Not to mention that pretty much all of the current grammar rules are the result of old rules being broken often and consistently enough that they either changed or vanished.
Language changes as it's being used, that's just the way things are. Using it's instead of "it is" in any form writing used to be unacceptable, today it's practically the norm. At least where I live, and in informal contexts like a forum post.
