    When you type on a forum do you always try to type proper?

    When I type on AIM I use slang, don't capitalize, etc.

    Nope, I'm not guilty of this... If I type wrong; I do it on response because someone can't spell.

    I try to use proper grammar and punctuation all of the time. It's a little harder at work, since my boss has officially outlawed Firefox because he's not familiar with it.

    On a forum you really can't use slang and SMS lingo. It makes you look like an kid who hasn't matured yet. I try to maintain the same grammar and punctuation on IM too, but a few short forms do creep in from time to time.

    I try to get my spelling correct, but sometimes I get in a hurry and forget to check it. It is not a crime. The post can still be read.

    Cheers

    I type more or less the same. I probably use more capital letters on forums though. But apart from that its about the same.
