Why is it that Yahoo is nice enough to supply a spell checker, so many people type Q&A's that are misspelled?

Answer 1

Low IQs or they don`t have experience using a computer? My guess is that they are too lazy to use the spellchecker and could care less. So much for the American education system as is displayed on Yahoo! Answers; over 30% of questions and answers have serious mistakes in grammar and spelling.

Answer 2

I happen to be handicap and have a hard time typing. Your lucky to be able to type and do it right. My fingers don't always hit the right keys. Sometimes if I'm tired my fingers go astray and it looks like I'm typing in martian.
The corrector won't even work right, so, the corrector works for me thank you "answers"

Answer 3

For a few different reasons...most people are in a hurry these days or they do not know how to use a computer to its fullest. I have always thought if I can read it why worry??? As long as they get their message across. Just remember this goes to many different countries and who's to say we are right and they are wrong. Isn't there more important things to worry about???

Answer 4

LOL! Good one! I try to use it but sometimes I forget to. Those misspellings are because of lousy typing though!.

** I used spell check on this, and it wants me to change LOL!

If it appears I am messing with you, I'm sorry. I was trying for sarcastic wit, as you displayed!

Answer 5

One of the reasons, I think, is concerned with decent, readable and understandable questions and answers and they denote high quality of literacy to Yahoo members worldwide as well.

Answer 6

it just corrects the word you spell it doesn't correct the words used in the wrong places. don't you wish they had a sentence corrector

Answer 7

hahahahaha! because ppl are just too busy or always in a hurry, i guess...

Answer 8

people are too inpatient and won't use it, wish they did
