Unfortunately poor grammar and spelling extends far beyond the bounds of NYSpeed. There is no hope for our future as a nation if eBay is any kind of sample indication for our educational system.

I see what seems like hundreds of messages on a weekly basis that make me punch puppies. Is there no hope? I don’t believe proving your ability to spell should be reserved for special occasions. Basic knowledge of the English language and sentence structure should not be limited to writing résumés.

Granted I am nowhere near perfect, but honestly? Really? I could copy and past a hundred more just like this…wtf?

When I was running the ebay stores I would see these all of the time. Usually it was from people asking questions and not people that had already bid and made purchases. It is very disheartening.

Typos are ok. It’s always annoying when people point out typos, vs blatant spelling errors…

between your browser having a spell checker that underlines words and a really quick review, there is no excuse to be lazy. it makes one look like a retard so they deserve to be called out for my entertainment and for their laziness.
