Well, it's entirely dependent on the error, what the person is saying, and what I'm doing. If somebody is clearly going to post the same thing over and over again, such as guild recruitment spam, I may be more likely to correct them. Who wants somebody advertising their guild poorly?

I have no problem with the occasional typo though, whether it be a case of your, or rouge, or anything like that, but if I see it being repeatedly mis-used, then I might gently correct the other person.

However, there's no reason to be hostile about it, as hostility won't likely do anything except get the other person angry and likely to ignore you.

And the people who object to "pst me" are just being idiots.
