Default Re: When to use formal speech

Any thoughts about formal speech and informal speech on the internet. I find that a lot of 'misunderstandings' on forums come from people using more casual tones that can be read different ways.

Do you think we should encourage our students to use more formal speech when they are chatting or posting on forums?
