I already noticed that! :thumbup: Simple things such as there, their and they're change the whole concept of the message. Not to mention to, two and too. Unfortunately spell check won't pick this up. :roll:

Seeing as we're on the subject, I'll add my own pet peeve:
PUNCTUATE PEOPLE! :hothead:
I've had enough of trying to interpret long, rambling posts without so much as a single full stop. Seriously, if you can't be bothered with punctuation, I cant be bothered trying to work out what you are saying. :?

Well aren't we a bunch of pedants! I never spell check and as it's not an automatic feature of this site, so consequently I'm always editing my own posts picking up typos and punctuation mistakes long after the chicken has flown the coop. I agree that doing it right the first time is the best but sometimes those words just fly off your fingers before there is time to cut and paste into another program. Perhaps a spell check could be fitted to the tool bar?

My apologies if I offended anybody, BUT in today's day and age, if somebody is computer literate enough to be using such a device, then surely it makes it a little easier for others to understand the original meaning of the post by doing the odd spell check and inserting an occasional comma.
I realise that some of us are very young and others have not have the educational advantages that others have had and this forum is for EVERYBODY, but I do find it frustrating trying to decipher what somebody is actually saying. :)

Some posts are harder than others to read but you DON'T have to read them . My spelling is atrocious when I'm having a bad day and pumped full of pain killers .

It can be frustrating I know but really ...does it matter ? Anyhoo no biggie , lets move on to more important things like FINCHES YAY .
