Spelling in thread titles

[Thumpalumpacus]

I personally am disciplined about spelling; I cannot stand misspelling a word. I very rarely use a spell-checker, too. I'm a writer; language is my tool. I take pride in wielding it well.

But I don't hold the misspellings of others against them, so long as they're not crowing about how intelligent they are.

I think of it this way. Sometimes a guy just has to fart, and there's nothing he can do about it. But if a guy will just let 'er rip anywhere, anytime, and expect me to accept it, that's rude.

Everyone makes mistakes. It's the obviously not trying to prevent them that bothers me, because that shows a disrespect for everyone on the forum.

I prefer to address the content rather than letting spelling mistakes impede what might for me be a learning experience.

I'm good at spelling and guitar-playing, you're maybe good at tennis and flying an airplane, we each have different skills. I won't take it personally if you're a crappy guitarist, so long as you don't ask me to land a 737 with an engine failure.
