I think when people correct others it's more about them than it is the misspelled word or poorly written sentence. Just sayin' ;)

Well, it's situational. Sure, there are some people who are just out there for the sense of superiority, but in a writing-oriented community I think it's safe to assume that most writers want to write correctly, and see others write correctly as well. ^^
 
nah, if somewun makes misstakes by grammar and such, i Usuly only correct them when their either hard to understand, Ugly, or uncomon. language changes in a proces i think is radher akin to NAturall Selection, and I dun tink i can d0 anyting to stop dat and such

That was hard to write. I feel like I should elaborate more, but I'm too tired and lazy and whiny and I just came out of sickness and ACH
