I'm sure it isn't just you. I took an online class a few years ago and we had to critique the papers of other students. They were scary.
I could read whole papers and not find a single complete sentence. I complained to the prof. about it and he told me that it gets worse every year and generally if you comment to people about it they just get offended and act like you are judging them unfairly. I started giving feedback with opening lines such as "I feel offended that you expect me to read through this as a final copy." While it was fun, their writing didn't improve and everybody basically hated me.
