    I remember in the forums before the jawbreaker ones, there was a spelling checker when you were posting.

    Could it be possible to implement one with the new forums ?:blush:

    Not that I can't write or anything but it'll help save some time rather then going on Dictionary.;)

    Good idea, and maybe you won't make a fool out of yourself for a simple mispelling. Or if you just get rushed like I ALWAYS do, then it will pick it up.

    I'm just kidding nobody looks like fools, but it would be nice. I know we can use on in the IRC channel too!!!!:haha:

    Smart people don't need one. :p :blackeye:

    .. Just kidding ...

    Or am I?


    Surprisingly, I never used it. I've always been a stickler for grammar though. To me, grammar it is your representation, electronically.

    For instance.. Text is to representation on the Internet as speech, appearance and mannuerisms are to real life.

    So it is good to communicate clearly because it shows you care enough to make a parsable sentence. :)
