Re: Spelling and Grammar corrections

That was totally incomprehensible and, indeed, the reason I wrote this.

Oh some people just need to stop thinking they live in a perfect world and suck it up about how people type.

Evidently, neither my eyes nor my spell checker are as keen as yours. Would you mind giving me one or more examples of misspelled words?

Spell checker didn't catch the mistakes, for the words you misspelled are words, just not the correct words (ex: of -> off). Pointing them out would be such a pain...

All of the words that matter are fine, though, so you're good.

But sir, I never misused 'of' or 'off' once. Are you sure you're not seeing things?

Re: Spelling and Grammar corrections

I thought it'd be appropriate, due to the nature of your signature. I apologize if I came off as whatever I came off as, but I didn't know another way to start it. Perhaps "Wouldn't it be cool if...?" Anyway, it's done now.

Re: Spelling and Grammar corrections

Why are you posting this? Do grammatical and/or spelling and/or punctuation errors bother you that much? You should "just adapt to new things." I am a Grammar Nazi, myself, but I can learn to live with these things. I don't mean to offend you, but really? Does it matter?

Yes, it bothers me that much. It bothers loads of other people, too. It's much easier for us to understand what somebody's saying if they write stuff properly and use the correct words. Otherwise, they may not get their point across correctly.

Plus, the number one way to have your first impression on someone to be perceived as being an idiot is having bad grammar. Amirite?

Re: Spelling and Grammar corrections

I have to admit, I do sometimes make small grammer mistakes, there is no way to fix everyone, but it's a good thing you're trying (Ahh, I was about to put "your" instead of "you're" )
