I understand that sometimes people are in a hurry, or just don't care whether others can read or understand what they are saying, but I have a hard time understanding why someone would take the time to ask a question and not even proofread what they have typed. I mean, the "Check Spelling" button is right next to the entry box. I can't believe it is all ignorance ... it seems there is a general lack of caring about the language and communication. Thoughts?

For the most part I think people think faster than they can type. I'm a perfectionist, so I will read my post over and over until it "sounds" legible.
However, keep in mind there are dyslexics, who really can't help it sometimes.
Then there are people that are in the 85 - 90 IQ range...

I try to stay on top of it.
I do use spell check.
I try to answer in way that is closest to the way I talk.
So there are times when I have to say deeze dem doze cause I grew up in New Jersey about 8 miles from NYC and that is how I talk when I get worked up.
I slip into JERSEYEZE.

I am SO happy someone else (and it appears quite a few of you agree) that it is irritating to see those posts where you have to try and interpret what they are asking before you can even answer...then you wonder if they can read and understand plain English!

I always think the same thing, if they can read they should see the Check Spelling. If their in a hurry why be on here answering questions. Its really annoying when some one asks a question and gets a reply that says, I Dunno. If you Dunno, move on to something you do know. Its not like your going to win a big prize for getting the most points.

Its not that people are ignorant, its that they are typos and people are in a hurry and maybe some people are just trying to get their two points and proof reading what they have typed is to much work and takes to long sometime depending how much you have typed.

I think most of that must be just kids playing...at least I hope so. I know that our schools have been on the decline for last 15 years or so but....and that is a big but.

I use the spell check and I still git bitched at.If you think you can spell better than spell check and Webster's, then give us the spelling.If you can't or wont I don't think you can spell either.

They don't ignore it- they just can't spell! And these are people that OWN computers! Beware- you are walking among idiots when you go out in public!

Ignorance is the rule today.
No need for school.
