    You want to look smart on the internet? At the bare minimum (that's "bare", not "bear"), in order to be taken seriously, you need to use proper spelling, grammar, punctuation and good diction.

    Is your reading comprehension so poor that you can not figure out what someone means when they mis type bare for bear?

    No. I know exactly what they mean. Do you not understand the value of clear and precise communication? Is that concept above your ability, or not worthy of your attention?

    Honestly when I see someone make a big deal out of grammar and spelling I wonder how those people deal with real issues in their life.:dunno:

    I see. Well, there's not much I can say if you just don't care for communicating in an intelligent, precise manner.

    If me miss tying bare and bear disgust you I dont really have any time for you either so its a moot point.:rolleyes:

    I see. Well, there's not much I can say if you're just too important to concern yourself with proper grammar.
    well if you feel like a more intelligent person at the end of the day, after you have spelled every word correctly and gramatically correct, and if it makes you sleep better at night, then have at it.

    I'm only concerned with my own spelling and grammar.
    If someone else isn't as concerned with their own, that's their business.
    I'm me, and they are them. (Or is it themselves???):n00b:
