Edited for spelling!!!

It has not been taken away, it's a server clock issue that only the Bakers can fix.  I've reported it  (again).

Sir Les
I am not so sure people are making all the mistakes either, in spelling.....computer spell checker might be some what to blame also....?....so yah, give us time to make sure our posts...reflect what we thought we ment, and wrote would be good to do....regardless of the webmaster or other end of the system running the forums!..To reduce confusion!

I too find it a little irksome but I'm easily irked.
 
The server clock thing is ridiculous as is many things with this forum software so I hope the Bakers aren't paying too much for it.
 
If it's just going to drift again anyway though I don't see much point in having the Bakers change it every couple weeks.
 
Now what REALLY gets my goat is that for some reason the Firefox spellchecker does not work here anymore. I know it's lazy to rely on those at ALL and it's not like I can't spell (or am not anal enough to google correct spellings) but typos happen and many times I am typing A LOT OF WORDS and QUICKLY to convey actual ideas. Having to pore over my posts to manually spellcheck is quite tedious so those red squigglies indicating I fudged something up are helpful.
 
As far as AUTO correct... that is absolute foolishness and should be abolished by law to a) prevent the further dumbing down of society (at least spellcheck can TEACH proper spelling... not ignore it completely) and b) avoid those awkward miscorrects that imply things like one wanting to do sexual things to one's own mother (or father) when all you wanted to say was "I want to come and raid your pantry" or "I need some socks".

This post made sense then the person I was replying to edited their posts so I edited mine to make sense. Now that post is gone so I'm editing it again to indicate it used to make sense, then made more sense then didn't make any sense at all.
 
Make sense of that. lol
 
ps: this thread is much better now that this post doesn't make sense for the reasons indicated above.

I wish my life was so simple that trivial nonsense like FIF's concerns were what I had time to worry about. I really do. Man alive.

The Edit Stamp Scandal Of 2016, as generations unto distant posterity will call it. We will look back on this as a barbaric time.

If you rearrange the letters in the name ANDERTON, and take some away, and add some, and rearrange them again, you get LIZARDS.
