Ironically i did use the spell checker... and the only real reason i wrote the question was just to point out how hard it is to even understand what people are trying to ask on this site, not start ww3, but if you want to play it that way, then thats up to your petty selves

They don't really care about the answer....They are in way too much of a hurry.

Heh, even before reading your comment I guessed you intended to allow "grmmatically", though you might have used "sppeled" instead, since the mistake was, after all, spelling, though I do like "do people...not speak english because..." as an example of subpar grammer ;-)
Anyway, my opinion is that most people are here asking questions because they don't know the answers. This statement seems obvious enough to be pedantic, but it implies that these askers are less capable than the answerers; otherwise, there'd be no point in asking us. In this light, it might be best to realize that you can't hold everyone to the same standards you hold yourself without being disappointed, as you are now.

grammatically - well when i used the spell checker and spelt this word like you did "grmmatically" it says it is wrong, but i get your point. some people get on here and are in a crappy mood so then they have to be rude to others on line. so someone miss spelled a wor, so what. some people may miss a letter or finger fudge a word. no one is freaking perfect.

Well... your title may be correct however your question itself is flawed in typos and grammar.
"do people on this site not speak english" should be "do people on this site not know how to speak English" Since of course, English is being used as a proper noun and should be capitalized along with the fact that "not speak" sounds like something a 3 yr old would say.
grmmatically should be grammatically
And your final sentence shouldn't end with an elips as you completed your thought.

Hey Morris3145, when you say "Our President" I assume you are American? I wasn't aware we had a President here in the U.K. Why do you Yanks always assume you are the only ones on here!
P.S.
Hey lollipopgrl, that wasn't such a bad question, considering we have a spell checker on here some of the questions are quite abysmal. Don't be daunted, keep on asking!

Most are simply young juveniles with nothing better to do than stop the rest of us from enjoying this site.They could care less if they use good grammer or not.Sad commentary actually and one that most young people wrongly get included in.
They are so intelligent that they don't realize they are costing themselves points by asking stupid question...and as a matter of fact probably do not care for points anyway.

It's very interesting that you refer to grammar (which incidentally you can't spell which is quite amazing given that there is a spelling checker available). What about using full stops at the end of sentences (which you didn't do). If you are going to be critical of others - take a look at yourself first.

Simple answer! It's all down to text messages and instant messengers!!! Since the invention of these means of communication, general spelling and grammar has reached an all time low. I blame the parents!
Also I think it may be due to the internet now being accessible to all, so walks of life who weren't usually seen or heard now have a voice. (albeit incoherent)

I feel your pain, though. I get very frustrated with the incorrect English being used around here. What's most clear to me is that we have lost the art of communication. It doesn't necessarily mean that everything be "correct" - because grammar is always in transition - but communication needs to be clear and understandable.

Wonder no more. Truth is that we are all so different that we may not even agree on what a proper question is. So learn to take the good with the bad.

Obviously a wind up question, as the old saying goes .. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
Check your own use of language before ridiculing others.
