Many people on GC dislike poor grammar. Why? Because you are communicating with others and asking for advice. We should be able to understand you. Instead the messages come off as juvenile dribble that is often annoying to read if not somewhat unintelligible. You are interested in joining some of our organizations and should present yourself as a mature and intelligent adult that would actually make a great addition to a chapter rather than someone who appears to have never taken (or passed I suppose) an English class. Grammar and spelling don't have to be perfect, but at least pay attention to basics when you are communicating to anyone outside your immediate circle of friends. Actually even with friends I would say a person should still use the basics when communicating anything.
Also, why are you being so defensive and then attacking a regular poster. It is not a way to make friends here and you are much less likely to get answers here. Plus it makes you come off as rather rude.
These are just my musings as people seem to ask why we care about spelling and grammar. I'm only a year out of college and don't understand why people think it is okay to slack off like this.
