It's difficult to opposed you but "limited forum" is not we could afford.
When I see a lot of mistakes, crude words in russian forums I always feel
myself uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I can't imagine how it looks for
english speaking people. Of course, there are simple misprints which could
be painlessly ommited, but I see nothing offending against correcting
gross mistakes. Usually, people just too busy to notice them.
