Are Some Folk Really This Stupid?

Irony right there...you realise you are being gobby too.

I also know a few of the people properly (as in met quite a few times) that you are referring to as 'gobby on the internet but not in the flesh' and I'll have you know they post exactly as they are in real life.

Spelling has fairly little bearing in intelligence and driving ability. A lot of very good engineers can't spell the odd word, usually because they are dyslexic.

However the leetspeak the seller uses does indeed prove stupidity and lack of driving ability.

Agree with the first point but have to say How/Why? on the second.
 
If I see a spelling mistake or poor grammar in an advert I simply click on the back button. If they can't put together a decent advert god knows what the car is like.
 
Disgusted

I am absolutely DISGUSTED by every single one of you in this thread. You should all be completely ashamed of yourselves

Have you never heard of the word DYSLEXIA

I happen to know this person very well and I can tell you now your words and thoughts have upset him, and his entire family no end.

A few years ago he would never have dreamed of writing a post or advert because he was too upset and embarrassed about his writing. It got to the point where he became so depressed, he even tried to take his life.

With gentle encouragement and support he has become more confident - enough to try his hardest with writing an advert for a car. And now you complete morons have had no thought for anyone but yourself with your harsh, unintelligent words and have just taken away everything.

Honestly, you are just bullys and you disgust me - does it make you feel better putting someone down like that? Do you feel more of a man now? You must be so inadequate in other areas of your life and so you pathetically think that by being so nasty towards others it will somehow make up for your failings.

So he cant use a spell-checker - so what???
So he cant spell words properly - so what???

The amount of the problems in this world at the moment, does the fact that someone cant spell properly really matter?

The only people with the true problems are the complete idiots that waste their time moaning about someone's spellings!

You need to THINK about what you say before you say it. Remember, he may not be perfect (just like the rest of you) but at least he is trying

We all have, but I'm sure even a Dyslexic person knows that it's "you" not "u".
Who honestly showed him this thread? If it was you, you're the only person to blame to show him this and upset him.

Really, tried taking his own life over spelling? Dear lord I'd have offed myself twenty times over with what I've gone through!
If it's true though, yes it's sad....honestly who showed him this thread? :/
