    As a majorly dyslexic person, I can say it is more forgivable to be a bad speller, especially in light of a language where the words to, too, and Two all sound the same, yet have three different meanings.

    Being a bad speller is forgivable.

    Not caring enough to check spelling with a spell check is just plain ignorant.

    I can forgive bad spelling. I ask my kids how to spell simple words all the time. I guess that saying about use it or lose it is right on the mark. Not using spell check is just laziness.

    LOL being a bad speller! But it's all good. The english language is so screwy anyway its better to misspell words then not for purposes of understanding..
