While I was playing aroud with the files of an old RC cars racing game (Re-Volt), I found out that the three cars going around in the Options menu (cars normally not avaible for use in the races, and even when hacked in they are very slow and with horrible handling), while the directories of the files are called wincar1, wincar2 and wincar3, the name that appears in the selection menu when hacked in are Wincar and Wincar Three for the first and the last, but the second one is called Wincar Too. Yes. And the game was developed in the UK, too! (Pun non intended.)

I can understand if the posts are writen ent13rly l1ek th1s, or if the missions have errors, but isn't making a big deal out of a few missing caapitals and punctuation marks in posts just a little stuffy and high-school-English-teacher-like? It seems to miss the point of the PPC.

I hsd nevar thaught thaat nebody hear o he baord wuld evr spel badlee! I meen, taht's whu wee r hear, rite?

And, to, think; that here is people... Who. are FLAGRANTLY ignoring the rules of grammar while posting!!! I don't believe this??? After all; that's saying like people are having here no sense of humor!!!

Bad spelling/grammar is a charge, so shouldn't we try to avoid it?

I generally try to check my spelling on everything, but I'll start to make a special effort for PPC related writing. If we're sporking people who make these mistakes, we can't very well make them ourselves.

Yes, ma'am! No more typos or errors in our posts, ma'am!

(Incidentally, that expression literally means "Hear, listen! This person has something important to say, so pay attention!")

Anyhow, Firefox users, take especial note: you can get an add-on that spellchecks anything you type into a text field, like the one you use to post on the Board. Here's American English, and here's British English. If you prefer another variety, check the list.

And, of course, if you DON'T have Firefox, you can always download it. It's free, it's easy to use, and it's much safer than (for example) Internet Explorer. {= )
