Title: Spell Check
Post by: Anonymous on May 15, 2004, 11:46:08 am

I really don't mean to point the finger at anyone in particular, but lately I've noticed there's a problem with spelling.  By no means a grammar Nazi, and I'm sure people are just in a hurry, but it makes things easier to read if we don't have to decode one another's messages in an attempt to understand.

There's a preview button right next to the submit.  Just press it next time, and take a few seconds to go over your post.  Sometimes there are just mistakes that we make by accident, and it only takes a moment to correct.

I'm not here to be anyone's teacher, I know some of you get it enough at school all day.  But it is a lesson in common courtesy.  Since we're your faction-mates, just consider making it easier on us.

Somthing Like that I thinks, well still it's not that hard to type properly I suppose.  I do it out of habbit, I use slang and shortcuts when I am really lazy lol.

I'm not asking for an English paper, but I think you guys see exactly what I was referring to.  It was tough for me to broach the subject, and I appreciate how well some folks are responding.

I think the quality of the posts here has been above average.

I haven't had any problem understanding anything.

As much as I can understand where you're coming from, Asha, I think it's miraculous enough that most of us type the way we do.  As Muse said, the quality of the posts here is above average.

Can't quite say the same of the MxO forums.

MxO forums, that's like adventuring to the far off land of battle.net.

I want to reiterate that this request is by no means an indication of my feelings regarding the caliber of character here, I think people here are great.

Muse, it may just be me; perhaps I'm slower than others.

Well we have the best of the best here, not spelling and not knowing how to click View must go together...hm, I'll need to research that.
