not a slight at justluke but a comparison
there are about a dozzen penny arcade strips where tycho gets a bit '...' about certain words and phrases
"they've castraighted the ampersand!"
springs to mind
im sure most english teachers who actually care about their jobs and pupils would read alot of poorly written but legible assignments with little to no punctuation (and in my case in the wrong place, so i rarely use them or the I as the shift key is too much hard work ;) )
for the internet and text messaging / im short and sloppy writing are common place
when i used to write my 'book' id just type on the fly and then see what was wrong later, i dont worry as much about internet posts as i treat them more like how i might speak
that is, i dont speak like i type or vise versa but you cannot go back and proof read what youve just said so sometimes unless its a glaring error im more than willing to let something simple like , . ; etc slide
without punctuation marks its harder to figure out where to pause
but ive met some people who talk without stopping one girl almost hyperventilated cos she just didnt stop for air
