It wasn't bait... my post wasn't trying to rile you up. It's true. Anyone with 4,500+ posts must like to talk. |

If you're using firefox, there's a built-in spell check for text input boxes. As for their/they're/there type confusions, if you didn't learn that in school then there's not much chance you'll get it right now. |

My spell checker doesn't actually work for some reason, I try to search why it doesn't work even though I have it checked. I am also having problems uninstalling Google Chrome so I can install another web browser.

i actually do proof read..... Which is really really sad when im told how many errors i make...
I even try and use words i know i know how to spell... like error in steak of misteak. |
I hate it when people see me at the supermarket and they are like:
Hey, what are you doing here?
and im just like:
Oh you know, hunting elephants |

If anything, I post, then end up editing posts from time to time myself because I believe my words didn't convey the correct point or I made a small error. |

What so when you write a post you check every spelling your not entirely sure of? Actually silly question because your amazing at grammar. |

Didn't meant to sound so blunt if you took it that way, but yeah, my grammar is of an elite level to begin with :P If I'm unsure of the spelling of a word, I don't use the word. Easy as. Or if I need to use it, I'll obviously look it up beforehand. |

All I got to say is, I don't mind people correcting me as long as they don't make fun of me.

Regularly I hit post and then a massive stupid error screams out of me and bugs the hell out of me, despite missing it when I skim over what I write before I post it. Was on a board where you couldn't edit stuff. That was annoying. |
