It's a courtesy to others to write clearly, and it doesn't hurt to take a minute to proofread before you hit the "submit" button.
Class dismissed.

To me a poorly written/structured/spelled post is the same as a BST listing with no price, not gonna spend much time there.
Now there is a great deal of difference in a post with a wrongly spelled word and one where you need an interpreter.
I'll also cop to be a very poor typist and get very lazy proofing before I hit send, that creates issues as well.
