can you explain how that helps me read what other people spew out as actual english language?

You have to admit, someone with bad grammar skills getting mad at people who can't spell is humorous :D

Because if they use Chrome they can fix their typos before even posting? Not sure what you are getting at here. Also a lot of the other community forum members post here and use translations, while that would provide correct spelling it would be incorrect grammar a lot of the time. But it doesn't bother me.

What bothers me is when people misuse a word that sounds like another, such as Leach and Leech, drives me nuts lol.

Its like when people say "I red a book", red? READ. or "Oo nice draws" its drawers!

I think viion brings up a good point about people who's primary language is not English. Also, there are probably a decent amount of kids on here as well. That and some people are in a hurry to post and can't type that well :D

I for one am disturbed at the amount of people that use "loose" instead of "lose". Even my statistics teacher did that today, lol. That and "to", "too", and "two" are commonly misused. /pet peeve off

spelling and knowing the difference between 2 completely different words are two totally different things

Oh nos, I just knew this was going to happen sooner or later.

I could give two poops about how people type just as long as I I understand them. I'm not here to be anyone's English teacher.

Edit for spelling and Grammar. ;P

In this thread, I see people complaining about others' spelling and grammar. Some of which (who, whom, IDC), have grammatical errors in their posts. (was that not even a full sentence?)

Just saying, let it go.
