I use firefox, but the first thing I did after installing (after installing my addons) was turn off the auto-spellchecker. I hate the "check while typing" spellchecking in any program.Ayoub wrote:USE FIREFOX.

FIREFOX PROVIDES SPELL-CHECK ON FORUMS. AND EVERYTHING.
Shoot son, gramer ain't no thang. Irregardless, we be on the internet, as long as you may understands what is said, it's all nice. Communication is key; ain't nothin' else language is 'fore! As long as you git r done, and the homies ken the sense of ya, "rules" are a moot point. And times? They does has been changing! Old forms and usage styles is all crumbling 'afore the march of the New Order; "grammar policing" is a relic of the past, a losing batle to keep language in a cage, when language refuses to be chained!Esvedium wrote:Must...DorostheConqueror wrote:irregardless

Anyhow whats to say that irregardless won't be added as a word to the Oxford dictionary if it is used enough and it integrates into the language then it becomes a part of the language.Esvedium wrote:Must...DorostheConqueror wrote:irregardless

Yeah, it's a word- it's been a word for quite awhile! Almost a century, in fact. And no less a person than Ezra Pound has used it, so if EP says it's kosher, it is.Daedra Prince wrote:Anyhow whats to say that irregardless won't be added as a word to the Oxford dictionary if it is used enough and it integrates into the language then it becomes a part of the language.Esvedium wrote:Must...DorostheConqueror wrote:irregardless
