What do you think the spelling abilities of the forumers tells us?

Being able to spell and write and all that happy mumbo jumbo IS IN FACT important. You SHOULD care. If you don't care, then don't expect to get a job over a $20,000 salary.
nicely said. however, the reason why i don't really care on spelling or whatever is because as of now i am not facing any 20k salary and if its just onine with some friends then it probably isn't 100% important to be using all the grammar that we learned in elementary school. i know the knowledge, and when it is time to get serious i will get serious and do all the right things; gotta cherish those young adult moments, eh.

Didn't you say this thread was not intended to hurt, but help. God, what a freaking lie. Nubli just blatantly insulted those who can't spell and you backed him up. So now it's time to insult you again. Umm...Kellard...you...are........fat!*Runs away* Rolleyes

Lol...you remind me of someone when you do that. Sad They didn't call me fat, though.. they called me squishy... but they meant fat. and always did that little innocent looking-around face, too... "Ahh, precious memorias del verano pasado." As someone famous once said. Smile I must now go sulk. Now I'm sad.

Well yes spelling is important but seems to be forgotten in this thread that English isn't the first language for everyone around here. For me English is a distant third language and my English skills wont have any effect on my salary.
Then again the more languages you master the better chance you have of getting a decent job.

Kellard Wrote:Let's pretend you numbskulls read the last page and STOP FLAMING. Stay on topic for God's sake. And yes, idiotic spelling does make you stupid, not lazy. Lazy people can still spell, they just don't punctuate. Bad spellers use the same amount of letters, roughly, but they can't seem to get the right ones, or get them in the right order. l337 and typos are different, I said that. I also said that spelling matters. Why would I say this? Well, children, because it is a good indicator of how smart you people are. Now why would I give a shit about that? Because you're gamers and forumers. I'm also a gamer and a forumer. You make people who have an IQ over 17 look bad because they are grouped with you in the web junky catagory. What language are you typing in? English. Try to learn it. It helps.
I partially dissagree. Bad grammar and spelling isnt so bad,, nobody learns English in 1 day. Personally my English was realy bad when I first started hanging on forums,, and as a result of 14 years of active posting my English has improved and I still learn more as I go. My point is if someones English skills are bad why resort to flaming instead of encorageing him/her to learn.
If perfect spelling and grammar is so important why not restrict the forums to Americans only and raise the age restriction.

Then there is the so called leet speak,, now this is something that should be avoided at least on forums,, leave that in the chat rooms and games.

You sniff glue... maybe one day you will die. The world could do without another pothead.

I don't get why people don't use proper spelling, I'm a writer and I dont spell 100% correctly, but if you can try and make thing's slightly more understandable that would be nice.


Oh, and Spikes good point I never thought that some one here could be speaking english as a second language.

Wow, this almost makes me want to back track on my previous stance and agree with Kellard. But I'd rather keep him crying. Confusedmartass2

I resent this, as I have yet to reach the age of 50 and yet I can spell 99.9% correctly (always room for improvement I think) besides I really didn't want to spend the rest of my life asking "Would you like fries with that?"

Also speech is not spelled speash...(see above statement)!
