Sad thing is I have. I made a spelling mistake on a custom stage for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The stage was "None Leeve" when it was supposed to be "None Leave". My friend immediatly corrected me, after I had gone so long without noticing. I responded, "it's a much harder word than "you" which "you" can't spell right, if your life depended on it."

Wow...talk about insignificant. sweatdrop

I don't really think you tried to L33t speak. Probably more of a typo.

But, you really didn't have to 'pwn' them back... sad

I have... Though, the person spelled it wrong.

Actually, it was the word Color, which I spell Colour, in the British fashion. I was told to spell in the American fashion, though the person spelled it colar.

Wow...

I have made typos when I type fast to someone, whom I barely could understand because they type like txt and omg to the point where it was not even readable-just code. So, I made this little simple error and all of a sudden they corrected like they have been typing normally the entire time. It's really annoying, but it has happened a couple times to me.

Yeah when the purpose mis-spellers do it, it's not a crime. However, when we mess up, the universe explodes. Could this be irony?

That happened to me once...
I was in Rally, and some noob was spamming "Every1 hre iz an idiot!" etc. so I yelled out "*whatever his name was* is a lier!"...not realising I had spelt it wrong since I was so BRAINDEAD...so he yells out "ROFL Darkness its LIAR"...
So I, in my defence, said "I know, but my A key is broken."
Then I realised that I had used my A key and promptly logged off for a while...I felt so embarrassed...

Nope, never been corrected by one of their kind. razz

If I do make one mistake...they always pass it up. So it's quite funny.

I don't pay much attention to that sort of thing. But usually, if you aren't constantly correcting people, they won't do it back to you.

I guess it's karmic.

But yeah, I wouldn't be offended. It sounds pretty amusing... I mean, some dude who can't type to save his life correctin' one of y'all?

That's when you respond with: R U SRS? omfg i totaly didnt realise tht i maid a mistake so lik, ty 4 corecting me LOL!!!!!!!!

And after that you type how you normally do.

You have a point there, but one thing that really makes me snap is "teh" I don't know why, but it just does. Almost any "lol speak" makes me snap.

That's just sad on twenty different levels. Teachers who "TXT TLK" should have their licenses revoked.

That person must be either very young, or very uneducated.

Talk about calling the kettle black. confused

I was only warned by one of my friends not to point out her chatspeak. The username will not released for personal reasons, of course. Otherwise, nothing past that extent. smile
