When a man asks where Mankrik's Wife is, and 7 post reply that your grammar was poor so that they feel like they are smart, WHILE still not not answering that question that was the reason ANYONE was invited to reply on the thread..how can these people think they are being clever.
When they ask such a question on the forums of a site dedicated to searching for such information, then how can you not question the interrogator's intelligence? :P
Heck, it apparently bugs the Wowhead staff enough that they implemented
Let me Wowhead that for you
.
Let me ask you a counter-question: Do you see a difference between someone lacking in education who still at least tries to better themselves and is able to practice retention of knowledge, and a person who simply is lazy and can't be arsed to retain something even when they've been shown the right way to do it?
Would you retain your job if your communications to your superiors repeatedly contained the same errors, even after you had been corrected, for instance?

I can tell a lot about a person by their grammar and their desire to use grammar correctly and effectively.
If you cannot be bothered to communicate a message clearly, correctly, effectively and appropriately, chances are you are not someone that I would associate with, either on a personal or professional level.
I couldn't have said it any better myself.
Good thing you did'nt then. ^^

If we work really hard we may just about approach the greatness of our higher grammatical overlords.
I'm sorry if you feel that I'm arrogant for asking people to communicate in a clear manner in a medium where the written word is the
only
thing you have to go on. I hate for you to be wrong like that, especially with such a weak appeal to pity.
Oh, and no, my post was not a troll - you brought up the whole "asking questions" thing, I responded to the situation you proposed.
I'm done with this thread. There's no use in debating when the opposition's (invalid) answer to everything is, "You're being a big elitist bully!"
