Dear ff.net writers,

Please use proper punctuation and grammar when writing your summary.  Please don't tell me how much your summary sucks, but your story is good (because I won't believe you). Please don't use internet slang (i.e. sux, thx, pls) in your summary (I get enough of that on Twitter). And really, it wouldn't hurt to reread your summary to make sure there are no spelling mistakes because, well, it kind of makes you look like a chump.

Written in Love and Frustration,
Me

Oh dear... :S
I´m soo terrible sorry to hear that. But well yes you actually right. I have also very often my problems to understand such comments when they just use slang :/ Ok i also admit that i use it by myself too. Like thx,prob, sry ect... :S But when you write a summary, yes its true, you should write correctly :S

Hm, but i´m also sorry when i make mistakes in writing cause i´m often to fast and then there will be some mistakes and sometimes i mix the languages ^^°° And with this i make grammar mistakes.. :( *sigh*

Anyway... As said, i agree with you! :)

There is a difference between people who are native speakers and people who are just too lazy to take the time to write something decent. I was just frustrated today because reading the summaries over at ff.net zapped my mental strength, LOL.
