Well i dont talk how i type, but i do talk in more of a london slang accent.
I live in the East End of London, I went to what was called a 'Community School' which basically meant a dump. In my class there were 3 white people out of 30 students......we didn't get into the deeper grammatical structure of the English language as we were too busy covering the basics of the English language for the 15 children in the class whose first language was not English.
When I started on the internet about 10 years ago my lack of written English was an embarasment to me. So I did an 'A' Level at night school and got a few books to read. It is the only way to truly improve yourself. I know the poster earlier was being a bit obnoxious but he was correct. Get a tutor. It needn't be a private tutor and 'A' Level courses at colleges are common enough and easy enough to enrol on.

It is not fine grammatically.
It is a run-on sentence. What is called a comma fault. There are three seperate sentences here. *it* is the object of the first verb *help*. *I* is the subject of the second verb *rude* and *help* is the subject of the last verb *thanks*.
"Well I guess it does help. Sorry if I sounded a little rude earlier. Thanks for the help."
To make it two sentences you need a coordinate conjunction.
"Well I guess it does help. Sorry if I sounded a little rude earlier, and thanks for the help."
That would be grammatically correct. It is NOT the only way to write the sentence. This would also be correct.
"Well I guess it does help, and sorry if I sounded a little rude earlier. Thanks for the help."
Run-on sentences are not the easiest to spot, but think of the structure of a sentence. Look for the groupings and if you have too many without a coordinate conjunction (comma followed by and, or etc) then re-write the sentence with a fullstop.
My grammar is fine, my spelling is, however, atrocious. I correct this by typing into a word document with a decent spell check before posting anything.
My grammar is fine, my spelling is, however, atrocious. I correct this by typing into a word document with a decent spell check before posting anything.
Again it is the same comma fault as above. "My grammer is fine, but my spelling is atrocious." Would be a grammatically correct way to write this sentence. Or you could have written "My grammer is fine; however, my spelling is atrocious." Which would also be correct.
Sentence run-ons and sentence fragments are probably the most common errors in grammar in the English language.

Well i currently go to university so i can probably get a course there, or maybe do a night course like you...., but they usually ask for BB in GCSE to do and english A-level when i only have a CC
and i went to crown woods if you have ever heard of it, was a crappy school.

Yeah that is what I have started doing as well, I think I have become too reliant on word to do my school work so that is probably one of the reasons why my spelling has not improved

I do not know what University you are at, but my University runs its own free English Language course. While a lot of what they do is for foreign students to get a grip on the English language the people running the course are well educated in the English language and I am sure that if your Uni does something similar you could go to those lessons and seek out their knowledge on grammar.
