Although my English is pretty well, I seriously want to apologize for spelling mistakes I have made and will make in the future.
I can't help it, it's not my native tongue so I ask you not to judge me if I writer with a couple of spelling mistakes.
I hope you understand and I think that there are many more like me here.

This is a site for people from around the world, and English is a difficult language. It would be really too bad if we judged people over spelling and grammar mistakes, as we all make them. It is the ideas that are important. Keep on posting. I think you do quite well.

take it easy.
sometimes i will make mistakes, although i will check it again. but i spend too much time online, so it is hard for me to pick out the mistakes in spelling.
i hope we can cut down the spellling mistakes, then it is good for those people who are not good at English. frankly, English is not my native language, so i want to improve it too.

Hey there,
don't worry about english not being your first language, you seem to have a good enough grasp of it so that I can understand the point you are trying to make. You don't have to apologise just because you aren't a native speaker.
Besides it's even written into the guidelines to try our best to help out and not put you down for not having perfect English. I belong to another site called GoPets that has members from everwhere, from the phillipines (sp?) to the US, to Korea. Eevryone I've seen so far both here and on GoPets probably don't care as long as they can get the basic meaning of your discussions.
