Lol nice one :)

When I made my first post with intentional spelling errors I noticed spellchecker was online the next time I looked at my post the spelling errors were corrected. When I made my second post with intentional errors spellchecker was not online and my spelling errors were not corrected.

Lol,

No way spellchecker can fix that one Alan! I see it corrected all the intentional spelling mistakes I made in reply #3 now. That's amazing. Is it really a script or are you logging in on a second account fixing peoples spelling mistakes so you can sleep at night? Comon Alan, fess up!

Gary,

I do actually have a second account that I use for testing forum access etc., so it only has normal member access and therefore doesn't allow me to edit other members' posts, and the not dissimilar user name and avatar are probably a bit of a givaway.

To be perfectly honest, if I had to spend more time on the forum correcting spelling mistakes, in addition to answering PMs, replying to posts, verifying user accounts to either ban and remove spammers or confirm legitimate members, I probably wouldn't be able to sleep at all, because there simply aren't enough hours in a day to fit it all in!  ;)
