Massive error in packaging

This is a free discussion forum on Freelancer. This is the place to discuss Freelancer issues NOT covered by the other boards!

You would have thought that Microsoft could have hired a proof reader. Or at least use their 'fabulous' grammar-checker in MS Word.


Sorry to tell you this Jericho but their "fabulous" grammar checker in word is about as good as the proof reader who checked the packaging on Freelancer. I have often laughed at the attempts of Word to correct my obvious gramatical mistooks.

Navel ships probably came from the Orange County system

They probably *did* use word to create the text for the box. Get it to check the last sentence in the paragraph above and you'll see what I mean.

The output=

"I have often laughed at the attempts of Word to correct my obvious grammatical mistook."

A spellchecker wouldn't have caught that. Navel and naval are both correctly spelled words I get this problem alot when I write papers for school, hehe. Lots of red circles with a caption "Don't rely on spellcheckers", or "spellcheckers don't always work."
