I see it way too often. People that don't know how to spell, use contractions, or downright write. I see your and you're messed up all of the time. The same thing goes for there, their, and they're. Is using correct English really that hard? I understand some people abbreviate, such as 'Y', 'idk', etc., but honestly? Do people these days just not care about English class, or are they that stupid?

Sorry if this sounds like a rant a female would give, but it's kind of enraging at times.

Yeah, I feel pretty dumb for misspelling the word English on a thread about English and spelling. Forgive me.

For those of you saying, "Not everyone from this site is from an English-speaking country," I never once directed this thread towards this site. I generalized it by saying 'people', NOT 'people on NarutoBase'.

*Misspells english*

Also, not everyone here comes from an English-speaking country. You should be more sensitive to that.

I know I'd be pretty lost on a Japanese Forum.

For some it is. Not everyone is from America or speaks English as their first language. Some are not even well spoken in the language because of Age (etc.) which means education, however, that varies or depends.

Age? I'm only 16, and I like to think I have fairly good English and am good at writing and spelling, except for the word English of course. lol ~Logic~ is only 14 and he knows how to use words correctly. Also, I feel as if many people on this site are around college age.

Is this because that guy wrote "these's" ?

You do realize that not everyone has English as their first language
