I used to be annoyed at people who double post, but when I really thought about it, how much does it really matter? Are you just complaining about double posts for the sake of complaining or if you have an actual issue against it? In his case, he quoted two different people and he is justified in that he doesn't know how to multi-quote, as operationstrawbarry has mentioned. It's not like said "hey", "how", "are", "you", "doing" without a reason in 5 different posts. As long as you have a good reason to double post, then the second post is not too much of a waste compared to a post telling another to stop double posting.

You would see a lot more of me being an asshole. Like I used to be back before I made this rule suggestion to the rest of the staff.

@Virus: I bet you're hitting the "Quote" button to reply. Perfectly fine. When you type one of those replies, copy the entire post and paste it into the second reply. That way you're not double-posting.

Posts merged because seeing your oversized avatar twice every time you post is getting annoying.

Even so, how annoying can you really be if you double post and say things that have some meaning.

What? I tried not to post in here, but this guy is why I fear for future generations and their ability to properly speak English. People like this shouldn't be allowed to procreate.

Who cares? Like Sh4d0wD3v1L said, people like that need to be castrated. Stupid + stupid = more stupids.

Well...Foilman said that bad grammar makes you look less intelligent. He didn't say it meant that you actually are less intelligent. Just clarifying that because you took it in a very different way than stated.

I've seen worse grammar on some other forums, really. I try to get used to it.
What I don't like is when this one user always posted in stanzas, like poetry. Kinda like:

strawberry is my favorite food
you should like it
what about you
do you like strawberries

I never saw the poster make a complete sentence ever.

Usually when I talk on the internet, whether I'm writing an e-mail, instant messaging someone, or posting in the forums, I try to use good grammar to some extent. For me, it's a personal choice to help me get my message across without as much confusion as to what I'm saying. Usually bad grammar doesn't annoy me too much as long as I can understand what they're saying.

I do use AIMisms sometimes, but I really only use the common ones like lol, brb, and wtf. Usually that only happens when I amusing AIM or MSN Messenger.

What makes this guy stupid? His bad grammar? In that case you're the stupid one for being elitist. For all you know he just started learning English and has problems typing.

Y'all should stop whining about grammar and start being a little more tolerant. It's annoying and doesn't contribute anything to the threads.

That is the exception, not the rule.

It's not elitism. It's a standard. And if someone is trying to learn a language, you would think they'd use words properly and not shorten them to 'u' or 'y' or 'r'. You can't learn a language like that.

You mean someone championing bad grammar has trouble with reading comprehension?

No! You don't say!
