Spell chekcer

Just do ti. Dno't think about it, just install one. Nwo.

All of the cool forums have one. You don't want to be different do you? The other admins will laugh at you behind your back. You won't get invited to the best forum invasions. Well, you will, but your RSVP will be spelled so badly that they won't know who it's from, so they won't send directions.

**sasquash** · 10-06-2008, 07:43 PM

You know you want to. C'mon, just try it. It won't hurt.

Also, make it so that ctrl-delete deletes the whole token after the cursor. But mostly, get a spell checker.

Firefox and Chrome have a spell checker built in.

**sasquash** · 10-06-2008, 07:46 PM

At least install one for those of us who use multi-syllable words. I mean, if you can't spell one syllable, the subtleties of a spell checker are probably beyond you anyway.

Well shit, why isn't it working? I'll have to investigate that here.

Never mind.

It's common knowledge that the Firefox spell checker is flawed.

**Mr. E** · 10-06-2008, 10:32 PM

I have a better idea. How about instead of putting a spell checker on the site, everyone just uses words within their own natural vocabulary? With a tenth grade education you should be able to spell any word that you'll ever need to use. Take some personal responsibility instead of relying on crutches. This is what is wrong with society today.

Well, sure, but I'm more concerned with mis-typing words I know and know how to spell. You see, I sometimes type so fucking fast that my keyboard and buffer just can't keep up, and they screw up the order of letters.

And rumor has it that some lesser people also sometimes misspell words they know by their own fault.

Oh, in that case, cool beans.

Next time DaiTengu sits on the server until it pops and we all have to re-register I think I'll become Reverend E

Well, actually, what happened is this: Some pages on our network at work (intranet?) can only be opened in IE, so I have an IE window open a lot of the time at work. I found that I had accidentally used IE to get on the real web, which is why the spell checking wasn't kicking in.

See what can happen when you use IE, kids?

**SolidSnake** · 10-09-2008, 11:47 AM

How about you learn to spell instead?

IE can spell check with IESpell unless it's been gone in the 5 years since I've used IE. Yep it's an addon.

Buy a better keyboard.
