I think the grammar language issues can be broken down into two subsections

1) Age/Education - categorised by "belthazor" above, missing capitalisation, missing apostrophes are key indicators, textspeak/l33tspeak are others.

2) English as a second language (perhaps modified by age) which I think would be categorised by the "tank in turmoil". This shows a good grasp of English but lack of experience in communicating with native speaksers. This has casused some sentence structuring issues and words replaced by similarly sounding words. For example "want should I do?" which does have punctuation but has "what" replaced by "want".

TL:DR I think "tank in turmoil" doesn't speak English natively so shouldn't be judged by that letter as it's better than anything most of us could do in foreign langauges
