Why don't more people use the spellchecker? It would help make their meaning more clear.?

Spell Check doesn't tell you when you're using the wrong word. So using it would only solve a small part of the problem. These kids will still be using "looser" instead of "loser", and "no" instead of "know", until the day they realize that no one wants to hire someone whose writing skills are so abominable. Then they'll change in a hurry.

Using a spellchecker would imply that
a) they admit that their spelling sucks and
b) they know what a spellchecker is for.

BECAUSE EVEN WITH A SPELLCHECKER THE USER STILL MUST KNOW HOW TO SPELL.....THERE'S THE RUB

Spell checker isn't fool proof. It could give you random words or weird grammar- making your writing sometimes worse than before!
