I find spelling to be of no special importance really. Punctuation, perhaps, a bit more. I am a comma junkie and tend to write in rather long, complex sentences, or rattle on nonsensically. A few commas, its more potent brother-the semicolon, and a few dashes, or parenthesis sprinkled about can add clarity, as well as flair.
Quite often I have quoted a post to which I am replying and find my spell-check redlined, as it is now with my spelling of redlined, throughout. Never mind that I had just finished reading that post and had no difficulty whatsoever making sense of it, indeed, never noticing a single misspelling.
I suppose it's due to my age and lack of a cell phone, but I despise "text spelling." I appreciate that it seems to be discouraged here. I don't fault the occasional spelling error and certainly in the context of a forum not all sentences need to be perfectly structured, but I'd appreciate some level of effort to make communications understandable. I consider it to be a basic courtesy to make such an effort.
Now, if I see that a post is from another country (other than England and perhaps Australia :)) then I throw that opinion out the window. Given my difficulty with other languages, I have nothing but admiration for anyone capable of posting anything in a foreign language!
