I will never correct anyone (at least not on these forums), and typos are not a big deal we all make them...if you misspell schizophrenia thats FINE (didn't spell check that bee tee dubs).

but...
...if you post a topic about "loosing weight" I can't take your advice seriously.0 -
Honestly, when I correct people I'm trying to help, rather than hurt. I may come off as a pretentious *kitten* when I do it, but I'd expect someone to do the same if I made a grammatical error, or mispronounced a word. The point is making sure that person doesn't continue to make the same mistakes over and over. A typo here and there is one thing, but if someone averages 4 typos in every post, or continuously uses "you're" instead of "your" then that person may need a little help in the spelling/grammar department.
And not like it matters, but I happen to be a black male. All my life I've been told that I "talk white" and "speak proper." You really haven't lived until you've corrected a gang-banger on his grammar, lol. I wear that with pride. I believe anything else is celebrating ignorance. My 2 cents.0 -
I like this topic and I was able to read it very fast....I know my grammer isn't the best but I do get my point across and sometimes we all make mistakes while typing...Oh well....I come here for support being judged or picked on about my spelling is the last thing on my mind....0
