im writing this cause spelling on here is driving me nuts.yes some people make spelling errors.yes some people are not as educated as some.I personally dont care if someone makes a spelling mistake whats annoying is offtopic posts complaining about spelling errors and people arguing over spelling.you dont need great english literature skills to fix a computer problem,mod a video game console,rip a dvd or to offer advise/solutions to tech related problems.

BUT.. you do need to be able to spell the minute you get away from "point and click" world.. the one that really pisses me off is "ect" .. ect?.. wtf???.. the word is etcetera.. ETC!!.. retards!!.. even saw it on a shop advert the other day.. out with magic marker.. acidic "2/10.. see me".. added. You don't need to be Bill Shakespeare or Edison to write on forums for most of us to get the idea.. but sheer lazyness and thickness shows up so quickly. A well worded and correctly spelled question from a dumbass will always get a better answer than the best possible real stumper of a question from a lazy moron..

There was a scientific study a few years ago about 'how the eyes and brain read'. It concluded that the eyes only really notice the First and last letter of each word. Or for big words, the first two and last two. ECT. Oops I mean ETC. They produced a document in which, every word was misspelt. And true enough, it was easy to read. . . .God I'm bored!! ......
