This is a text based game in english. If you tend to make a lot of spelling/grammar/typo errors for whatever reason, other players are not going to be able to understand you as well as if you don't make as many mistakes. Comments about paying attention to the meaning instead of the grammar/spelling are silly, IMHO, because mistakes or typos make the meaning that much more difficult to discern. Whether or not it's right or fair, I find it much more difficult to interact with people who make a lot of typos or errors.
