Know and no are two different words. Cud does not mean could. Don does not mean don't. Spelling things like a retard does not make you cool, it makes you a retard. Spelling mistakes are not Ebonics, they are spelling mistakes. Spelling like a retard does not make you ghetto, your parents made sacrifices to give you a good education lots of less off people wish they could have, use it.

I here by give mods the power to close threads where the first post is spelt so poorly you have to double take to understand what it means even though the author is over the age of 14 and lives in an English speaking country.

If you really have trouble with your spelling, either use a word processor or if you dont have one, use SpellCheck.net

too, to, and two are each very different things, as are your, you're, there, their, and they're.

And ur was never used to shorten you're, it's your, and just reads dumb if used for you're. You're can be shortened only to u're, not ur.

well ur could be used for shortening you are...probably should have a space tho :thumb: sure i've had this argument before with someone...
 
you're not a native english speaker, i'd assume Rukas will be ok with a couple of mistakes from you :)

You write better than 99% of the people on this forum.

I used to always slip on than and then and Amara would PM me and laugh at me so I take special notice of that one now.

The there, their, they're thing is easy. I remember in primary school I just taught myself that they're is they are so if you can say they are use they're, and there is over there, it has an er, and their refers to someone so it has an I in it, silly way of doing it but it worked for me.

Yeah but Saint's grammar isn't actually that bad, and this thread is a subliminal diss to him... Ooops... Did I type that out loud?

i was actually gunna say that my grammer wasnt bad. As long as u can understand wut im sayin, who cares? But if your gunna be so anal about it ill try, but my posts per day is gunna go way down, it takes me forever to type proper posts, i suck at typin and end up back spacing a million times

You'll get better, and in no time you'll function like an intellectual member of society, or at least someone with half a brain. Then your post count will return, and you'll be quicker and smarter for it.

99% ...? Come on, the majority of people type fine.

Actually that was the first thing that came to my mind - your tendency to confuse than and then ... ironic thread I thought. lol. ;)
