    Default Spelling

    Ok, who is anal about spelling? I'm talking reviewing ur post after u type it but before it goes up.

    i usually give mine a quick runthru to make sure it's legible, but i'll leave "teh" or something like that.

    I hate the "SMS" "TXT" or "MSN" talk.

    It's so freakin' annoying. I had a go at someone for using shit like that.

    Oh, And for reviewing posts and shit, Nah, that's boring, I just make sue I use proper grammer and spelling.

    Haha, yes, I do that all the time, If someone says something funny, in my mind i'm like " haha lol" and then I think "huh, WTF!?" And carry on the convo.

    SMS = Short messaging system.

    And it's no excuse if your txt'ing someone now, as phone companies don't make you pay by the letter anymore.

    I'm very anal about spelling. Grammar, not as much, but spelling is my thing. I do, however, make my very rare spelling errors. And fuck you, Skinner. <3

    I'm extremely particular about my spellings. But yea, the occasional slips are always there. Anal is always good.

    I read my longer posts once to see if they have any serious grammatical mistakes, but that's all.

    edit: And I also like editing, yeah.

    Sure. Let me forward you to Skinny, he takes those kind of calls

    I don't know for the life of me why people underestimate the importance of grammer. I simply cannot stomach when people use 'da' for 'the', or 'der' for 'their/there/they're'. It's the most bloody annoying thing in the world. I don't understand why people can't abbreviate in relation to what the word remotely spells like. I mean in THE, neither D or A appear. Bollocks.
