Countless times on Yahoo Answers, I have seen people use "wont" (I intentionally missed the apostrophe) instead of "want", the all-too-common "there, their," and "they're" mix-up, and perhaps the one I hate most, using "then" in place of "than" and vice-versa. I hate it so much because in some cases there are so many grammatical errors present that it would be easier to translate Japanese than the grammatically-poor rubbish that morons use. And don't even get me started on bad spelling!
What do you think? Are there any other examples of terrible grammar that you have come across? And, more to the point, do you think that Yahoo should get more serious when it comes to deducting points for poor grammar/spelling (as I do)?
