Ok, I was just in another forum on a Deftones site and when I went to reply to a message it had a spellcheck button.

When i saw this I instantly thought of how I and others like these forums to be clean and with alot of good grammer. So is it possible to add a spell check button? It would also help those occasional errors.

P.S Sorry I have not posted much at all lately, alot has been going on and I will try get back asap, as you guys are starting to be missed *sobs*

I think the user should have the option of how many replies the forums display!

I suggested this and I am hoping...

:D

I really doubt if we can make a spell-checker a priority at the moment.

Our backlog list is getting longer and longer.

Hey good idea, it would save me having to look in the dictionary all the time if there was a spell checker option.

Thing is, if it's little errors, likt teh instead of the etc, then I don't think anyone really minds.

It's all this text message speak that annoys me!

Apart from spelling, you should have the courage of your convictions and stick to what you post

I agree, sometimes you post and look back saying "Damn i missed that" or even want to edit your post a few weeks later.

Hmmmmm no the spellcheck will only be used if the poster want's to use it and have a non errorable post.

But I must admit some are funny.
