In this very useful topic, I will teach you all how to make a good, respectable post!
First of all, if you're going to state a fact, have some reliable resources such as official websites. If your statement doesn't have any proof to show that it's true, it's what we all call a rumor.
Secondly, if you haven't passed middle school yet, you probably don't know how to spell half the words in the English dictionary. This is what Google & Wikipedia is for. Having troubles spelling a word? Google it! 9 times out of 10, it'll give you the correct spelling of the word!
Having trouble with words that you don't understand, or were you just insulted and have no idea what they said or meant? No problem! Type in Google: Define: (Word). (This is the best solution! However, if Google doesn't workout for the definition, try to go to Wikipedia, or other dictionary websites.)
Spell check spell check spell check! There's a reason why most browsers have spell check already added into them. For instance, if you're using Firefox and you misspelled a word, it will become underlined in a squiggly red line! Nobody likes to read a thread that looks like a 9 year old typed it.
And lastly, Please Do Not Type Like This. It Is Very Annoying And I don't Know How It Started. It's a terrible habit if you do it, and you are a disgrace to the community if you do it. It makes you look like a 10 year old who hasn't passed basic English capitalization yet. The only time you capitalize the first letter in every word is if it's the title.
Also, remember, read over your post before submitting it. It might sound great in your head, and while you're typing it you left out some words making it look like scribble scrabble.
That is all. I hope you learned something new today and will take my advice.
Spoiler for TL;DR

Stop posting as if you're in elementary school. And even if you are in elementary school, start posting at a high school / college level. If you can't do that, refrain from posting.
