Having good grammar is important.

Nice job @ this.

Just a little nudge or so.. Semi-Colons' are used to connect two similar thoughts to finish off a thought in one sentence.
Just thought you should add that so people will understand it more.
Also, you forgot the most commonly, mis-used type of punctuation, eclipses. You know, the '...' thing. Over looked, but still useful to know.

I have to say something more here. I know it will end up in more -rep but thats life.
Now i will use myself as an example here.
I left school at the age of 16 to start a trade and have worked it ever since. I have had no need for grammar or spelling largely in my career so this is something that has gone unchecked in my life. When i was 16 and at school i was failing english anyway.
Has it ever effected my life? Only in situations like this. Online forums. Beyond that not at all. Generally in my life 99.9% of my interaction with others is face to face or on the phone or whatever so grammer is not important at all.
Should i be judged on this? Its a support forum not a english language forum.
I honestly think this takes away from the forum. Sure make a sub forum to help people who want to learn correct grammer. I would agree with that. But to expect good grammer is too much.
Its a SUPPORT forum. We are supposed to support each other.
Anyway thats about the end of my rant on this subject.

Yes. I completely agree with you and your opinion. Why is grammar important in trades that it is not needed in? Exactly it is not important.
As for the subject of being judge on a forum, online, by people who do not even know us? Ignorant on their behalf. It does not matter at one ounce about grammar on a support forum. If you can understand the person, than go about yourself and help the man. If not, request that he/she say it properly or more clearly.
Sub-forum thing; Good idea.
RE: Guide to grammar :D - JDBar - 10-31-2009
I think it's okay to use grammar incorrectly on some forums. It tells you a lot about the person who typed it. (though it IS annoying if they're trying to ask for support, in which case it should be used correctly.) I can't stand it when I notice myself make a mistake though.
