As long as it has decent spelling, a few mistyped keys are permissible. Syntax, however, must be impeccable. Apostrophes also must be respected.
I believe typos are just part of the internet,people trying to get their opinion out there before anyone else.
I try to use correct grammar and spelling all the time, not just online, except when I'm making a point or using specific abbreviations.
I don't criticize people for not doing the same, though.

i will usually do everything except for capital letters. i will occasionally put those in for names, or to make things clear, but aside from that i leave them out.
aside from that, i use punctuation fairly well (i think), and always go through what i said with the spell checker.

I like to try and keep it as technically correct as possible. The main reason for that is because my spelling and grammar are the first (and most significant) indicators of my intelligence that people will see over the internet, and you know what they say about first impressions.
I always try to make sure I have good grammer while typing. Hell, my Youtube comments look like forum posts. I have started lightening up on myself. Usually I will Google words to make sure they are spelt right. (Or is it spelled? Google wasn't clear on that.)
As long as I can tell what you're trying to say and you're not using "LOL" or "OMG!!11!" I'm fine with it.
I tend to use correct grammar as much as possible unless I am extremely pissed and I'm racing to make my point.
English was my worst subject, I was good at writting essays it was my spelling and sometimes sentence structure that let me down.
I don't look down on people who mix up 'you're and your' because everyone has their strengths, mine being science NOT english.
However I cannot stand poeple who rte liek diss.
They ruin the internet for everyone else -_-.
On another note:
I ignore typing mistakes in other peoples posts, we all make them!

I absoloutley and without exceptions, hate it when people don't even try to use proper grammar and spelling. If it's relatively good I don't mind, it's just when you get posts completely devoid of capitals, punctuation, and proper spelling. That bothers me to no end.
To be honest, sometimes correct spelling and grammar is just as important as the content of a message. More people are likely to take the message to heart if it is spelled correctly, than if it is hastily done, and poorly grammaticized.
