    Wait.

    WE CAN FIND OUT HOW WE GOT ON THE LIST?

    I probably spell-checked some diatribe, and suggested being able to spell a word is a crucial requirement for convincing people of your authority in the matter. It’s like how we don’t applaud a tenor for clearing his throat.

      Man that is so true. A) learn to spell, B) if you can’t spell, the Internet can spell, and C) considering both A and B, if you can’t be bothered to proofread the stuff you write, why should anyone else bother to read it or take your opinion seriously?

      Being passably literate is not that hard.

      Side note: If you write comments that are not in your first language, that is usually evident and it’s not generally spelling related.
