Jette Blacque dameonmac5918 If I do mistype, I am either: 1.) In a rush to get to class (I access the Internet through a wireless router, and sometimes run to class and check e-mail at the same time) 2.) Typing too rapidly (most common reason, as I am a very fast typer) 3.) Not controlling my left hand, which was affected by an accident years ago, and thus, everything looks like this: "this is swhen I'm tnot controlloing my hands." (This is when I'm not controlling my hands.) On the other hand, people do need to check for mistakes before posting, but you can't find every mistake, you know. wink I think that is why there is a "preview" button. I hardly ever post anything without previewing it first! Besides, sometimes, you get gold when you preview! Yes...I think many of us know there is a "preview" button, but hardly any use it... such as myself. . But you do hold a good point.

I agree with you.
When I don't know how to spell something - I look it up. >.<

Some of us look up the spelling of a word, then mess it up EVEN though they're looking at it. ^^; I've done that quite a few times.

MadnessFreak Thankyou for taking this in a good-mannered way, since not all moderators have been quite as reasonable to me (I have been suspended from UAQ for a month for sharig my views), and I'm grateful. Anyway, as for the Skitt's law theory, I wasn't directing any form of offense towards darkrose_eve (although her message did come across none too nice), I'm just the kind of cold, sarcastic person who exploits irony. I understand what it's like to have everyone annoyed at what you said even if you didn't mean to be offensive, because I used to do it quite a lot. Please remember that irony and sarcasm isn't always so obvious when you're typing. If you know that you can't type well, get spell-checking software. Firefox has a built-in spell-checking function. While it's not perfect, it'll help. It also comes in handy if you're in a hurry.

Whoops. I think I'm guilty of spelling "grammar" wrong. redface
I always get mixed up between "grammer" and "grammar" but I never notice the mistake.

Yawn.
It's pretty sad when even a guild of supposedly literate people can't take the time to see what is right in front of their faces.
Maybe Gaia should get a spell check button up there with all of the others (B, i, U, etc.)?

The MoUsY spell-checker If you know that you can't type well, get spell-checking software. Firefox has a built-in spell-checking function. While it's not perfect, it'll help. It also comes in handy if you're in a hurry. You know, that is really the main reason I'm considering getting Firefox. I type quickly--which usually means I make a lot of stupid typos (I'm constantly getting stuck on teh, for example, because for some reason my fingers don't work right.. =) ) Spellcheck would be amazing. sweatdrop
