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.

I mean, in general, isn't it an member of a ship's crew that's in a position of authority?
But why is this in general, and what is the OP on?

I believe he is referring to his dakka title (which I'm also assuming he has changed since making this post). He hit 1500 posts on dakka and was given the ships officer title. Officers on a ship are usually people like the captain, chief mate, second mate, and so on.

Presuming its not including NCO's you're prolly ranked as a lieutenant in the imperial navy. At least I presume that's the track you had on.

Yeah, I have since changed my dakka title to A pylon, but plan to change back
