I think a lot of people get it wrong because apostrophes when used with a name show possession (ex, Uzu's, Psy's). Also, a lot of people suck with contractions, mostly foreigners. They'll see "you're" and think back to the partially learned English lesson on possession and not realize that it really means "you are."
And some people are just plain stupid or 'don't care.' The extreme is that they want to look cool.

Please keep in mind that ever since the introduction of NWA it has been cool to look unintelligent.
I am from Peru so my native tongue is Spanish. The main dictionary of my language has been accepting and introducing to their newest releases a bunch of words and terms that where considered gramatical suicides, the kind of stuff you would get corrected by anyone if u said it. And now some of those things are correct. Why ? Because so many people say them that eventually it has to be introduced.
In todays world it no longer matters, if you get your message through and clear enough for it to be understood then it doesnt matter if you didnt build your sentences or phrases in a perfect and flawless use of the language. And for typing (because who uses a pen anymore) you will always have abc checking.
Yes it does. If you work in an English-speaking country then not only does it make you harder to understand, but it also makes you look poorly educated. First impressions are everything. What I find more annoying are people using "loose" instead of "lose", "there" instead of "their/they're", and not using "whose" and "whom" correctly.In todays world it no longer matters[/b]
Oh, and people who think that "funner" is a word. Fucking pisses me off.
I think the majority of the ppl from US/UK/eng speaking countries know the difference, but, like me, many think on a gaming forum it isnt the most important detail.
Obviously at work or in something formal its different..
You know what really pisses me off? Innovation and evolving of languages. I think everything should stay the same because change will not make mankind prosperous. We need to go back to the first language actually, before any change was taken place! Hail caveman speak! ogg booh kah topk!Yes it does.
