Makeshift Spellcheker - please use!
Hey there.
Over the last few... ohhh.. 6 months, it has become apparent that certain members of this board have skipped their countries education system, and are rather inept at what we would call "basic English".
In addition to this, these certain members do not seem to use a spell checker. Now, im sure that there is a perfectly good reason for this, like they cant find one, they are unable to download one, they are allergic to them, so on and so forth - which is where my massive stroke of genius comes into play.
Now, these certain members have a lot of posts under their belt. If we examine these certain members further, the bulk of these posts seem to be in GCC. From this we can conclude two things;
i. These certain members have access to GCC, and nothing short of an act of God will change this.
ii. These certain members are likely to view anything posted in GCC within 2 seconds of its posting
So lets take another look at the situation; certain members, who for some reason do not have access to a spell checker, often post in something that resembles a different language in GCC - a forum that they are rather fond of.
Solution? Post an English reference thread on GCC!
No longer will you poor "certain members" have to wander aimlessly around GCC, NO LONGER will your flaming and trolling be laughed at due to atrocious spelling. Before you post in the non-sens.. uh, the General chit chat forum, please cross reference your post with this list. Thankyou 
(In no particular order)
shoure = sure
flaming = flaming
neging = negging
neged = negged
week = weak
weak = week
if = of
of = if
ahapponed = happened
be tweeen = between
evean = even
seniour = senior
sence = sense
in volved = involved
aliance = alliance
baned = banned
sight[e] = site
site = sight
acction = action
parthetic = pathetic
incast = in case
dam = damn
teh = the
u = you
dnot = don't, do not
no = know
mi = me
becouse = because
tho = though
saye = say
widnda = Antionline
soled = sold
proble = probably
alcahole = alcohol
compart te = sorry, I have no idea wtf this means
youre = you're, your
lern = learn (something these "certain members" forgot to do)
defanitiob = definition
sarcasum = sarcasm
thay = they
Well, this is by no means a definitive list - it could continue unto infinity. But hey, it's a start! No longer will certain members cry out in vain "Alas! I cannot download a spellchecker! Woe is me! Woe!".
Another thread created for the improvment of our community.
Regards.

LOL.. What makes it even funnier is that there is a spell check button to the right of the submit and preview reply buttons.. I don't know if it works.. I view using that as I would regard reading the directions on how to assemble something.. NEVER.. it's beneath my dignity.

??????????????
Are you reffering to NFG? You kind of get used to her spelling after a period of time, and i don't think this will stop her or any other memeber, still nice thread.
Oh you forgot the one from Ennis's last signature.
parcificly = specifically

I fixed your thread title, Abtronic... I figured that a title saying "spellcheker" in a thread about spell checkers looked kind of goofy

I wrote 'spellcheker'? Jesus tap dancing christ, i thought i checked that at least 5 times.
Oh, the irony. Anyways, no real need for this thread anymore; in case you didnt pick it up "certain members" = NFG. Cos she cant spell. Get it? Ha ha.
Merry christmas

Spell errors?
I have never noticed such an error here. AO members write very well, I consider.
Life is boring. Play NetHack... --more--
