Yup. Pretty much all of my edits are in regards to spelling or grammatic errors. Not that I am any language genius, but I often ridicule people (Particularly the American public) about their egregious language blunders, so I should at least try to correct my own

Not that this always werks, mind you. :)

Regularly. For some odd reason there are people here who jump on my spelling mistakes like the last bus out of Beirut. Can't think why.

Co-sign. I find if I let my recreational writing slip in quality that degradation tends to leak into my business related correspondence. So I try to stay on point.

Not normally, but some people on here are real dicks about it if you do mess up.

[Night Rider]

I mess up all the time and have to edit..

[GIA LOVES RON]

I don't but sometimes when the word is new to me and I need to know the right spelling. I check it. But I make spelling mistakes here and there and you know what, that is fine.

Yes, because I'm one of those dicks.

if there is a mistake that is really bad,

or in posts directed at people I care for -



I never ever edited a post regarding its contents.

Occasionally a pretentious person is said to "affect" an artificial air of sophistication :wink:

[iloveshemales77]

"effect the meaning of the post"

Sumtimes I mess about with speling and gramma jest four fun, but not all my misstakes ar delibrite.

I'm sure all of you have seen a one or two verse version of the so-called spellchecker poem, but here's the original:

Candidate for a Pullet Surprise
by Mark Eckman and Jerrold H. Zar

I have a spelling checker,
It came with my PC.
It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks aye can knot sea.

Eye ran this poem threw it,
Your sure reel glad two no.
Its vary polished in it's weigh.
My checker tolled me sew.

A checker is a bless sing,
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when eye rime.

Each frays come posed up on my screen
Eye trussed too bee a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.

Bee fore a veiling checker's
Hour spelling mite decline,
And if we're lacks oar have a laps,
We wood bee maid too wine.

Butt now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flare,
Their are know fault's with in my cite,
Of nun eye am a wear.

Now spelling does knot phase me,
It does knot bring a tier.
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped word's fare as hear.

To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should bee proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.

Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays
Such soft wear four pea seas,
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting want too pleas.

(Composed in 1991, the poem first appeared officially in The Journal of Irreproducible Results in 1994.)

[marissaazts]

how do you know my grammer she passed away in the late 70's she was pretty old how do you know she sucked

[tall, dark & Handsome]

I gotta say I am shit at grammer. Sometimes I notice a few run on sentences grouping together and I decide to just turn my back and let them run off and be free.

I think I am going to edit this :lol:

[CORVETTEDUDE]

I try to fix any mistakes I have in my posts...After all, aren't we being graded on grammar and spelling? I thought the "Mods" were keeping an eye on us!? @$&^%#$*&

[muhmuh]

[Willie Escalade]
