u know, not may people are intrested on misspellings, aslong as the others are able to understand what u'r saying.
(believe me, I have enough of that with my English teacher, I don't need it here).
good point by the way Drew:)

Apparently you do not "have enough of that with (from)" your school teacher.
English both written and spoken can be a powerful and expressive tool. Ineptitude in either skill quickly highlights one's ignorance and often leaves even the best of ideas unconsidered by others. Take note that the most foolish thing a person can do is to broadcast his ignorance.
For what it's worth, pay attention to your English teacher. What you learn from him/her may keep you out of remedial classes should you ever pursue post-secondary education.

Only the spell geeks will object to this. I would really love it if no one would put down other people about grammar, spelling, English both written and spoken, and by so doing showing off their own "considerable" skills. In the culture of today, TV, email, and chat has condensed our language into abbreviations, flashed quickly and in rapid succesion at us. We're forced to absorb them at an abnormal rate. Don't blame anyone's teachers or even the person themselves for mistakes because in actuality they are not mistakes, they are readjusting to the way all language is communicated instantaneously. So just drop it Drew, slugthog, Filbert, asterisk and so on. Please?Ben(SA)

I have lived through a considerable change in this dynamic English language. Enough that I can recognize the difference between abbreviation and sloth.
Illiteracy and innumeracy are two of the worst plagues on contemporary English usage. Misspellings, abbreviaton and jargon are perhaps appropriate for online chat or playground banter but the are not particularly effective styles for communicating ideas in a public forum.
I do not chasten for typographical errors , for abreviation and seldom for misspelling. I am often enough victim to all three
I think that the English language is a wonderful tool in any guise but when it is necessary for me to read a sentence three or even four times in order to dredge from it the writer's intent then that writer has failed in his task. He has _not_ communicated. When his failure is apparently the result of sloth, laziness or ignorance, if I feel that the venue is appropriate and if I am in a particularly pedgagical mood, I will offer advice. Advice such as use a dictionary or proof what you have written before you post it. I do this primarily because I do not enjoy performing another's task for him, i.e. making sense of his intent.
My advice to you is that you perform a disservice when you champion another's ignorance.

@cadc. It is not "I thought I let you know," it is "I thought I'd let you know."
