| It's the difference between knowing your and knowing you're . Wish I thought of that but inevitably something I read online.

People who don't put a space in between their first and surname name
Also those who don't start their name with a capital letter.

It's very easy to blame the teachers.
I have to say, it's not a job I'd want to do today, in a society which actively castigates truth, learning and, of course, 'experts', who actually know how it should be...

| Is it that important? Some people are better at some things than others. As long as content is somewhat readable then I'm really not sure what the problem is.

It's important to people who believe in education and learning. It isn't to those who think that education, like life, is "do the minimum you can get away with".
Not knowing the difference between "no" and "know" or "between your" and "you're" is embarrassing to the former group, but irrelevant to the latter. Or they say it is, but probably it's just too hard and so like science and facts, maybe in the new era it's easier to just make up your own version and claim your alternative is equally valid.
This debate is actually just a small backwater of the active dumbing-down that has been going on for decades, and has now reached frightening levels, we even have had guys on here who believe, or at least are prepared to consider, that the earth is flat. The disregard for learing spelling is a less important part of the general disregard for teaching and science, and the rise of religious and superstitious nutjobbery.

Yet many people who are not in the former group have gone on to achieve many great things, maybe they are embarrassed that those people spend more time checking grammar than actually fulfilling their potential.

Complete non sequitur. Or do you seriously propose "checking grammar" leads to failure to fulfil potential? That's pretty head scratching stuff.

Good to see the new owners finally making more use of Odsal's facilities, looks like the Gigantism World Snooker Championship is being held there tomorrow.

Whoever that is controlling it has made the same mistake more than once. It seems to be the same person doing the website stories too. I assume it's some kind of office junior who didn't do A-Levels and failed his GCSE English.
