Why won't you please use spell check so we know what the question really means?

I agree, it is only common sense to use it.  Its also very easy to do.

I've asked this question.  Most people just don't care about their spelling, and they claim to be in too much of a hurry to use Spell Check.  They are idiots.

I think you don't know how to spell, try using the spell check next time.

Regrettably, many of us are more interested in our two points (thank you) than being serious.\n  \nFor the same reason as the class clown.\n\nFor the same reason, I guess, that so many people don't use spell check.

Okay - I'll answer your question if you promise to get spell check or learn how to spell.  Right above this box I'm typing in, it says to "check spelling."  There's a reason for that.  It's because I can't understand what you're saying.

I never use spell-checking because it doesn't detect problems like they're - there - their or who's - whose.  When I post or email something informally, like here, I reread what I have written very carefully before I hit the 'send' or 'post' button.  I probably make a mistake about once a year.\n\nWhen I write for work -- even if it's just an email -- I reread what I've written very, very carefully.  I probably make about a mistake a decade.\n\nOn the other hand, I regularly check words in the dictionary to make sure I've spelled and used them correctly.

Whatever you write, use a spellchecker.

Whoa, easy dear, it's called "Spell Check", perhaps you would like to click on it next time so we would understand your question and could offer our help by answering it :)

The problem is that people simply don't care about grammar and spelling.  If you don't care, you won't be bothered to use a spellchecker.  It's kind of a catch-22, because if you're a poor speller, you tend not to be bothered by (or even notice) poor spelling, and so you don't see the point in making an effort just for the benefit of others.  Most people I know who aren't naturally good at spelling and grammar will put the effort if it's for something "important" like a job inquiry, but apparently Yahoo! Answers doesn't qualify as important.  \n\nJeepDrivr has a point---many people (especially those who post questions in the Languages section) don't speak English as a first language, but those generally aren't the culprits.  It's actually pretty easy to tell when grammar and spelling errors are a result of unfamiliarity with the language and when they're just due to laziness.  \n\nAnyway, I sympathize with your frustration.  I take a stand by refusing to answer poorly written questions...I figure if they can't take the time to ask nicely, I won't take the time to answer. :)

It happens.  But the REAL question should be:  Do you take a person more seriously when they take the time to spell properly(and none of that netspeak like gr8 and ur), use proper grammar, and above all PUNCUATION?  I know I certainly do, and while I admit to making the occasional typo, I am more wont to give a sincere answer to a question that has been asked 'properly.'  On the flip side, if someone is barely literate I am more apt to give a sarky and sarcastic response.
