How pimp would GFY be if it had a built in spell checker?
 

Imagine if GFY had its very own spell checker when you reply or post new threads. A grammar checker would be out of the question, GFY would blow up.

hmm, probably not too hard to add it into vbulletin script or something...

there is an IE plugin to check what you write..
not sure if a firefox one is there yet

The majority of mistakes here are grammar as opposed to spelling.

Try this http://www.iespell.com/

google has a form spell checker in their new toolbar...pretty nice

Didn't one of the old scripts have spellcheck here? I'm pretty sure one did, I know there were a few other wm boards that had it.... very few used it, I doubt it would reduce the # of stupid mis-spellings and typos significantly.

a GFY spell checker still wouldn't correct bad grammatical errors such as "your" and "you're" mix ups.

not pimp at all, what else are we going to point out when we have nothing to fight back with? :(

I'm sure your thinking a spell checker would help but their would still be these kinds of errors getting through :)

Hahaha... exactly. Nothing is "fool proof" when up against the right GFY'ers.

Ode to a Spell Checker
 

Eye halve a spelling checker
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marks four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye striks a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me a strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My checker tolled me sew.

that would be nice, but as others said, a grammar checker would be better

You can always use the spell checker in the google toolbar. :)

That would be great.

It would be sweet, but it would probably slow GFY to all hell because no one on here can spell.

That would suck. It makes idiots look smarter..

You can always tell what someone means, so does it really matter ? Its annoying sometimes, but other times its a good starting off point to judge someone. ( and thats what makes gfy so fun :) )

Peopol here will sure react on this steytment. :disgust

But then the sheep would not be able to poke fun at anyone.

oh so true.
