How well do you think your vocabulary is on the internet?

I'll just ask, as I'm terrible as judging myself. How do you all think my grammar/vocabulary is on forums?

Not too bad from what I have seen Xuphor.
Although I did spot some spelling errors from a recent
post but usually your grammar is decent.

Edit: My biggest problem while writing is that I think alot faster than I type.
So I tend to think I wrote a word down and I didn't. That tends to make things
not make sense. But I always spot it when I do.

I should like to think my way of writing to be read as from the mind of a mentally deranged homosapien of sorts.
Forsooth, my use of words might not be prudent at times, albeit, I quite believe that my content to be adequate for the purpose of communicatory purposes.

I usually try and write like a person, who has obtained an education above a 7th grade level. Although I do make small errors that can easily be fixed by proof reading which more often than not I'm to lazy to do.

I usually am to lazy to correct any grammar errors in my posts, or to lazy to type a long paragraph or something if I'm writing a blog. I try to write at a 6 - 8 grade level. With the exception of cussing and a"text talk", that is. :P

I tend to think that I type in a somewhat well-mannered form, but I know that from time to time I sarcastically slip in ungrammatical phrases (or perhaps I'm using those phrases to show my sarcasm).

I keep my writing at a high level, so that my speech may also remain so. I've noted on many occasions how my speech is affected by my typing. Best example is the word "bro." I never used it, when speaking or typing, until it became associated with insulting (through imitation) a member of a forum I used to browse, and although the original phrase was "lolbr0," the word "bro" secretly crept into my vernacular.

I pretty much use the same language online, as I do in real-life. I try to use language that gets the job done, but dont go overboard with superfluous language. :P

I don't think about it but mine's usually quite good. Unless I'm trying to be funny or mucking about, in which case silly short words sometimes work better. I wouldn't say I have a wide vocabulary though. I suck at crosswords.
