People whinging about spelling are mainly directly at the *very* poor spellers. One wrong here and there is common error, but its the persons *cough*playworth*cough* etc that spell every second word wrong that appear to peeve everyone off, plus incoherent grammar.

If you are intelligent enough to use a computer you should be intelligent enough to spell. At the very least, posses the cognitive ability to learn from your mistakes.

Spellcheck. If you don't know how to use spellcheck, use Firefox. If you don't know how to use Firefox, then there is no hope for you :)

No intelligence needed to use a computer, pre schoolers use them.

Plane crash = Pilot error
Car crash = Driver error
Spelling mistake = faulty computer...

Agree with you mate, im starting to feel that there are a lot of people on this forum who live to point out others errors due to the lack of any activity in their own sad lives. If i wanted an online spelling tutor id look elsewhere.
