But he used a smilie, does that not negate needing a full stop? The smilie would be a sentence in itself, and the world would implode.You forgot the full stop.

...those are all mistakes that annoy me. But Lisence and Licence are so similar, and their meanings so similar, that really you've gotta be a bit of a nazi to care about it! Another 'acceptable' mistake is the Your/You're one, and capitalising words is another I don't care about.
It's not as if we're reading a book or a newspaper article where the authors are actually getting paid to write, we're here for a chat, and to be honest moaning about the way things are spelt is as bad as moaning at someone for not pronouncing their T's. If someone's talking like a complete chav then OK we switch off, just like we do here with text message talk, but something silly (not pronouncing T's, lisence vs licence, your vs you're) really isn't something to moan about IMO. This is a forum, not a £44.99 Wetherspoon's special hard-back edition set of intellectual discussions.
