    Sometimes if the spelling and grammer is so bad you can't even understand what they are asking. yahoo answers has other sites for different languages. They should go there if they can't write english.

    It only REALLY bothers me if the spelling and grammar are so bad that you can't make head nor tail of what they're asking.

    but i can understand someone maybe being in a hurry when they ask a question so they type like this in all lower case and maybe the seplling and punctuation arent perfect. thats ok. :-)

    Sometimes it does. Not always though. If some people use bad grammar and I can't read it, I just don't even bother TRYING to understand the question! You know what I mean? lol.

    Yes!! It is really annoying when people can't spell right even though they have a spell checker. And then people insult us and think all teens are idiots. Well, guess what? Some of us aren't

    yes it does, what really really annoys me is that they get way more answers, than mine do, and i try to use proper grammar.

    its hard to respond when the grammar is so poor you can barely understand the question..

    YES! And I don't care for the shorthand answers.

    Yes it does.

    And age is always cited as an excuse (teen talk etc)

    Its not an excuse.
