I think people need to distinguish between acidental miss spelling and purposeful miss spelling. AKA acidental miss-spelling is when someone attempts to spell but makes a typo or just a mistake often with weather and whether etc. those people fair enought i don't mind them they are trying. btw i'm dylexic so excuse me if i do some minor mistakes. Though the ones which do the "waz u gunna sell me dat?" often the spelling dosen't even save time. after all was's S is close to the wa then x.. most of them just think they are cool for doing it but they don't realise that after all it's best they learn now then when they are older and they have to or they work get a job beacuse those 'nerds' are their bosses. also english is a language it is to express comunications, feelings etc. you can't do that if you don't understand them. p.s if anyones done programming they will know the importants to know some spelling (even though there american often.. most are the same) after all with out some spelling the internet wouldn't exist... well with out geeks it wouldn't and neather would games. so love your geeks or not preaty games :)
