Get so fed up with the the 'know alls' on here that always love to criticise people's spelling, grammer and punctuation?! If you scrutinise their posts they actually make plenty of mistakes themselves!
I thought this forum was here for people to share their opinions on different issues not to make people too paranoid to post just in case they make a spelling mistake when trying to get a point across!
Give it a rest you Numpy's.

I'm sorry but I agree with Spongebob, people's grammar is woeful these days and I find it difficult to take some threads seriously when my eight year old daughter could do better!!

I think you missed the point here, it wasn't about bad grammar, it was about the fact that if someone has something interesting to say they shouldn't be put off by people that have a go because they've spelt something wrong etc.
You may be surprised to know that you don't have to be perfectly literate to be intelligent.
It would be so nice to just read people's opinions about things without having to put up with certain people picking holes in their sentences instead of agreeing/disagreeing with what they have to say.
I'm sure that Squidward will be most disappointed when his daughter starts using a mobile and starts texting the same way that all kids do nowadays, unless of course she isn't a normal child.
I get frustrated about these mistakes too but usually when I read it in a newspaper or receive official letters, I wouldn't pull people apart on here for it.

If your spelling is all to pot, your grammar is all over the place and your post is hards to understand first time round, it suggests your mind if a bit of a mess and your opinion is of little value. Of course, if you're drunk that's a valid excuse.

Off for spelling test and electricution lesson. Seriously though, give over. This is a fun forum for everyone. I know that sometimes, I, have been in a hurry to respond to a post, and made some awful bloomers. So what?
