Spell Checker

Is there a spell checker for this site? My spelling isn't very good and I have to keep reading over it to get it right. :I
see what I mean :I

I read my posts three times or more. But then I'm a perfectionist (and crazy). A "preview" mode would be nice, but since we have the "Edit" button, it is not necessary. Your spelling is fine! We all know what you mean, and anyone who doesn't can ask for an explanation.

the spellings not so important as a lot of its just typos, which in my case are qwuite bad as I'm a t*ss typist. it's the atrocious grammar that gets me. if people aren't native speakers of Inglese then its understandable and you make allowances, but some peoples ability to express themselves is severely limited to sub Cro-Magnon standards. ok some of them are only kids, but if you cant make yourself undestood in your own language then why even bother puttting it down? an intellectual challenge for everybody else, or a cry for help?

Yeah, now you say that.

And I must say I am impressed that no one answered the topic subject "Spell Checker" with "c-h-e-c-k-e-r." But then maybe that's due to the fact that Nickless hasn't posted.

I'm often tempted to have a go at people for awful grammar too, but this forum has no need for a grammar Nazi. Most people here, have perfect grammar anyway, it's just a case of not being bothered to fiddle around with their posts afterwards to perfect them. Does anyone remember the last guy who made a post whining about the quality of spelling and grammar, only for him to make about 3 or 4 grammatical errors in a short paragraph?

have I ever made myself a grammar nazi? no.. but some people write posts like they've been emptying out their ear-wax in a bazaar in Timbuktu at the same time, it's complete gibberish. Y'know, i do like to understand the point that people are trying to make, but unf. i don't understand the language of the Qualorxx Galaxy..

I don't mind people making the odd mistake, but when people spell poorly or miss out punctuation entirly it's annoying, for example people who post as if it's a text message. "sum1 hlp me wi me prob, i cant get frelacner workin" If people try, I don't really mind.

Post Fri Jan 16, 2004 12:56 pm

Nickless I beleive that you have rather a checkered history?

Post Fri Jan 16, 2004 1:59 pm

I'd much rather the odd typo than Taws ***mysterious*** word abreviations..
