Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell?


When I sell an item here, or write anything for that matter, there are no typos. It's as if my browser detects typos so I can fix them. Oh wait, all browsers have spelling error detection for at least 5 years (a simple setting toggle).

There's an advert here now for an 'Integtrated.' And often others for 'intergrateds.' And speakers with good low 'base.' The latter is a grammar error, and even lazier. On an audio site, do we not know how bass is spelled? Really?

Of course, upon moving to NC last year, I discovered that 'chair' is actually two syllables.

Go ahead, flame away. Make sure to spell check first so it's legible.

What difference does it make to you?  Does it take away from what the person (may not be an English speaker) have to say?  Sometimes, one simply wants to get their point on paper and post it, and forget (myself included) to spell check. Who cares??? this isn't Spelling class and it really isn't hurting anyone.

I really enjoy interacting with people here about systems, equipment, upgrades and music.  That person may be from Sweden for all I care.  And since I've been to Sweden at least nine times, I can tell you that there is no way on this planet that I could even think about speaking Swedish or spelling words in Swedish. Yet, they speak English better than me (or is it I?)

Lets not start an English language fight.  Enjoy the music.
