I'm not a correct spelling nanny, but for the love of God,I wonder if many people here ever graduated from school. The spelling on this forum is ridiculous. I understand fat fingering a letter while posting from your phones of which I am guilty of sometimes. But too many times people are using words that sound the same but have the wrong meaning. As an example... how do you brake a window? or ask for advise?

I would recommend you "break" a window, and advise you to ask for advice.

Rant off

I would imagine the auto correct feature sometimes is guilty of that but not all of the time.

Don,
I'm as guilty as anyone , but as long as everyone gets what you're trying to say without to much trouble , why worry about it....Lifes to short , worry about things that really matter......WW

The OP is talking about maintaining a standard. Not the occasionally misspelled word in a lengthy post, but several in a short paragraph.
Comes down to people being too lazy in some cases. In others, just not caring. There are those who really are bad spellers.
A post like this is needed from time to time as a reminder. Something to worry about - no. But a timely post all the same.

It makes the poster look like an idiot...granted auto correct can play havoc sometimes, ffs go back and correct it.

With having 0 time before an edit is shown on a post I am extra careful on my spelling, it's embarrassing to have to edit due to grammar.

Awz hellz naw, u got to bees kidding me. Just playing. I agree with you sometimes, but sometimes we have the **** police also. I can see both sides of the story. I just go on Facebook to see how stupid people really are and to see how bad people really spell.

What's worse than the spelling on here is the fact that my battery schit the bed last night...

I think homonym is the term for that. I'm not up on the latest tech, but is it possible to voice text a post? The computer picks the spelling and the poster doesn't check it. Or, maybe it is that bad out there. Heck, nowadays there are high school grads that were never learned to read or write in cursive script.

For some reason, my pet peeve is that most people use "that" instead of "who".

Although I am guilty of it, I do have spell check on so it will underline misspelled words. It will not however do grammar. Such as their v. there and so on. Stop and read your post before you hit Submit Reply may help.
