If it's written down, it *becomes* a writing style, so my comments above would still apply. You may well have a different writing style when you're writing formally, though. I think many if not most of us who post on electronic forums adopt a more conversational tone unless we're posting an essay-type thing, and especially when we're posting in a back-and-forth sort of exchange.
