I think your icon says it all. I'd like to say it's a joke, but that's probably wishful thinking.

It's not a joke. The child* really wishes to help. That's the thing that really makes me do a double take at it.

"thanks u for ur coments. if i ned a stoopid beat, i will totaly call u. lol"

I think that would work just fine.

Or, if you are feeling charitable: "Thank you for your kind offer, but I am satisfied with my current betas, as they would never send me an email with netspeak, absurd kitten faces and three typos."

...absurd kitten faces

That's what those are? I thought they were garbage from an email program or something.

*boggles*

I think that's what they're supposed to be. Bizarre.

Thankfully, s/he is in a fandom where I just lurk now. But, god, if you're going to offer your services in a public venue, isn't normal to at least run a spell checker?
yes, I know I don't always spell check on lj, but if I catch it, I fix it.
