I'm a lot more tolerant on the Internet, if only for the fact that I have a bad habit of making typing mistakes myself and my punctuation is sloppy from time to time. Besides, forums are usually intended for informal banter anyway, so it shouldn't be an issue. It all depends on context for me. I cringe when people use the word 'then' in place of the preposition 'than' when the rest of their post is grammatically perfect with no spelling mistakes.
