Journal tekiegreg's Journal: What is the standard of grammar in Slashdot?

After getting an AC flame about my bad grammar in a post that I made, I have to ask, how well written should your posts be? My thought on that is "as long as we can understand it you're cool". Basically means the following:

1) Decent spelling
2) Decent phrasing of words (no nitipick on punctuation but we need to get the point)
3) Decent grammar (heavy language issues should consider getting some help)

After that I think you'll be ok. Will the post get you a D+ in a College level English class? Then it's good enough for Slashdot :-)
