Capitalization generally varies between posts

I seem to hate using ending punctuation if anything

When I'm serious about something, I'll use proper grammar.

I don't read over my posts before submitting them though. So if I make a typo, it's because I didn't catch it as I was typing it. Usually I'll fix them in edits though.


And of course, when I'm talking about something I really don't care about, I won't use any grammar or punctuation or capitalization.

Great. Anything misspelled or in bad form is just me in a hurry. I usually fix it immediately with an edit.

I occasionally don't put periods at the end of a paragraph, but that's usually when I'm not being serious, so it's not that big a deal.

I don't mind "kinda bad" grammar, but I despise horrendous grammar. Like Capitalizing Every Word In A Sentence, or using big words that you damn well know you can't spell to try and sound impressive, when a smaller word that means the same thing would suffice.

I actually like to type properly but oftentimes I just type how I imagine myself speaking (I suppose after being around the internet for a while you see a specific tone in how people type as opposed to their actual word choice)

Like when I am being really asinine I avoid capitalization :3c

I do try and use it a lot, but I have my times when I do not. It depends a lot on how tired I am.

Under most circumstances, I try to use proper grammar and spelling. That way, people can understand what I'm saying.

On forums, message boards, etc. where posts are quasi-permanent, I try to keep my standard up in the "Perfect" area.

On AIM, IRC, etc., my standard drops to "Low" -- mostly because I'm too lazy to capitalize there and make more spelling mistakes (what with the lack of an "Edit" button and all).

Forums -> between Good and Great.

Trying to write properly. If I do a mistake, it's because I'm tired/didn't know better.
