Is it just me or do other people find it a total turn off receiving a message that is so full of spelling mistakes you struggle to read it??? I'm sure many will argue that you dont need to spell to achieve mind blowing sex but unless some kind of "spell check" feature is added, I'm just going to continue hitting that delete button.

Phew, glad I've got that off my chest!

I too am really annoyed by bad spelling...in every walk of life ...not just on here

sometimes on here though it can be quite funny.. Such as "meat you" instead of "meet you"!!

I know a young guy from Plymouth who suffers terribly from Dyslexia (not on this site), his texts to me are almost impossible to decipher....but I see past this and do my best to make every allowance for him......and you know what?, he is damned good in bed and if I had fobbed him off as being some sort of dunce (which he isn't) I would have missed out on some great nights with him.

We always give them a test and ask for a sample of their handwriting before we play.

Haha…. Although I have to stress ,,,, as far as I’m concerned,,,, I believe its total nonsense to pass judgement on someone credentials to be a worthy swinger based on their inability to correctly spell or their misuse of grammar and punctuation…. ,,, However I do find it rather amusing when someone posts a thread rattling on about it, particularly if they include some form of mistake themselves… as with the Op’s use of dont….. ahem…… I maybe wrong.... but when I went to school …. It was taught that was spelt “don’t “…. With one of em thingamajig diddlybobs between the n and the t… now to all you nerdylocks out there just bursting to correct me, if I am indeed wrong on this? …. Go for it by all means!….…. But will I care?……the answer is nope !!!!!

..My success rate for getting replies has been very good since I joined, I have been so polite and checked for spelling mistakes with messages I have sent, I am not that confident of getting a meet, but its lovely to get a nice reply at least!

Lol

I think there has to be a happy medium. I am not one for deleting if a message isn't perfect spelling wise. As long as its easy to read and original ten fine. I would rather have a message with the odd typo than a perfect message drafted in a word document and pasted to hundreds of women.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

Spelling mistakes in posts and messages are understandable, due to the immediacy of the typing. Press enter and it's sent.

Failing to proof read your profile (or have someone do it for you) is not making the most of the opportunity to present yourself in the best possible light - which is the point of the profile.

Text speak is a whole other level of grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I can live with typos, but not 'txt spk', or gibberish.

I can spell, but can't type, so, for example, 'like' turns out as 'liek', and sometimes I forget to check messages if I'm in a hurry. I don't think it detracts from the content of my message though.

Spelling may be the thing your good at Me i am better at other things but i still do not let it put me off even when people like you come on saying all sorts . we are who we are end of the day and theres so much more to me then this. people getting on there high horses saying what thay dont like when people mail your lucky you get post some of you.

I feel NOTHING for spelling and punctuation nazis. Not even dislike.

Pure indifference.

What portion of a positive feel do they bring to swinging forums.

I was married for 30 years to a chronic speller with handwriting that resembled an unravelled reel of wire.

Biggest heart, biggest work ethic, enormous love, humongous cock, great father to our children.

Then I noticed he put i after e so I killed the bastard. I mean..... fuck him spelling maketh the human being. We ALL know that.

Okay the last bit was a lie. Not the first part though ...

Why are we here? Is this Fabswingers or fabmoaners? Why are we seeing these threads from people picking holes in others? Is it due to an inferiority complex and people needing to feel superior? Let it go and have fun!
