"But hey you are the experts and spelling counts more than and idea or member"

"Also, propper wording and spelling makes it easier for people from other nations who's second language is english, a lot easier to understand you.
The internet is often a place where words are cut down and the language is dumbed down, which sort of saddens me. "

"Well I'll admit in chat my spelling degrades somewhat because the conversation doesn't hold up while you proofread everything.

So if you don't tap out "I'da killed him" in response to a cousin's prank fast enough it comes out as a response to someone's newborn son."

"Side note: I accidentally hit the "Do you find this valuable?" thing on my own post, so it's actually only 2 people at this point, that number might change. I meant to hit DDMP's response with a yes, but I can't go back and correct it.

Again, nobody expects perfect English every time. Even those of us who are very good writers screw the literary pooch on occasion by being unclear, using the wrong words, or adding an improper comma here and there. I tend to overuse hyphens, and while I try to avoid it, I'm definitely guilty of it. I am usually very clear, if not a little verbose.

Some folks would be surprised how many times I will read and reread something I post. While writing, I will sit and think about what I'm writing to ensure clarity and cohesion, and believe it or not, I even occasionally use a thesaurus when there's a word on the tip of my tongue and I can't remember it. It's that *extra* little step that makes poor writing better, and good writing great."

"Having searched the site's simular to this one, I can conclude that there is none like it. Unlike youtube and far larger debate forums, this is a small, tight community.

I know you get complete dick heads but we definitely need to do all we can not to boo them off but to change them. Remember, most newbs when they come on here can't see why their plan will fail. before this site, I like my mates were convinced "raiding MoD Stafford" was a good course of action, til I joined the site. Now my whole mind set has changed!
