It works in the reply box on these forums for me. It does a little dotted underline for misspelled words.

Strange, it doesn't for me, but it does on other forums...

not my computer so I can’t change the internet connection is there one that I could get on my currant connection

I don't spell check and won't poke fun at people who spell incorrectly, unless it is a good natured jabbing. I notice I constantly leave entire words out, so I guess I'm no one to make fun of the subject. And since I am always too lazy to spellcheck, it's amazing how I forget the spelling of words like annihilate (sp?). I also never seemed to grasp that children's rhyme of "i before e except after, you know, whatever". I won't even begin on the number of times I have used hear for here, there for their, etc. And the worst part is, I'm not dyslexic.

wow missed that post, that's because you think to fast

Its much more fun to poke the people who believe in the Queen's English. Not even the Queen speaks the Queen's english.

As someone from Derbyshire I would like to point out that most people don't stop speaking in there local dialect on the internet
But if I wrote "hast thee gun t marcet unst tandum or oss" not many of you would understand so Queen's english is important.

think to fast

too... Couldn't help myself

If you take a good look at the M-O-R-A-L-E thread

I wasn't supposed to laugh at the opening post was I? Sorry, I couldn't help myself. I laughed at the 2700 Morals in a 500 word post too.

I wish the people who thought wheel really thought they should die already would just.... ooops, me go now.

If you take a good look at the M-O-R-A-L-E thread

I thought this thread looked familiar. I was beginning to believe I had smoked too much pot(if there is such a thing) in my younger days.

As to the original post:(or ; or ,, I don't know) Yes, 2 consecutive negative posts tend to breed and multiply quickly. It seems to me that pointing this out in the first place is almost inviting controversy, though. Just by reading the initial post I could tell this was going to be a flame war.

Mumble,

LardPinko is, as Marcathonas pointed out, a fraud. There are very hard working people with dyslexia that spend a LOT of time on various tricks to get things right. Pinko can't defend himself when it's time to throw down so he backs off with this "I'm dyslexic" nonsense.

He knew full well what he was doing when he made the original post. Pinko was asking for a fight. This is the kind of person he is. I gave him an amusing "you're a disgrace" and suddenly I'm picking on the disabled? Nice.

I'll quote Tony Montana again: "You need people like me so you can all point your fingers and say 'Hey, that's the bad guy!'"

20 times harassing this tard? You can't be serious. Citations and links, please.

20 times harassing this tard?

OK. So I'm guessing. Seemed like 20 to me anyway. Maybe I exaggerated for effect. As I said to Marcathonas anything else is fair game. But please, for me, in this one single case, let the spelling slide.

He knew full well what he was doing when he made the original post.

It looks that way to me, too. I don't engage in bashing others much, but the original post seems too well designed to be anything but trolling. He knew someone would come back to bust his chops.

ShuShu, the scene in the restaurant where Montana gets drunk and starts yelling at the patrons is the second best part of the film. The best is when he yells at the TV from his jacuzzi and gets excited at a clip of flamingos while calling them pelicans.

Brilliant movie.

I actually want to quote a couple lines before the quoted remark but I'll definitely get hit with the banstick if I do.

Lard Pinko, nice analogy about local British dialects. Absolutely nobody on this forum has any point of reference to understand or disprove your statement. Even your fellow subjects can't help you because the dialects aren't typically written. Given that, I'd venture to say that if your fellow dysdialectics _did_ have a written form of what passes for communication, you'd still be a fraktard among your peers.

Personally, I think the War of Grammaria is wearing rather thin.

If you have difficulty with English, there are plenty of tools available that can help you use better grammar and spelling in your posts. I suggest you avail yourself of them if possible--a well-written and thought out post is far more likely to draw positive, constructive responses than one that isn't.

If you have difficulty with those who have difficulty with English (you know who you are), cut it out. Nobody likes being lectured, so unless someone specifically asks you if their English is correct, just stick to the topic at hand. Amateur grammarians are just going to antagonize those they attempt to correct, and antagonizing of other users is not something I tolerate for long.

Now hold on a sec, Kryo, that isn't true. I like to be lectured. Unless, of course, your staement IS true, that nobody likes to be lectured, in which case you're calling me nobody. (and for those who can't figure it out) J/K.

I have never posted to one of these useless threads before, but this is getting ridiculous. When people come here and see the most popular threads are nothing more than flame wars, it really looks bad on this entire community. This used to be a friendly, helpful group of people. Now it's been reduced to this. What happened to actually helping people who ask, instead of berating them because of the way they asked. This is the first forum I had taken an active part in for any period of time due to the community and helpfulness of everyone. If I were to have come here and seen the recent posts filled with flame wars when I started, I probably wouldn't still be around. I think it really makes new people not want to stick around when they ask a question, only to be attacked about their spelling. I have never gotten on to anyone about their method of expression. It's pretty simple. If I can't understand what their trying to say I don't respond. Why waste your own, as well as everyone else's time by pointing out something everyone else can already see.

heh.. never ranted on a forum before.I feel better  

The community is great and extremely helpful and quick to help. I see where you're coming from, but (perhaps I miscounted) I see only 3 flame threads, one of them locked. The rest really are nice discussion and/or helping folks, especially new ones, solve any issues or answer questions. And I never even see anyone bash new folks for even the questions that seem perhaps slightly ridiculous and easy to figure out on one's own. Perhaps this is more serious than I thought, my take on this thread, for example, is that it has actually simmered down from where it was.
