The above can be considered an absolute term. If that's not generalising, I don't know what is. I, for one, DO speak proper English online (unless I'm in-game; I only type in proper sentences in-game on serious occasions) and I do post on the Facebook page as well. Apart from myself, I have seen some other people typing in proper English on the Facebook page.
I apologise for the simple mistakes within my post, I'm simply not that good at English. I may be generalising players. which i admit to, and i may be wrong, but the fact is that 99% of the players currently playing MapleSEA simply cannot speak proper English. Look at me for example.

In my opinion, I'm sure they are players who can actually speak proper English, and btw, it's 'proper' instead of 'properly'. Please do not generalize the players.
MapleSEA is dedicated to both Singapore and Malaysia players. You should know (I assume that you live in Singapore) that Singapore is a country where English is not the only language used for conversations. Also, Malaysia's official language is Malay.
As for me, I tend to speak with a mixture of slangs, Chinese and English language, etc. I always try my best to speak (or type, whatever it is) understandable English in the forums. Well, it's a game. Why so serious? lol.
I made a simple mistake within my post, I tend to do that quite often for some funny reason. Sure, i speak in Singlish too, which Singaporean doesn't? The main point I'm trying to put across is that players simply cannot converse with each other on an understandable level of English. Take for example, an excerpt from a sentence of a random player i was talking to just hours ago. " u humji dog no parent teach? Wuji come meet at xxxxxxx" .(We were training together at MP3 when a raider decided to target our map) Well for the benefit of those who don't understand the Chinese dialects, by calling someone "Humji", you are calling him a coward "Wuji" on the other hand, I do not understand. I agree that there are some people in MapleSea who can speak somewhat decent English like me, but they are few and far between among the throngs of kids who pick up the curses and vulgarities daily and put them into use. I apologise to anyone who is offended, but i still uphold my stand that most MapleSea players simply cannot speak proper English.
Here's something along the lines of what a normal person would say in Maple
