Does anyone besides me check out the grammar on mylot? I read on some of the posting for example, the beginning of the sentences does not start off with a capital letter. And the word I always begins with a capital letter. Or is it that I am English & I look at these sort of things? Just a thought & I am not being mean or cruel. I was just wondering for sometimes I can not understand the sentences either.

I agree with you, but the sentence starting with capital letter or the words like 'I' written in small is all due to hurry, i also do it many times (see done one mistake just now ) but that is becoz of hurry or sometimes some shortcuts we use etc etc...but that doesn't mean that we are not good or not know those rules, its just becoz of lack of time (maybe becoz we know that our marks are not going to be deducted for all these mistakes, like it happened in our school days)....some people definitely here are weak in English and Grammar, but i just think it the way that...till we are getting what they want to say and understand the whole sense of the discussion, then its ok....!!!
I have tried my best...not to do any mistake here, still if there are some...Soory Mam !!!

Yes! I don't mind punctuation errors at all (such as not capitalizing, run-on sentences, misspelled words, etc) but it's sometimes annoying that a lot of the sentences in some posts are just..nonsensical. I just can't understand them, and it's good to know that I'm not the only one experiencing this. I totally understand how hard it is to learn a new language, as I'm in the process of learning TWO new languages, but.. Ugh. It just makes it hard to participate on myLot when there are SO many questions that just don't make any SENSE. *sigh*
