I guess what I'm trying to say is, your profile is your first impression to others. Whether or not you are a good speller, you should spell check.

If'n they is hot pitcters then I reed ta' see if'n we's kin git to gether.

Pitchers r wurth more then wurds anyways.smokin

I won't even bother with profiles where it looks like someone rolled their forehead all over the keyboard and called it good. I also tend to get really annoyed by messages sent to me in the exact same way. If you have no interest in making yourself understood, then I have no interest in trying to make sense of any of it.

As far as spelling goes as long as I can decipher what they are saying then what is the big issue about..To me if ones judge others totally on how they spell they will miss out on who that person really is.

I have known those with a much higher education then me that spelling is not their best asset so what they can't spell good... It does not make them any less of a person..

And sure the heck does not mean that those that spell better is better then they are... whoa
i agree 100% my friend and i notice sometimes the ones that can spell ,like really well or think they can spell really well they always criticize, in almost every forum 1 time or another about punctuation lolll and just go in the forums i think looking to criticize about peoples spelling or about their profile lolllll its just so sad they need to get a life and if they don't like that persons spelling or punctuation then move on , i mean theres people from around the world on here,no 1 is going to go and look for a spell check if they can't even hardly speak English :)lolllllrofl Thats just to funny and maybe them good spellers have nothing else their good at, you never know:) you start to wonder cause always the same talk every day hahaha flowerforyou :):thumbsup: cheers :)

If you don't want to use punctuation, that's your choice. There's nothing wrong with wanting to be able to read other people's writing easily, though.

And of course people who don't speak English as well will use spell check. I work for an international company. English is not everyone's first language and most people absolutely use spell check. Why wouldn't they?

ummmmmmmmmmmmmm good then they are all using it on here right? nope lolllll you said they would use it but they are not:) and as for me sometimes i use punctuation and sometimes i don't depends what mood i am in or how i am feeling:)i never said theres nothing wrong wanting to read someones writing ,if you read correct i said people just go in the forums i think looking to criticize about peoples spelling or about their profile..theres a difference, ok if someone makes a mistake and someone talks private to them thats ok ... but then theres the people who just love to criticize different people before they even know the person or judge that person ,what i call really sad people that have their nose up in the air lollll or another word snobs think they are Gods gift to spelling or think they are ,better then anyone else, but really i think they are shallow and have no respect or caring cause they already judged the person by a profile or by the way a person typed :) in my opinion i would rather talk to the person who cannot type good then the snob laugh biggrin :thumbsup:

If you think someone is a snob because they want to be able to understand what someone else is saying, have at it. You just said that you choose to use punctuation sometimes and don't at times. That is your choice to make what you're writing harder to read. Of course, that is a choice that is yours to make.

I can't speak for others, but I don't think I'm better than anyone else. I just prefer to be able to understand what people are saying. You talk about respect, but calling others snobs isn't very respectful either.

So anyway, write however you want. Just don't get upset when others choose not to read it if it's tough to follow.

I just wanted to find out everyones' opinion when viewing someone's profile and there are multiple misspelled words, especially when their profession says something like "civil engineer" or "government" etc. You would think they should of a higher education caliber.


Poor choice of profession to quote, Tami-Tami. Engineers are incredibly infamous for their inability to spell.

In fact, there is a standing joke,

"When I first went to university, I did not know how to spell 'engineer', and now I are one."

My brother has a masters of engineering degree and he makes seven spelling mistakes in every sentence he utters in conversations on the phone.

Then don't get so defensive. No one singled you out. You singled yourself out. Type the way you want to type. We all have different preferences. If you make it hard to read on purpose, by choosing not to use punctuation, that is your choice and no one else's.

DAMN!!!! Seems like everyone except you even get the point I was trying to make. In corresponding via text, email, chat etc, sure, we all make spelling errors. Although I do try not to, but sometimes my fingers hit the wrong key and I hit send before I notice it. I was saying, in your profile, where you have the time to get it right, you should. This is MY opinion, and only an opinion, which everyone is entitled to theirs. I also hate messages with no punctuation. Again, my opinion.

I try not to read messages without punctuation. It can be confusing and you have to take time to figure it out.

Exactly. Example: "Let's eat Grandma" vs "Let's eat, Grandma". lol
