Is there anyone else here who has a hard time understanding topics? I feel like so much is spelt wrong, and just doesnt make sense. I cant tell you how many topics couldnt be understood. Is it just me???

I agree with all of the above. I live in Florida, and know that when I am typing a topic I am typing quickly because the thought is there. I have occasionally sent the topic even after proofreading and afterward noticed a mistake. It aggravates me. As an author it is embarrassing when I don't catch them. Now I use dictionary.com to make sure my spelling is on target, just in case LOL.

Yeah I think too many people try to type too fast and they don't reread what they write. They are probably just going for high number of posts and topics

I agree. I have had a couple posts on my topics that make absolutely no sense to me.

Initially I thought it might be due to the fact that many people here have English as a second language. Then I noticed that a few of the most difficult to understand posts were written by people who appear to live in English speaking countries. Yikes!

Many topics are hard to understand, and I just tend to skip them. If I can make sense of them, I try to post. A lot of it has to do with people who have English as a second language, but a lot of it is written by people that have English as their only language, and they just can't spell or make a full sentence correctly.

I agree. If I can't understand it, I skip it. I try sometimes to comprehend what they are trying to say. It would be nice if we all (me included at the top of the list) would reread the post before posting!!

Seems like alot are just out to earn the money, so they don't take the time to proof their posts. I try to proof mine but occasionally I find spelling errors after it's posted lol.
