Just curious, why?

OpenStudy (muzzack):

Run-on Error Once you have formed a sentence (i.e., expressed a complete concept), you must put a full stop (or period ) or another valid ending (like ! or ?) and end the sentence. Do not insert a comma and continue writing. This is a very common mistake. It is known as a run-on error, a run-on comma, or a run-on sentence. For example: Pick up a copy of our free brochure, this explains how to contact us and reach our showroom. (This is two sentences. You cannot put a comma after brochure and carry on writing.) Everyone is aware of the road works in the village, we are still here, come and visit us. (This is three sentences. You cannot put a comma (after village and here in this case) and carry on writing.)
