Generally speaking, spelling, grammar and punctuation are like second nature for me. The only thing I tend to slip up on alot is capitalization. The only word that I have come to find that I ALWAYS have capitalized properly is 'I' (dont ask me why. I always do it involuntarily.).

You might want to work on your apostrophes as well.

It's true, I can usually get along fine with just my common sense.

This place is great! This is the first time I've been to a forum where they actually enforce correct grammar! Good job! :D

Now for a quote from another forum:

Good job, Star Way. Thanks for making a rule about spelling. I, in fact, spell good.

Although this is old news to me, I just had to pop in and agree. This rule is awesome. You should be enforcing it a bit more strictly though. I've noticed several people here who are in violation of it.

What a rule! I don't like how people purposely misspell words. That's why I enabled the spell checker to go as I type, so I'm always accurate.

Capitalization is a part of proper grammar. You seem to have that down. Others don't.

I have no problem with this rule. I may misspell some words occasionally, and forget to capitalize.
I'll try not to type in instant messenger language, as I like to call it. :D

I don't have a problem with this rule. I'm a slow typer anyway so I shouldn't have much
of a problem complying with it besides an occasional misspelled word or two.

It'll take me a while to get use to it, but I'll get it. I'm not used to talking/typing this well online.
