    Can we try and spell words correctly guys? This text style garbage wording and misspelled crap really bothers me, does anyone ever use a dictionary? I think the forum needs a spell check, what do you all think?

    I think that there a tremendous number of idiots in the world that have absolutely no idea how to communicate properly. No wonder America is scoffed at throughout the civilized world.

    Punctuation is important too. Even more so when you are calling out other folks for their grammatical inadequacy.

    And IIRC- There are spell check options for windows based machines...and Safari checks my spelling all the time...cause I need it.

    It's really not. A well formed argument/opinion/fact paper is a total package. If you want to "win friends and influence people" you can't expect to do it by saying "Use proper spelling" with no sentence structure.
    Proper grammar is proper grammar-There isn't a 1/2 way.

    There is also the "Spell and Let Mis-Spell" theory. You don't have to read poorly written posts...

    But you have to admit that it is far easier to tolerate a misplaced or missing comma, than a person who uses text language all the time or spells phonetically.

    I don't care either way. I spend the majority of time time in the "office" trying to decipher garbled radio transmissions from south Louisiana residents and Air Traffic folks from all over the place. So reading stuff that is all jacked up- I don't mind so much.
