We happen to be rather lazy people who would rather get the content of messages quickly then sift through four-hundred-thousand incorrectly spelled or fragmented words or sentences even after sifting out the empty buzz-words. We are also, the majority of us, reasonably coherent people (internally, anyway) who have taken a lot of pride in the intelligence and coherence of this message forum over the past two years. We have had some extremely intelligent conversation and some deep philosophising here, both of which are a rarity on the 'net. So, naturally, we tend to react rather badly when people begin dragging this message forum down into absurdity and stupidity. That is why you get a negative reaction for poor spelling and grammar, and that is why you will continue to get a negative reaction to it.

And drop the second identity. Stick to one name - otherwise, it's pretty lame.
