I essentially got banned on another forum (can't post, but can view any thread) for grammar harassment.... yet me and another poster weren't arguing over grammar at all. Our argument was about how lazy he (the other person in the argument) is too lazy to edit his posts to fix his mistakes. Apparently that is grammar harassment.
On the site I mod, there's this running joke with one of the members where his constant spelling and grammar are joked upon.
Banning someone over something like that on the site you were on is just plain silly.
A pet peeve of mine is constant misspellings. But I've learned to just deal with it. But what happened on that forum was uncalled for. 100% uncalled for. And I bet that the other person in the argument got out of it with nothing against him. He's a whiny little brat.
One of my best friends, who is 24 years old, is a terrible speller. Always has been. Me and one of my other friends always give him crap about his spelling. His response 99.9% of the time is "Oh well" or "I don't care."
The response I receive from previously mentioned person is usually "I'm a programmer", justifying that it's natural for him to make mistakes like that. That really doesn't help though when he uses the wrong "your".
