I'm chiming in on this one too. My father once looked at a primary school composition of mine and said "Don't you get taught how to spell". He added a few adjectives that the moderator would not approve of on IIS. I looked at him blankly and he asked me why we were not taught spelling or grammAr. I relayed the question to my sixth class teacher. She told me that it was all about freedom of speech. I relayed that to my father, to which he replied "How the (moderator) can you speak freely if you cannot (moderator) speak properly in the first place". Of course his actual manner of speaking was again a little too forceful for the moderators, but I have obviously remembered the occassion quite clearly.
