I find it really frustrating trying to decipher messages that are so incoherent that you can't understand much of what the author means. Does it irritate anyone else?
Don't get me wrong, I don't mean it in a snobby way, but more as a suggestion. I know that bad spelling & dyslexia are not a sign of a persons IQ! It is easy enough to spell things wrong if you are tired or rushing, but some of the spelling that crops up is ridiculous. Of course, it CAN be highly amusing, but I'm sure the person who wrote the message or forum etc. may not appreciate the fact that they are the cause of my laugh for the day! Lol... comfort teddy bear
Spell checkers are easy & quick to use, if English is your first language there should be no problem. Should there???. dunno

If a guy can't figure out how to use the English language, or just the spell checker - why bother even reading it? Delete is easy.

Word to the wise, guys - it's called spellchecker and there are dictionaries on the internet, now. You don't want to be confused with some foreign scammer looking for money...

spell check is often wrong
many many pl here dont speak english as first language
i have neuro damage
i am often dyslexic now when writing
or just wrong because of it (hear for here etc)

i used to take forever to revise and make posts and etc perfect
for me that i dont anymore means i have more self acceptance

also i have seen new members ridiculed here almost as soon as their first post-and they were never seen again-
i think that sux...the more the merrier i say

also members that join complaining dont seem fun either
