Asking for opinions

#1 Postby joseph01 » Fri Jul 15, 2005 1:52 pm

It concerns the numerous misspellings I've seen in some posts. Not often, but occasionally, I've seen posts with literally every third word misspelled. I'm not talking about the occasional misspelling that we all make, especially on a message board, like an inadvertent key stroke, or an accidental rearrangement. I'm talking about when it's on the verge of obscurity. Here's the question:

Would it ever be appropriate to make a subtle comment about it, or would it always be rude or impolite to do so?

Thoughts and opinions please.

Wrong forum, perhaps. I'll try off topic.

Try off topic but remember that there are quite a few folks that are not from the US so some of the english spellings are quite hard for them. What you usually see is phonetic spelling.
