Haha. I got a D, with four out of ten questions correct (I was actually trying). Then, to further rub salt in my wounds, the test sends me this FAIL message:
"Your English mistakes aren't exactly forgivable. They're downright embarrassing. It's time to hit the books. There are many grammar rules that you need to memorize. Your writing comes off as illiterate, and your improper education is rearing its ugly head. For your friends' sakes, polish things up a bit. Then they'll be proud to show their friends your words."
No flaming...be civil, even if you disagree strongly with what someone says. Don't post in anger, heated words only incite more flames, and then civil discourse--and thoughtful insight--are completely lost.
Proofread! Remember that this is an element of your AP English class, so proper grammar, spelling and punctuation are the bare minimum that is expected of you. Yes, you are graded on your contributions to the blog. Make it good.
Keep short comments to a necessary minimum. This is not your myspace page, it is not a place for you to chat with your friends. Your posts should offer a new thought or idea to everyone in the group, if you don't have anything to add, don't post. If you never have any new thoughts or ideas, you may be in the wrong class.
Sign your real name (or commonly known nickname) to all posts. Any anonymous postings or comments will be deleted.

One-hundred percent on one try. I wish I could do the same on all my other tests and quizzes.
100% even though i make some "its it's" errors in cw... 0_o
It's always easier to catch other people's errors than your own. That's why I have you working in groups, to PROOFREAD for each other.

Good job Lane. I'm so proud of you.
10/10 Makes me feel a little better about myself, although not quite enough.
This seems reminiscent of my post on the grammar blog...
