While the underlying verb/tense/clause construction is fine (and quite advanced). I myself think anyone sensitive to language patterns will pick up on the bad-spelling-but-complex-sentences dissonance, on some level. And we have generally found that if people feel something is 'off' they get closed-minded pretty fast.
These are the things we were expressing in our comments to the last post on 'lilspeak'. That's makes us wonder whether the person is credible on many other issues: Sure, that goes back to 'you fake one thing, gotta wonder what else you're faking', but it's a true (and, I hope, understandable) 'fear'.
When you see someone writing with as much proficiency and flare as any great author, but consistently misspelling basic words, it puts us on edge.
