My tip/suggestion for you (to get your posts merited) is to learn/pay attention on how do you write your posts. I mean the punctuation signs, typos, and many.. too many common words starting with capital letter when is not the case.
Grammar, vocabulary, and capitalization correctness don't help you earn merits. If what you do is only repeat what people already discuss.
Better post a shorter message, written well, than a long post with a lot of mistakes.
I agree because it is better if I can read a short post rather than a too long one, which both present a same idea.
I will say no to this. Not all of the forum members are English speakers or fluent on that language, we should not consider that (for me) what we need to value is the meaning and the depth of the person's reply or topic if that reply/post helps you give it a merit, or if you like the post considering that it's very informative not only for you but, for the whole community give it a merit! Correct grammar and punctuation's will make your post/reply outstanding but, what is the point of making it perfect if you are just gonna talk nonsense.
Don't get me wrong that is a good thing, but for me, I will choose to merit the guy that having a informational content with errors in grammar than a guy that have a perfect grammar etc, but talking nonsense.
