No, I make the same amount of typos when typing German that fast. I just cannot slow down, I type very fast - as fast as spoken language, almost. And bad habits from never having learned it from the starting line on, are difficult to get corrected. In English, my problem is not so much that I do not know the spelling, but that I do not know a whole word, and then work around, or pick a wrong one.
In the end, I could easily avoid messy texts by proof-reading it, or using a spell-checker. So in the end the truth is:
I'm lazy. Forum posts to me are just not the same like writing a letter, a text to be printed, or something. It more is spoken communication to me than written one.
Laziness, and highspeed-typing. That's the root of all evil.
P.S. Considering the length of some of my postings, I can understand my antipathy to re-read it all a second time.
