NOT a ban, just a warning. It really bugs me how terrible some people are at English. |

Like how people say "your" in place of "you're", or get "then" and "than" mixed up. Agreed. |
|
|
A little known mistake is that "I would of" is incorrect. It's "I would HAVE" |
|
|
No.
Do you want to force 6 year olds to use good grammar?
They can't even spell anything right, for crying out loud. |
|
|
Yes relo, that would be nice if 6 year olds got a head start on correct grammar and spelling. |

It's not forcing them to, just tells them that what they said was bad grammar or spelling, like the red and green lines in Microsoft Word 2000. |
|
|
WHAT?!?!?!?
No!!!
Horrible idea. |

No. Although it is annoying that many people will not use proper grammar, we cannot force them to do so. Nor should we attempt to do so; it is their choice whether or not they use proper grammar.
Another thing; if ROBLOX attempted to enforce a grammar rule many users would complain. There would be people spamming the forums about the rule; not only that but the rule would be unfair to those who are still learning. |

Supported, 6 year olds don't have to be forced to learn grammar. They just don't need to forum if they can't use proper grammar. |
|
|
Support, I'm tired of seeing people running around "Lolololol giev may fiev roblux plz!!!!!" |

I think instead of a grammar rule there should be a program on ROBLOX forums which spell checks and grammar checks what you type. That would be more effective then removing peoples posts/giving warnings for improper grammar.
Kicking people off the forums because they do not yet know how to use proper grammar is unfair. A majority of ROBLOX users are 10 and younger, at those ages you are usually still learning to use proper grammar. |

@Zulor
at seven you should have good enough grammar.... |
|
ZulorJoin Date: 2008-11-30 Post Count: 4323 |
As a matter of fact enforcing a spelling/grammar rule would ruin role playing. The reason I say this is because sometimes people will misspell stuff in their role plays to stay in character. |
|
|
You can stop by my good grammar group and chat with civilized Robloxians who strive to use good grammar. It is a haven for the mature members of Roblox, too.
@Zulor: Some people's grammar is so horrible you cannot understand what they are even trying to say. Knowing they are from another country and English is not their first language is understandable, but so many kids are just plain IGNORANT and aren't willing to change! |

well this defeats the purpose of the internet
were not in school why should we care about this crap?
GRAMMA FTW. |

@ TedManiac
I'm just saying we don't need a spelling/grammar rule. A spelling/grammar check built into the forums would be more effective then a rule. And with a spelling/grammar check it is optionally changed which means role playing would not be ruined. |

It's not too hard to spell out the whole word.
English is my fourth language, And I have pretty good grammar. |

I AGREE HIGHLY. JUST ONE MORE THING TO ADD TO THE LIST OF "WHY ROBLOX IS EDUCATIONAL" (which instant messaging is not) |

Woah... some kids don't know how to! And it would be no use. Sinice you couldnt be banned, kids would just say " i can do what i wanna!! they cant bann me for spelling bad grammer!!! " And besides.. i think its a stupid idea. People can type freely! |
|
ZulorJoin Date: 2008-11-30 Post Count: 4323 |
They should just make a SPELLING/GRAMMAR check. To make people use it, it would auto change and you would have to click the word to change it back. Making it more of a hassle to use improper grammar. |

Yeah THATS a good idea i guess. But not what the guy who made this said.... |
