    Earlyish forums on the web were sometimes a bit anal about proper grammar. I remember posting on a Cedar Point (a large amusement park in Ohio) fan forum back in the late 90s early 00s and written into the terms of service was an agreement to use proper grammar and punctuation.

      Uft, the amount of forum threads from 10 years ago that start out helpful for whatever I’m trying to solve which descend into massive arguments about miniscule things is frustrating.
      I see grammar arguments a lot.
      Which is why threaded conversations are better. The petty argument goes in one direction, and the information goes another.
      Although linear threads are much easier for timeline based searching
