hehe, I just get a little embarassed when I re-read a few of my own postings sometimes. I suffer a little for dyslexia, and especially when I'm really tired, my words gets all messed up.
But as I said, it's no biggie. Just a thought.

How about I just do that after every post?
I'll check what the mod (if i was indeed right in seeing one) entails and then maybe add it later if its reliable and doesn't have any effect on performance.

Doesn't everyone do what I do? First type in MS Word then reread 5 times to make sure. Spell check 5 times. Close the program, bring up saved HHAH post #458. Spell check additional 5 times. If friend or family member is present, ask them to proof read. After copying and pasting on to the board, copy and paste again to make doubly sure. Then preview 5 times just incase the preview isn't previewing correctly. Finally you are ready to submit. Then go back and look at your post, refresh the screen five times.
"For" would be spelled correctly, so I guess you would have to add a grammatical error checker too.

i switched from opera to firefox. I can't really say which is better, although firefox's bookmarks are totally shit... it seems incapable of even ordering them alphabetically
But the extensions are very nice

I aint being funny, but who gives a flying fuck if someone is dyslexic?
So many foreigners type in piss poor english that we are all starting to evolve a translator.

I still don't see the point.
I really don't give a shit if someone makes a typo, grammar won't be changed, so the results is minimal, seems a totally pointless feature to be honest.
Not worth the effort, I don't think anyone is that shallow to pick on spelling, but if you need the dictionary, firefox has loads built in.
