First off: Remember to always capitalize your I's but only if they're alone. I.E., a personal pronoun.
Second: Remember to use capitals at the first letter in a sentence.
Third: Remember to use correct punctuation. You need to know the proper place to put them. Which 'them'? There's a great deal of punctuation, and knowing WHEN to use a mark is as important as WHERE.
Fourth: Don't forget the enter key. Use it often-Come on, who doesn't like those spaces between paragraphs?
Fifth: Be sure to spell things right. It's not that hard to use the spell checker.Easily one of your best points.
Sixth: Don't ever use all caps; it's pointless and makes people not like you.

Really? Because the whole point of a grammar thread is to get people to use the correct grammar.

Also, there's this: http://minerealm.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=342 , which should be of some use to those who simply don't know some of this English grammar, for whatever reason.

Good point.Didn't see that thread,where was it?

Snital, just a point. After nearly all punctuation you have a space, then the next word or letter.

Moved to the Chat forum.

Generally I do, but I figured this might be one to leave a placeholder for. Will do in the future though.

Man it was 3:00am I was tired. This isn't supposed to be perfect just something to help people not look like complete idiot's.
And I had it in the chat first but I thought I would be better in discussion.
