Is grammar important when messaging? I don’t see why there is fuss. Surely a hot man with bad grammar is better than a ugly man with ok grammar? I don’t get it?

Grammar will be more important to some than it is to others. I don't care much really and my own grammar isn't up to scratch. I think though that there's a point at which it becomes difficult to understand what's been written, then its important.

I think grammer gives an insight into the person using it.

Some people are attracted to the educated and intelligent more than looks. It's about a whole connection.

This is it. When it’s so bad you can’t understand what they mean then yes it’s important and yes occasionally we get messages like this.

After being here for years I've come to the conclusion that most of those who say grammar matters to them to such an extent that they will reject people because of it are actually amongst the most ignorant and uneducated oh here. It's like having the biggest car. They think it's a reflection of how wonderful they are.

If someone can talk on the phone and we banter, what would I care if he didn't enter for the Fab Pulitzer ?

I strictly go for a decent level of grammar when I contact a local man.

To the point that if there is no use of capitalization of their locality I just skip them! Yes, that is Grammar Nazi for you, I admit it!

It is not as much about punctuation or spelling, it is more about coherence and that they have made an effort of communicating about themselves, or what they are looking for.

I suppose the Original Poster refer to 'ugly' as something exterior? Or a photo? I genuinely could not care less! It is, as Celestine says, about level of education and intelligence. That wins me over!

Hence, there is another advantage for me meeting people offline, and not here: I get to let go of my own preconceptions and just meet the person for who they are, for who I have in front of me in that moment! Real Life beats everything!

I find it terribly amusing when someone calls out another over spelling or grammar, and on checking their profile, find it littered with mistakes.

This!

I'm dyslexic, but I always make an effort to write correctly, occasionally my phone takes over & odd words pop in without me noticing.

I not a grammar Nazi, but I can't abide the constant use of text talk, and if punctuation isn't used, so something reads as one continuous sentence, then I struggle to read it, and that would put me off.

The written word is important online, it’s the initial way a person portrays themselves, can be an instantaneous make or break.

If I can’t read / understand the message / forum post, I’ll skip by that and onto the next.

Yes, I was too lazy to write enough for grammar to show as badly, however the message about poor grasp of the written language and the effect on comprehension was very obvious by missing punctuation, and spacing.

By all means, choose who you want to interact with on here, using what ever preferences you like. If poor grammar or spelling doesn't float your boat, that's ok, just move on.

When you feel that wound up by it, that you have to post about it, little chinks in your armour start to develop and we all get a glimpse of your neurosis and superiority complex.

None of us is perfect, it's part of the human condition!

We all have the rite to exist, imperfections and all, with out someone, who thinks they're a better person because they know the correct way to use apostrophe's and exclamation marks or, all the exceptions to the i before the e rule etc, constantly pointing it out and trying to make those not so good at it feel small! I doubt you are perfect your self in all aspects of life. Try and be a bit more tolerant and understanding.

With out that person with the poor grammar and terrible spelling, your life certainly wouldn't run as smoothly as it does!

If you don't want to fuck them, that's fine but, don't moan about them!

It's personal choice at the end of the day.

Although I ensure the grammar and punctuation of my messages is as impeccable as I can achieve, barring getting screwed by my autocarrot, I am not particularly concerned if someone else's is not perfect..

It does annoy me when there are those threads bemoaning others poor grammar in almost a name and shame manner. I find it slightly distasteful and degrading for those who may feel it is aimed at themselves.

Just accept people for what they are, fab is a cross section of society and as such is not exclusive to those that did well academically in English, neither should we assume poor grammar means a lack of education? Who here is able to understand a single thing their GP writes!!!

For couples and women, the bottom line is we get tons of messages from men. If someones grammar is all over the place, they come across as a bit thick and that puts us off.

Depends what you're looking for. If someone has absolutely zero ability to wrote a cohesive message, then no matter how hot they are we're likely gonna struggle exchanging enough messages to ever meet the person, and will likely therefore not bother.

