I find it important to use proper spelling and grammar, so I use it.
A couple of mistakes here and there do not really matter, but at least it must be readable by someone who does not understand leetspeek and such.

The worst that can happen is to make a spelling mistake that changes the original word/phrase's meaning, as is often the case with "defiantly/definitely" and "you're/your", "their/they're/there".

I like to use grammar when I post, but I'm not concerned whether or not others use it as long as their posts are understandable.

Between average and good. Well compared to my IRL friends, they seem to have a real problem with typing correctly.

I would have put "Perfect" but I don't freak out if I miss a letter or something.

Spelling is my only problem. And sometimes throw in slang which is also a problem.

As far as I can remember, there's been only one time when I decided not to care about the tiniest typo. I left it there and nobody noticed.

Otherwise, I always press "Edit" and fix the damn typo. Especially here, where people tend to go

Chose "perfect", but really, the "lol xD FUNNY" comments on the options are unnecessary.

Apparently creeped is my only problem. Creeped has a red underline when I type it.
It doesn't give any suggestion that fits the sentence.

Anyways, I'm not an ass about grammar, but I normally use it (occasionally using line breaks instead of punctuation and no caps, and sometimes no commas to mock people).
