I emailed this post seeing what the project was and never got a response. Apparently he didn't need my help and found someone else. I find a response would have been nice, but oh well...
If you're going to present yourself with such poor grammar, you don't deserve to be helped. It completely changes how you come off to other people. If this showed that the person in need of help had any grasp of punctuation, capitalization, or syntax, then he or she would seem like the kind of person I would want to help.
I very much agree with Hannah. My first reaction to this post was that, if the author intended a professional transaction, there was absolutely no way they would be getting one. Correcting simple grammar issues (which wouldn't take much time for a post of this size), and perhaps adding a few more details would have definitely added more credibility to this post and possibly given it more responses.