You don't have to be a scholar, just be proficient enough to be understood without needing your message read through five times, as no grammar seriously ruins the tone of a message too and could end up looking bad anyway.

Because everyone, us included, has their own bias and agendas. No one wants to feel excluded, so people align themselves (subconsciously) with those they feel share value and qualities they either have it admire.

They then defend these ideologies.

Absolutely!

Grammar is important and, I think it's fine to use it as a filter. Not so cool to make a point about how useless one views others who aren't so good at something.

I think some people's personal development programs should concentrate more on the self and less on others and, perhaps include a little more tolerance and a lot less criticism.

I do believe that was in the form the question "would you care to procreate with my good lady wife" but I do believe he intended it to say "madam, would you care to procreate in a safe manner, with oneself?"

I can see where poor punctuation could cause a level of confusion...

No, cohesive was correct, it should have just been followed by sentance not message.

Explanation:

"Coherence is based more on the logic of the ideas and how they are presented rather than on the language that is used to express these ideas. "Cohesion" refers to the degree to which sentences (or even different parts of one sentence) are connected so that the flow of ideas is easy to follow."

If I get lost reading a message due to its lack of clear structure, I switch off. Admittedly I shouldn't have used the word message instead of sentance though haha.

Who's you want her anywhere near him?

If you'd be bothered in those circumstances, but not in the one you mentioned, then maybe it's just that you value quantity over quality when it comes to your own pleasure.

Does it tell you to NOT meet with them because you bat for the other side.

Seriously, this message is a prime example of someone who cannot write English calling others out.

Allow me.

It gives a clue to the type of person you might meet. In my experience a correctly spelt message,with good grammar and substance,tells me a lot about a person.

Text talk, poor spelling and 'Wana fuck me Mrs?' suggests to me, there is a pit bull in the hallway, a disused sofa in the front garden, Jeremy Kyle is the family hero and Sunday-best means clean trackies!

I have dyslexia and struggle massively with gramma and spellings. The amount of profiles you see moaning “dont contact if you dont no the diffrence between your you’re ect, who cares doesnt make that person any less attractive in my eyes!!!

Not part of the Grammar Police, we all miss mistakes or bloody auto correct catches us out, but there's nothing wrong with making a concerted effort though. But for those that won't or can't see your efforts, sod 'em, probably not worth meeting anyway if they're that up themselves.

"Is grammar important when messaging? I don’t see why there is fuss. Surely a hot man with bad grammar is better than a ugly man with ok grammar? I don’t get it?

For those of us who are ugly, good grammar is all we’ve got

ROLF!

I like your thinking! And I can identify with it too!"

That's me too. Actually not quite the only thing I've got.

I always enjoy visualising a grammar nazi meeting someone in a club, and having an awesome night. To then receive a misspelt, grammar crash of a message the next day

I don't think anyone expects perfect grammar, but it's nice to be able to read a sentence and not have to guess at what was meant.

Grammar is just a way to try and increase comprehension through context.

For example

Let's eat gran.

Let's eat, gran.

I love her period

I love her, period.

Man meat tastes so good!

Man, meat tastes so good!

These are obviously just one type of example, but grammar fails can really fuck up the meaning of a sentence. You can seriously misrepresent yourself if you're not careful, and it's hard to come back from saying the wrong thing if someone takes offence.

"Grammar will be more important to some than it is to others. I don't care much really and my own grammar isn't up to scratch. I think though that there's a point at which it becomes difficult to understand what's been written, then its important."

sometime the only conclusion you can reach is that they must be mad d*unk....spelling matters a tad

When it takes longer for you to read than it did for them to write, that can be more than a little annoying.

How would you know how long it took to write it?

Unless you are referring to text speak.

Grammar can be important but people asking questions and then falling off the site is more important as to what's up with you.

Txt speak was what I had in mind with that point.
