Simple question: In correct English grammar a phrase, reply, or speech which is logically finished is ended with a point,
Code:
 -> . <-
But when typing a post on this forum it would be relatively easy just to forget about a small black dot en press post before your finger found the point on the keyboard.
Do you tend to stick to correct writing and nicely finish your sentences with a point, be it consciously or unconsciously? Or do you just move on not really caring wherever you write correctly or not? (again consciously or unconsciously)

Or do you not bother posting something at all? that's possible to.

Why yes, I follow grammar rules on this website, along with punctuation, logic, and hopefully intelligence.

I have a bad habit of putting :p or :)

Although when I don't put them I remember a full stop.

Yea, when did it become a point?

I try to use proper spelling and grammar on this site, although I will slip in the occasional smiley.

Why's OP's full stop bigger than my full stop? I want his/her one... Now!

Yep, I always make it a goal to use proper punctuation and spelling,
and burn those that don't.

BURN THEM.
Amen

At least he didn't call it a 'period.'

That really gets on my tits.

Yes, I tend to use proper punctuation. Unless I really forget about it, in which case I'll probably edit my post when I notice.

Sometimes i do, other times i don't, it's pretty random.
While the punctuation (and paragrahing) in between sentences makes what you're writing a lot easier to read, the full stop at the end of your post doesn't really serve a purpose other than pleasing the most extreme of the grammar nazis.
You don't need a full stop to tell you that the post is over, when theres no more words°

Actually, it'd really get on your tampon. But let's not argue over such minor things.

But yet you talk in it all the time.

Anyway, how do you like my new avatar!?
I use it for the porpoises of self-parody. And parody of the kind of thundercunt who actually speaks like that.

Also, must we use threads for personal discussion?

...

It's nice.

I end my posts with "something something bass or singing"

full stops are for regular people!
