Question for Good Grammarians

[Emmanuela]

I just found a thread called 'Fantacy Fans Unite'. Can you spell 'Fantasy' 'Fantacy'? I've never seen it done before, is it correct?  

[Sola Catella]

No.  

[Aramethea]

Hmm... don't think so - someone can't spell....  

[Holy Hydroxide]

Nope. You can't. But it's closer than a lot of spellings I've seen.  

[Ithaya]

Not that I know of.  

[Emmanuela]

Thank you! It annoyed me, I must say, that someone who claims to be such a big fantasy fan, can't actually spell it.

Nope. You can't. But it's closer than a lot of spellings I've seen.

what have you seen before? Fantasy isn't a word easily misspelled.

*chokes on drink* How on Earth can 'Fantassy' even possibly... Can... Spellings... How...???

Who would be that stupid? Not being mean, I mean, 'Fantasy' is not exactly a hard word to spell... But... Fantacey???

For all you know, it could be a typo... If I'm not too much mistaken, isn't the "s" key only two keys away from the "c" one? But then again, such an obvious mistake... the owner of the guild would have changed it as soon as they saw it. Overall, that spelling mistake isn't too bad. I spotted someone spelling "whether" as "wheather" over and over again... that was really irritating gonk

Personally, I hate the common misspelling 'wether' more, as it actually means 'castrated male goat.'

Haha! I don't think it was a typo as they consitently spelled it wrong.

Nope. That was just written by yet another poor sap who can't spell.
