Quote: "looking professional is a very important part of this if you want people to take you seriously"
That is true in every walk of life. From business to game design, nobody will take you serriously unless you act serrious. Using proper grammar makes you seem more inteligent, where as improper grammar makes you seem incredibly lazy, lazy enough to not even be bothered to write out an entire word.
People will take you serriously if you talk correctly. Everybody should keep that in mind.

I even use proper grammar when I text people!
If I can do that, then people can sure as heck write out a full word with a ful keyboard.
Some people say that I'm crazy... And I agree.
USE PLY'S MOD!
