How hard would it be to add spell check to this forum? I am embarrased from all my spelling errors, in my posts. Most are because of my typing technique, and speed. I keep spell check activated on my email, but I don't see away to use it here.:thinker

LOL Jeff

Just take a minute after you type your post to look it over - I've always done that and it's worked well.

It doesn't hurt that I have a small (but successful) side business doing proofreading/copy editing. Let me know if you ever need something of the sort - Smoking deals for all my NICO brethren!

The funny part is, after reading Fred's posts for about three years, I have learned to "translate" his language... :D

ah, but there is a plugin that takes about 30 seconds to install that would add a spell checker to the forums...it also has an option to check or not check in your User CP settings.

Well, I believe many "peeps" on this BB are trying to type ebonically to sound hip. It doesn't work as they come off sounding more like children. But I'm not so sure spell check is going to fix as much as you think.

I understand that, when we talk like that me and my friends or whoever, its in joke format, makin fun of ebonics etc... but for others their actually serious haha which is funny because they sound like they haven't past third grade.
