Can't we simply write the word "STOP" in all caps to show the sentence divisions?

Cool

Nearly everyone I communicate with using text refuses to begin their sentences with capital letters and end them with periods. They instead call me 'grammar Nazi' which is incredibly offensive and also anti-intellectual. From this, I have concluded that we deserve another pandemic. In the past, I have advocated for biological laboratories to implement an inexpensive procedure that may prevent the accidental release of a pathogen that will infect everyone and make them really fat. Oh. You don't believe me? What about ADENOVIRUS 36? That is a virus that makes people fat. If you are fat, you may be able to blame ADENOVIRUS 36. Now I don't advocate for this anymore because people have been ungrateful and people have tried very hard to convince me that we all deserve another pandemic. And in the next pandemic, the vaccine will be in the ass.

When you refuse to speak correctly in any language, I will not be able to understand what you are trying to communicate. You are no different than a hippo grunting in the jungle. Oh wait. The hippo is much stronger than you, and those grunts mean "I'm gunna fukk u upp, n***a."

-Fuck you

I've noticed many friends disable their iPhone auto-capitalize and it bothers me. Why go out of your way to turn that setting off?

franky1-I am ignoring you. If you want me to respond to the content of your post (rather than just its existence), then you will need someone to quote you because you are a clam bucket and a chlurmcker.

franky1-I am ignoring you. That means that I will not respond to the content of your post. I will merely acknowledge that your post exists. I tend to ignore people who say stupid shit.

odolvlobo-Sorry. I could not understand anything you said. You did not begin your sentence with a capital letter and end it with a period. You also should have put a comma between your dependent clause and your independent clause. I must have read your 'sentence' about 50 times, but I still cannot decipher its meaning. Hopefully someone will be able to decipher your 'sentence' in the comments to help me understand it.

mich-So I just picked up a random book which is in Spanish. And in that book, the sentences begin with capital letters and end with periods too. There are plenty of reasons why people make grammatical errors (pure accident, non-native English speaker, lower level of education, low ability), but if you intend to convey a complete sentence, you should begin that sentence with a capital letter and end it with proper punctuation which is usually a period. The failure to capitalize and punctuate is usually the result of pure laziness.

People seem to want a pandemic very much since they have been terribly ungrateful for my efforts to make sure that biological laboratories apply adequate safety standards. I have been the only entity advocating for biological laboratories to implement a specific safety standard, and since people have been ungrateful for that, those labs are not going to implement such a safety standard, so they will release a bug, and we will get another pandemic.

you did not capitalise Franky, Odolvlobo, Mich

but i dont care that your failed your own test, i will just continue to laugh at idiots that have not learned to read will cry when they pretend to be smart by asking others to talk to them in a certain way

the whole point of the nazi element of grammar nazi is that instead of you being relaxed and chill with a social platform of people that are doing their own things, you want to dictate how people should talk to you
you are only 2 steps away from only wanting to converse with people whom has blue eyes and blonde hair

i would like you to, one day, go to england and visit cornwall, bristol, north-east-west-south london, birmingham, liverpool and scotland and realise that common english is not the oxford english scholars you pretend it is. real english is a beautiful thing its not as restrictive as other languages,

so please learn that real english is not your narrow minded small niche version you want it to be, english is more broader and relaxed

remember this important part.. this is a internationals social platform for open expression and discussion, many dialects

Yes. The people at the dangerous labs that do extremely dangerous research and do not implement adequate safety standards are the super-villians. I do not see why more people do not recognize this problem and what we can do about this. Or maybe you think I am the super-villian. Although refraining from saving people (because I do not benefit) is different than being a villian.

Well I do not think you need to stress on this so much. There is people who do not speak a language just perfect like you do but they still can be good people.

I think it is more about what they are trying to say. Not just how it may look to someone with better English skills then you. And I do not wish for there to be another pandemic.

when vocally talking or in a friendly debate people do not pronounce capital letters or ending periods, this forum is a discussion forum not a university dissertation

if you are unable to read the context and content of a whole sentence simply because it lacks a capital beginning and period end, then maybe its you that needs to adapt to a world where common discussion is not graded on structure, but the substance of the topic is

if you are getting too hyped up about grammar rather then content substance, then you are setting yourself up to cause yourself unneeded stresses
