I'm so right there with you on the need for betas. I find it appalling the things people will post to Yahoo!Groups or their LJs... Come on people, is the state of education in your country so bad that you think this is polished? Did you even read it after you typed it?
It's one thing to say "Hey, this is rough, but I thought I'd share it anyway" and another to claim "betaed by BADBETA who is so gr8". It just makes me think really bad things about BADBETA.
Than again, every time I get my knickers in a twist about this sort of thing, I try to remind myself that there are better things to occupy my mind.
