I use poor sentence structure, ramble, and use these "..." a little to often, which is a no-no according to the Lounge rules. Not sure how my spelling is, I don't check it as often as I should... Why, I do not know. I am suprised that more people do not complain.

Doc, while your prose may not meet the William F. Buckley standard for lucidity, it reads like a conversation. If it came off as simple carelessness, or unapologetic sloppiness, you might catch more flak.
Consider also the "error rate" metric.
In a two sentence post, one would expect to find a low error rate, while with some of the long winded stuff you post, or the hurricaine-force-winded tripe I post, an error rate of a few in a thousand does not stand out.
