i think that beyond may need to install some sort of auto-correction feature for changing "your" to "you're". It seems that about 7/10 beyonders cannot correctly identify when to use this grade 3 tool correctly. thanks:nut: :dunno:

You should be the last person involved in any conversation pertaining to grammar.

What if someone wants to use your in its possessive sense? Autocorrect just won't work, though I like your spirit. Keep on truckin'!

Can we have that Google drunk email math thing before you post? Not to keep people from posting drunk, we should put it on 24/7 and use it to keep stupid people from posting.

We may consider you serious if you made the following corrections to your own grammar and spelling:

Change i to I.

Delete one of the 'correctly' terms in the second to last sentence using it twice causes a redundant term.

"you're". ' should be "your're." punctuation should be enclosed in quotations.

Change thanks to Thanks the first word after a sentence needs to be capitalized.

Have a nice day.

Why dont you just read every single post in every single forum, then correct the spelling mistakes and feel better about yourself.

Or you could just see a shrink and ask him why you worry about such a small and insignificant issue on the internet.

It's a public forum buddy. Find something better to worry about.

It has to do with how you read literature. Those that say they don't care and it's not a big issue are people whom read the word and interpret its meaning from its context. This is predominately because these types of people have poor spelling and grammar skills themselves and cannot recognize the difference.
Then there are those of us that have basic spelling and grammar skills and determine a word's meaning from how it's spelled. We read "your" when it should be "you're" and we're genuinely confused for a second. We stop our place in the paragraph, focus on it for a second, re-read the sentence again and finally understand it's a spelling mistake. This is long and monotonous and I'd rather just skip over the post.

So saying it's not a big issue might be okay for you but some people interpret literature differently from you and need to be accommodated. Since we can't all bring our grammar down to a grade 3 level, the basic standard should be for you to raise yours to at least a high school equivalent.

Then maybe you should tell dumbass17 to go back to grade 1 and learn how to capitalize!

How am I supposed to know where the sentence begins?? OMG I'm so confused!!

If you design a program that can actually do this and tell what the person is typing and if your or you're should be used or not I will retract this statement:

You sir are a fucking moron.
