Peter_Puget Posted March 21, 2002 Posted March 21, 2002 “Porr Spelling and grammer reflect porly on are sport” Is there some way to possibly put a spell check feature in? CC.comers [myself included] seem to be handicapped with regard to basic spelling and grammar. While in such a congenial forum such as this only a bore would condemn another on the basis of such errors, my concern is with how this reflects on the “climbing community.” At least we need the ability to correct/modify topic titles after they have been created. Please the NPS, the Forest Service, various unions and others are watching us. How will we be judged. Quote

bobinc Posted March 21, 2002 Posted March 21, 2002 Yes.... maybe, finally, cc.com is THE PLACE where all grammar and spelling errors will be magically repaired. That's one of the worst parts of internet culture: learning about the generally piss-poor mechanics of all of us who seem to ahve the time to post on these boards. Quote

W Posted March 21, 2002 Posted March 21, 2002 Yes, and I too join the ranks of those displeased with the poor grammer found upon this website. There are some who are seemingly unaware that a preposition is something one should never end a sentence with. Quote

bobinc Posted March 22, 2002 Posted March 22, 2002 Censorship isn't the same as editing (or shouldn't be). There's a big difference between the occasional typo and a sentence that is so full of errors that it's hard to figure out what is being said. It's just plain inconsiderate to expect others to decipher a badly done offering. Quote
Norman_Clyde Posted March 22, 2002 Posted March 22, 2002 W, it pains me deeply but I feel I have a duty to inform you: it's spelled grammar, not grammer. Quote
