161. Please don't lump spelling errors in with grammatical errors. Because there really is no excuse for spelling something incorrectly in the days of online dictionaries and Spell Check. But grammar is another story entirely. Even published authors sometimes make grammatical errors, and many fanfic authors, especially younger ones, honestly don't know any better. When I was fourteen, I had not yet been taught the correct punctuation or formatting for dialogue. I didn't realize that I was Doing It Wrong until one of my reviewers politely informed me that I was. Grammar takes time and effort to master, and even Wikipedia can only help so much. If someone is unaware of all the rules, they will miss certain errors even if they do proofread. That's why beta's exist; but some fanfic writers don't know about betas, either.
tl;dr Why not tell them what they're doing wrong, instead of being a snob?
