FireFox is good for spelling, and its easy to read, but if the person typing the forum description has a learning difficultie - Then i understand that, but if they are fun and have no disability's and spell incorrectly, that is worrying!! |

I have been known to edit a member's post if the spelling is really bad

I personally always try to spell correctly the words I write, but English is not my main language, so I can not be perfect at it. However, when it is about creating forums that we talk about, I always take grammar into account. I hate admins that can not spell correctly and give a good example to his members. Even worst if they are native English speakers >_< |

you guys are cracking me up...There's an old saying in advertising: "You are what you look like on paper." Fast forward to the cyber-age, and yes...people do judge you by how you come across in their first minute on your site. Definitely worth taking the time to make sure spelling and grammar is unimpeachable. |

Encourage your members to download and use the free, IE spell check. Most of my members use it now, but a few still slip up so I fix their mistakes.

I don't much care what its called, it is very annoying and tells me the person typing takes no pride in spelling and grammar, and that they are very lazy.
Oh ofcourse Stabbing and drugs comes before anything silly like education honey, but do try to spell your own name right when the cops arrest you again, wouldn't want to have your name misspelt in the newspaper! ![]() EDIT: Offensive comments removed. |

I have seen forums with miss spelled words in announcements and board descriptions. Most of those I have seen had too many of those miss spelled words to simply be typos. I just pass them by and keep going. |

I check spelling errors most of the time. It's a lot easier when I have FF 2.2 to make sure it's spelled right when I'm typing it ^_^. 1337 5|>34|< |2 63\/\/|] 4 |=|_||\| 7|-|0|_|6|-| |
