...or doesn't need to tout their own superiority by gratuitously pointing out somebody else's faults. Spelling/grammar Nazis, take note.
If all you wanted to do was correct him/her, PMs are fine. If you truly couldn't understand, that's another matter. But obviously, you did understand.
I edited professionally for 20 years, and I _don't_ go around correcting posting grammar. It's the world; if people can communicate, that's good enough.
You can "expect" anything you want as a standard level of grammar or spelling, but that's your expectation, and it has no force of law. Any good linguist will tell you that language is made in the street, not in the dusty offices of grammarians.
I'm a bit disappointed in some of you. But then, that's according to _my_ expectations.
