I recently had a rant on our local FreeCycle explaining that I'd not consider any of the Wanted posts if they didn't have capital letters and punctuation - nor would I dispose of any of my Offered items to anyone who couldn't be arsed to use English.
Got a swarm of emails from like minded FreeCyclers.
