god, spelling and grammar on this site is outrageously poor

i generally CAN'T STAND people with poor spelling/grammar (more grammar), but i don't bother on ns

some things i hate:

there vs. their vs. they're
skis vs. skies
"jibberish" aghhhhhh it's fucking jiberish! one b!
your vs. you're

i don't know, so many others i can't think of right now. but every time i see these, i literally cringe.

i am pretty unconcerned about this. i mean its the internet. its going to happen. im not going to take the amount of effort to make everything perfect like i would if i was writing a paper or something. just as long as its legible i hate when you can't even read someones post because the grammer is so bad.

Hmm... quite a bit of hate, on a subject that doesn't really matter.  I agree that the better the spelling and grammer of a comment, the more legit, and the more intelligent it sounds.  Thus people listen to it more, so if you take the time to work on a comment and use proper language, you get the reaction you want and sound better, if you don't, no one listens anyways.  Make your choice sound intelligent or don't, but i really don't care.  Everyone can do what they want.

heal / heel:

A wound eventually heals.
Heel lift, as in poorly fitting boots.

Also sponcer / sponser / sponsor.

And their / there / they're off :-).

There are also people on here who don't live in an English speaking country... Grammar/spelling in a foreign language can be pretty difficult you know.

yeah, ok, but still alot of foreign kids might not be as good as you (including myself ...)

Although i've seen some of the most outrageous spelling errors come from some american kids :D
