New here-Need help about Programs...

Well in this situation spell check would have done no good considering the fact that "there" is a properly spelled word just the incorrect word.

So you only saw that one error in that post I was referring to?

I normally post while I'm at work and rush between screens not to mention I'm not overly worried about punctuation on a message board.

Well, if you want to be taken seriously, one has to come across as competent. Sadly for folks with impairments (such as good ol' fashioned stupidity) or who have English as a second language, in most settings, that includes the way one speaks and writes.

No that's not to only error I saw or mentioned. Now I have to ask you, Do you know me? No you don't so for all you know English could very well be my second language. Now it's not but that's assumptive of you when you don't know some one. Not everyone cares about grammar and such on an internet message board.
 
Relax, I was just trying to give some advice from one professional to another. If I wanted to do the Internet equivalent of ripping your heart out and taking a bite out of it Aztec style, I could have done it without any problem. I was simply trying to help you overcome the issues that folks on here (a lot of whom are my friends in real life) have mentioned regarding your posts. Would you prefer I remain silent and just let you continue to shoot yourself in the foot? I'm an educator at heart and that means more than simply passing on the technical knowledge inherent in this field. That is why I spoke up.
 
Fair enough. I admit when I post I take the lazy way out for the sake of speed and time. I'm also a person that's always up for a good debate. But please rest assured that my skin is thick, and when it counts I make sure to us complete and proper grammar. No I'm not apposed to teaching, We all have our love's. For you its teaching and I can't fault you for that.

Sadly, you chose not to spell check or use proper grammar in your rebuttal. :/
