Because sometimes (in general, not you), people want so much to be right, it gets tedious to have to watch every single word you type and be so accurate.
This isn't an easy way to communicate, it's harder to relay emotion/expression...
Emoticons help (which is why I used

instead of

, one is more playful), but not fail-safe.
I wasn't mad, but we do get TOOOOOOOO into semantics sometimes...Someone just asked a question...We aren't all experts...I'm speaking from personal experience and so are you...I could have prefaced it by saying "I've found that the flag means blah blah blah", but I didn't.
Gotta give each other a break...ok?
