sorry chap...this is how i write when i write informally...i kinda like the t.s. eliot style, kinda suits me...

Welcome to FR. At the risk of harping on style v. substance, if you look at mosts posts on FR, folks try to write in a way that's readable and coherent, and not like they are teenagers in an AOL chat room.

I've found myself conciously or unconciously avoiding posts that are tedious to read because of run-on sentences (lack of capitalization can appear that way), line breaks every 5 words, or lack of paragraph breaks. One person on FR writes solely in Japanese stanzas, for some reason, which I find completely unreadable.

Yes, I probably miss a good idea or two by skipping such posts, but I make up for it elsewhere.

I wouldn't worry about it. If they are to lazy to use the English language as it is supposed to be used, I doubt their point of view is all that illuminating.
