I'm not sure I'd trush a bunch of boiler makers as my source for grammer. Besides my problem has to do with spelling.

Yeah I, agree. My grammar is perfect so I can't possibly imagine that, I who have perfect grammar, could fail to not need a grammar guide!

Triply noted, just in that first sentence! That being the case, try dictionary.com (http://www.dictionary.com). Of course, the aforementioned grammar guide couldn't hurt, either...

You know, I've seen boards with spellcheckers built into the posting system.. wonder if that would be possible here. Because we really do get alot of terrible almost illegible spelling here.

It adds a lot of overhead to put spellcheck at Cheapy's end. Most browsers have some option available, either built-in or and add-on like IEspell.

thanks, because when I visit a website on which I enjoy reading and typing funny things the first thing that comes to mind is proper grammer, snoogans

Maybe Cheapy could make the spell check available to only a few people in order to minimize costs? Or is it an everything or nothing type of code deal?

Don't make fun of poor slidecage...he has actually improved. You should have seen some of his old posts on the old online CCG (WWF/E With Authority) we used to both play. Seeing a page of rambling about how Brock Lesnar is b0rken with no punctuation or capitalization will really make your head spin. (Not sure if that's who he said was broken, but that seems to be the card that was complained about most often.)

Can we just get him to use periods and question marks, just so we can tell when the sentences change? That's really the thing that makes his posts unreadable.

That's really the thing that makes his posts unreadable.i dont think he really feels like it but if he did he would be sure to do it as often as possible you know then we would all be happy to read his posts he would be proud of himself we woul be nice to him and alot of other things would be fixed right

My God. Did you BOTH blatantly miss the sarcasm? That just makes me sad. I mean, it's not easy to write that poorly! Throw me a bone here!
