It does more harm than good. It should be banned so people are forced to learn to spell so they don't look ignorant. 4951

My niece got hold of my sister's phone and changed a setting so everytime she typed a certain word it changed it to "**** white people". Took a bit for my sister to notice. It was pretty funny, hubby was a recipient. 4951

@FoFa: That's because it learns from your previous typing. If you texted that without correcting it, your phone will think that is acceptable. 4951

Correct @donnatella.  @FoFa, you can go into your keyboard settings and fix that.

@BooBear: God I am the worst speller.  When I was in school and we had to write essays, I was forced to always think of alternative words to use, because I could never remember how to spell certain ones.  In hindsight it really helped by vocabulary, but it was such a downfall.  My teachers and professors always complimented me, however, on my extensive vocabulary and writing style!

I will definitely rearrange a sentence if there is a word I'm not too sure of. I also use way too many commas, but that's how I talk, with lots of pauses. I also end most sentences with either an exclamation mark or .... 4951
