Not really...just the people who try to use shorter words....some people call it IM writing...what ever it is its stupid....and the people who try to write like they talk...its annoying and makes them look illiterate.

I do if the person is intentionally spelling wrong. Like when they make up their own words like wot for what. But people who just naturally misspell a word don't really bother me. They may have a learning disability and can't help it. Know what I mean??
By the way-any words misspelled in this answer are purely unintentional and are not meant to be a pain to your backside in any way, shape or form!!! LOL!!!

Yes--particularly because a lot of people purposefully spell things wrong--like they are text messaging or something. They think it makes them look cute--it makes them look uneducated. Others spell things wrong like there and their---they need to pay better attention in school when that was taught. Or use a dictionary or spell check better. It isn't that hard.

Not really. As long as I can understand the point someone is trying to make, I am satisfied. Syntax is much more important to me, but even then I am forgiving. After all, only a small portion of the world has English as their first language. Even native speakers make mistakes from time to time. No one is perfect.
I am VERY annoyed by those who *intentionally* misspell words to follow stupid fads.

Yes, because it denotes ignorance which is a pain in the backside.

In my humble opinion, the internet is the leading cause of the decline of the English language and is leading to illiteracy, people tend to use nonsensical abbreviations and misspell words continuously.
They use numbers instead of using the real word, 2 for two, to and too, 4 for four, fore and for. which renders their questions meaningless.
Again, this just my opinion.

Sometimes its not bad spelling but a Typo. I do however find it RUDE when some on here think god made them teachers and its there job to correct others spelling.

It doesn't upset me enough to ask a question about..it's just one of those things...some people can spell others cannot. Some can't help it

no. what I find to be a pain is those that can't click on the little label that says "Check Spelling" thereby catching most of their spelling errors.

Yes. To me their posts look very ignorant. I'm not saying the person is ignorant..it just looks that way when everything is spelled wrong.
