Basically, it was a 1 sentence review of their problem and everyone but the person I replied to decided to take it as anything other than internet fuckery.
I don’t think of myself as a troll but when people cast the bait and tackle for themselves, they don’t deserve feeling indignant. They kept feeding and I kept eating. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
however you see yourself, you come off like a not-very-creative troll in this thread. needling people about grammar is maybe the oldest troll bullshit on the internet and it was never funny. There are venues where adhering to a formal style is important (arguably), but a random thread on a forum ain’t it. It’s ok to show up in your linguistic sweatpants sometimes.
That is funny but making fun of someone because of their grammar is just not great. Perhaps English is not this persons first language. Maybe they were not able to get the same education as you because of outside factors.
Not at all. You sound like you’re 14 and trying to be “smart” in front of people who can barely stand to be around you.
You’re not even acknowledging the rebuttal to the argument YOU started, and refuse to see that they conveyed the message they were trying to deliver without your pedantic little rules.
Language is not a set of rules but a living, cognitive phenomenon and a system of communicative patterns acquired through usage.
I didn’t start an argument. I agreed with another user that OP used as little punctuation as possible, and then all you sour bitches came and started harassing me. Go touch grass kid.
i never said you were dumb, i said obtuse (for changing the topic at hand to something arbitrary) pedantic (for emphasizing the arbitrary rules if grammar) and a priss mound (for being unpleasantly self righteous about the aforementioned things) and i will never give a fuck about punctuation in certain situations or the criticisms of random bad faith internet commenters. This has added nothing to the conversation.
im just having genuine human interactions with you, after you in the first place took a jab at me over something arbitrary and unrelated to the original topic, and i think even with great effort to miss the point and deflect the trajectory of conversation, its very apparent how increadibly useless bringing up grammar and punctuation is, as this seems to be an exchange filled with animosity and ill will, going nowhere and accomplishing nothing.

are you suggesting that people maybe shouldn’t invest so much of their time and attention on things that ultimately maybe don’t matter all that much?

ACAB, especially the grammar police.
All Commas Are Bad?

Awe, feeling sad that it’s not about you instead?

You made a crass statement that was needlessly rude and people pointed it out and somehow that is harassment towards you? On a public forum?
God forbid anyone disagree with you, apparently we are so cruel to do so.

You’re still arguing, so it’s clearly added something that intrigues you.

Many word make seem mad. The calm please.
how things seem is not always how they are, take american and global politics for example
