This is the Intellectual Forum.
Let's let that sink in for a bit.
Now, I know that this is the Internet and people are going to use improper grammar (as annoying as it is), but the Intellectual Forum is for exactly the opposite. I just got my test approved and I was quite disappointed with the posts in the forum. Can we at least use proper grammar, please? I know you can do it if you did it on the test.

I agree. Even people who pass the test don't use proper grammar in their posts.

none of these people are actually intellectuals, the only "intellectuals" i respect are like Wilder and that's pretty much it. everyone else are 15 year old shut ins with nothing better to do than write out an essay that the moderators only skim over.

Nah, I'm just kidding. I kind of agree, but sometimes people make mistakes. As long as its not typed like my first statement, then I don't see a problem. If a person makes a few minor grammatical errors, or they forget to capitalize a letter, or whatever, then I don't think that's something to make a fuss about.

Where did Winston go?  Let's get that bastard back.  Livewire post quality would go up by 30% alone by him.

I'll admit that I'm fifteen years old, but I didn't do the test because I had nothing better to do. I just wanted to be around people who type correctly and make quality posts.

I don't think anyone on here really believes that because they passed some silly test that they are, in fact, an intellectual. If they do, they only further exemplify why that isn't the case.

However, this forum is for "intellectual discussion", or discussion that is not limited to the scope of, "Muh BF had anal wit me, am I preggerz?"

Because of the type of discussion, and because of the fact that only specific people can post in here, those who can are called "intellectuals", or rather "Limewire Intellectuals". I think it is safe to say that the OP did not assume that everyone here is an intellectual in the true sense of the word;  and I support the OP in the claim that those posting in here should at least use proper grammar. Perhaps not PERFECT, but at least coherent and well-formed.

Just my two-cents, for what it's worth.
