at least everything was spelled correctly, a feat many cannot manage around here, even with spell check and a dictionary.

Why would posting obvious flaws in grammar, spelling or punctuation be considered a good idea here? If you are going to make a point, do so in an erudite manner consistent with being an educated person.

I would hardly hazard a guess about your feelings, nor do I want to.

Just write in a fashion that is easily read. Spell correctly and structure your sentences like they taught you when you were 7 years old, it's not that hard. I consider it polite to not "1337 5P33K" and "text-message/IM" in a forum. Going overboard with smileys or making a post consisting of nothing but a smiley grinds my gears 10x worse though.
