And yet you still do it. Let me explain something to you:\n\nI can't understand a damn thing that you're typing when your grammar is so utterly atrocious.

It drives me insane, particularly on here. There is a thing called spell check that people seem to have difficulty finding. When chatting it is a little more acceptable, not much but a little, because there isn't the convenience of spell check. What's worse is when you correct someone or mention they utilize the spell checker in any context the person asking the question becomes highly offended. For anyone offended by my response now I am going to show you how easy it was to make sure everything was spelled accurately because I had left a few mistakes intentionally. Now watch. Wow, took me 10 seconds to fix all of my mistakes.

Are you sure you spelled it correctly?

I hear you, lot of people cant spell for crap.  I'm assuming you spelled grammar wrong on purpose just to make a point.

Yeah, people don't know how to spell anymore.\n\nOr, should I say, peepel dont no how too spell n e more.

I don't know. Maybe that's because they think people should be able to understand them. Personally, I only shorten laughing out loud, you know, lol, or curses "WTF?" If I'm responding to someone who contacts me, I shorten because to b/c, with to w/, an without to w/out because there are only so many characters you can use. These type of abbreviations are okay on question since there is also a limit of characters. However, I think there are some people who just don't realize there's a "check spelling" right there. It's amazing to see how many totally illiterate people there are out there.

LOL! I hear you. It is very annoying. And you're right, those people who pick at spelling mistakes are extremely annoying. No one's perfect.\nHave a nice day!

People feel like it is thier job to be grammar police.  I am all for spelling correctly, but in a forum like this - I don't think it matters.

I'd put it differently. If it is so easy to check spelling, by clicking on the "Check spelling" link, and so many people keep sending messages with so many spellings mistakes, we should assume they are doing it on purpose.\n\nLanguage is a way of identification. People ARE the way they speak (and write). I am not a native English speaker, and when I started learning the language, I chose the British spelling and vocabulary (you know: colour, realise, lorry...). Others choose to write "U" instead of "you", "R" instead of "are". That is what they ARE, and I think you should respect that, and not dismiss their input because you don't like what it looks like. I don't mean you have to agree or do the same, but just respect them, and accept them as they are. After all, they are not killing anyone by their spelling.\n\nUnless the spelling is so different that it is really impossible for you to understand it, I think that consideration for the others deserves that you take the trouble to try to understand them, and not dismiss them for their spelling.\n\nAnd what about those who haven't been lucky enough to go to school and learn to speak "properly"? If they say to you "I ain't nothing to eat" will you feed them, or tell them off for not using the so-called "right" words? And who says "I haven't got" is right and "I ain't" isn't? Who set the rules, and on what grounds? My answer: The establishment sets the rules, so they can dismiss the poor, as bad speakers, instead of listening to what they say. Do you see a pattern here? You're doing the same!\n\nIt is not the package that matters. It's the content. Look inside the package and respond to the content, with the best answer you can.\n\nNow, I'll run the spellcheck and post the message for you.

This was actually the first question I asked when I started visiting because I was appalled at the spelling also. Then I realized that most people use shorthand spelling for text messaging and really have gotten lazy about it. Either that all they're all idiots. I've pretty much gotten used to the ignorance level and try to stay above it. Good luck to you!

I do understand what you're trying to say, and I do not usually try to make a big deal out of the grammar and spelling mistakes of others.  However, I do get very annoyed when I am trying to read a post that is written so poorly that I have to read the words more than once to try and figure out what the person is saying.  There is also a spell check on this board, so there really is no reason for misspelled words.  Now, punctuation is a whole different story, I suppose.  In either case though, there is still no reason for someone to be mean about it or to make fun of someone for it, even if it is extremely annoying.

Lol u are right it drives me round the bend people have ago at my spelling sometime, but I can't help it coz I'm dyslexic, some peoples first language is English to and there is no spell check there. I dunno how they don't notice that. Sometimes I do type my questions in Microsoft word do a spell check and copy and past it, but sometimes I can't be bothered with that.

Great idea..Notwithstanding,that I doubt that anyone will be "willing" to correct the spelling,to seek for the right explanation .Maybe they(not offensive) stick to their slang and others merely suffer from illiteracy..
