You asked for advice on writing. You got it. The fact that this is a casual forum doesn't mean it's ok to post illiterate English. It's an unfortunate reality that illiteracy has to be tolerated on the Internet, because it's just too darned prolific to fight. But the fact of the matter is that one of the biggest favors you can do yourself in learning to write well is to learn to write properly. The criticism was meant to be constructive criticism, and you can either take it as constructive criticism and benefit from it, or become resentful and not benefit from it. It's an easy choice to make.
