.....Oh.... it seems there is some dispute over video taping of some sort......Frazz is really upset now..........wait a minute......whats he go there.......is it?

Exactly.
Threads and responses that have no valid purpose other to increase post count are liable to closure and/or deletion.
Posting such non-content is against the Dakka rules and if persisted may lead to a visit from a moderator. Automatically Appended Next Post: yakface wrote:
The Off-Topic forum is a place for you to discuss non-wargaming related topics, something that is not normally allowed in the rest of the forums.
HOWEVER, please be aware that all of the other normal rules for the site apply.
In particular that means you still need to be polite and friendly, even when discussing such hot topics as politics and religion. Also, creating spam threads or posts that are essentially gibberish is still NOT ALLOWED.
There are plenty of places on the internet you can go to make random senseless postings, so please spare Dakka from this drivel!

The rule it broke was 'If you are going to a comedy thread don't just plaguerise Monty Pythons Holy Grail, do something original and if you challnge me at Python again, as Achmed says. I KILL YOU!'.
