Woodsman Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Within reason who really cares. OK I've seen some posts that leave me shaking my head. If spelling is slightly off or grammar not perfect I don't give a rats arse as long as I can understand the message. For some posters English is not their first language (but their trying their best) and spell check corrections only make it more confusing for them. Lets not forget the purpose of this forum is to share information with our fellow fishermen(fisherwomen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Incidentally, we say "incorrectly spelled" or "spelled wrongly" not "spelled wrong". Wrongly is an adverb and it answers the question "how was it spelled". The word "wrong" is an adjective answering the questions what or which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
