Kid-Ae Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Posted May 11, 2010 i can't spell to save myself, but then again when would I. I'm very bad at this. I put my hand up and say sorry. I don't use text speak though. once again I'm sorry but i wish they focused more with spelling at school. some times if i comment at 2 in the morning it gets worse. Mate, your spelling doesn't look bad. Also, you have no need to say sorry for anything. I don't really mind about spelling. :yes: Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted May 11, 2010 Report Posted May 11, 2010 Ian you would have to be the most punctuated person I know, Every post you make you go into depth to make sure people can understand what each word means, I don't get the _insertword_ thing you do though, what is it exactly? _XXXXX_ = emphasis. And if I use italics, it means that the text is sarcastic (somethine adopted from Toymods, where sarcasm is rife). Quote
Redwarf Posted May 11, 2010 Report Posted May 11, 2010 I don't mind some spelling mistakes, I don't mind roughish sentences. I detest SMS speak with a passion, and I detest lack of punctuation. If I go to the trouble of replying in a clear manner, I would like to courtesy of being replied to in the same. I have a year 11 education, and I can string together words reasonably competantly. "Bt I'm posting on n iphone i hv 2 txt spk" doesn't cut it. I actually think the way you post is a reflection of your attitude/ respect towards to rest of the board. Quote

B.L.Z.BUB Posted May 11, 2010 Report Posted May 11, 2010 If you think its bad on here... http://www.lamebook.com/category/typohs How do you get Firefox spell checker working? I think most of my typo's are tired finger fumbles and brain freeze. Did everyone pay a lot of attention to how they replied in this thread? Quote
Felix Posted May 11, 2010 Report Posted May 11, 2010 How do you get Firefox spell checker working? Have a look to see if is turned on: Tools>Options>Advanced>General Tab>Under the Browsing heading, ensure "check my spelling as I type" is ticked. Now make a message reply. In the reply window right click on your message reply, go to Languages and then select "Add Dictionaries". From there you can download and install the English (Australian) Dictionary. Firefox will restart reopening all your windows. Finally to check it is all working, right click in a message window. You should see a tick beside Check Spelling and if you run your cursor over Languages you should see a tick next to English / Australia. Done :yes: Quote
