> That is OK, we don't all agree on the Oxford comma either. But I find it absurd for people to judge the grammatic style of others online - we don't even all speak the same language, how can we possibly all agree on proper punctuation? Oxford comma master race FTW! Seriously though, you're absolutely correct. The only valid time I can think of where one should probably consistently expect to have their grammar, punctuation, or spelling judged "harshly" should be in places/situation where those things are and have always been considered important. The writing profession springs instantly to mind, but other examples might be professional correspondence, documentation, scientific publication, etc. Places where language tends to be more "formalized".
