Why can't anyone spell on these forums?

Poor grammar I can take, but so far today I have seen 'no' instead of 'know', and 'cood' instead of 'could'. I don't want to sound sad - normally I wouldn't care less about this - but it is really starting to bug me. Maybe because I'm older than some people on these forums (well, 18), but the way I see it, even young kids should be able to spell (not thinking of anyone in particular, FOOTBALL GOD).

Does it bother anyone else?

unfortunately you have set yourself up for a mob of little gimps who will now check every post you write for the next week to see if there are any spelling errors and will post annoying comments.

****checks for errors***
