Yeah, when people say "your an idiot" to people for expressing opinions on the internet, I get on them because they kind of deserve to be taken off their pedestal and have that pointed out to them.

I think part of the problem is that in some fandom circles, the only people who don't write well - and who even use a lot of CAPS LOCK and netspeak - are very young members who never seem to last and trolls. I used to belong to circles like that, so when I came across people who did those things, that's how I responded to them. Of course, I was going through my own stress and feelings of inadequacy at the time, which I'm sure was unrelated. I wish I could apologize for being such a snooty twat to innocent people who hadn't actually done anything wrong.

Fair enough, if someone's gonna be nasty, then their writing is fair game, but I hate seeing it directed at people who are not doing anything worse than forgetting to punctuate. It's definitely one of the more prevalent forms of classism I see online.

AYRT

Yes, exactly. Leave people alone. They made a mistake.
