I especially like the random punctuation of Do Not. Do they mean to emphasize it more, where all caps would have worked better? I guess not much thought went into this at all. Perhaps a lot of thought was put into it, and this was the best that the author could do.
Please Do Not put tampons in the toilet please, because it stops them up. Thanks Mgrs.

“Do” and “Not” are not supposed to be capitalized. There is an obvious run-on sentence. Also the word “them” is vague and an incorrect reference. The word “please” is also misplaced.

Please Do Not put tampons in the toilet; it stops them up. Thanks Mgrs.

We see the “Do” and “Not” are still capitalized. There is a semi-correct use of the semi-colon, although it could have easily been fixed without using a punctuation mark that is rarely used properly. On top of that, the vague word “them” is still awkward.

In this correction, “do not” are not capitalized, there is the word “because” to join the two sentences previously joined by punctuation marks. Also, the word “stops” is replaced with “clogs”. The use of the word “stops” may also work in this case. However, I have replaced it with the more specific term “clogs”. “Them” is replaced with “the toilets” to fix the vague pronoun issue.
You never know when a purple crayon will come in handy—1001 uses, I guess.
The “them” should also be changed to “it,” unless the tampons are what’s getting stopped up…
should ’stops’ also be changed to ‘blocks’?
as in it blocks them up
“Tampons” is plural, so should it be “they”?
…it could be the action of “putting tampons in the toilet” that’s being referred to as “it”…
It’s actually perfectly valid to include the “because”; ie. “Please do not put tampons in the toilet because they stop them up.”
However, there is also a mistake in referring to multiple tampons, but only using “it” in “it stops them up”.
What’s the fail here?
Is there two?
“Please because”?
Or “it stops them up”?
Or maybe three.
All the tampons are doing is clogging them.
Which is what they’re made for.
Keeping something from flowing.
Why is everyone blaming the tampons!!!………..It’s not their fault.
Leave them alone!!!!!

How dare they tell me where to put my tampons!

Couldn’t the sentence also be “they stop it up”… because tampons is plural but toilet isn’t.

‘It’ can be used if it refers to an act of putting tampons in the toilet
But youre supposed to flush tampons, they are made to disolve…lol.

And yet in your in depth analysis, you still left a dangling preposition.
