Unless you think it is important to be able to use the language of the 
country you live in.  If not, perhaps it would be better to switch to ebonics 
or slanguage or the like.
Unfortunately these communications can be the first impression one has of a 
listmate  Writing in a sloppy manner can convey a message that the author 
doesn't care about the impression he is making.

Just meandering,
