:really: Where are all the "outside" threads?? I wanted to link to a {philisophical rather than derogatory} post there.

It does say in the forum description that "Posts in this area will be deleted after a short while to save embarrassment".

There had been no new posts in the forum since about the 20th May - almost a month, so last week, the area was cleared out.

Besides, if we don't tell him, how will he know? Better than just pointing him towards Dictionary.com (http://www.dictionary.com) :) (On second thoughts.....)

I've got a link to Dictionary.com in my shortcuts, but it dosn't check a whole bunch of text at once. I normally use a blank e-mail and hit F7 to spell check it before cutting & pasteing into the reply box... If I remember to hit F7... If its a fairly lengthy reply... well, OK I only do that occasionaly.:blush: {Gawd - I can't even spell the smilies right!! :rolleyes:}

If you can pick out my spelling errors, then you must be able to work out what word was intended to be there - so why bother correcting them? {...And I don't believe that I got negative rep for bad spelling... that's just cruel. :tears:}

so why bother correcting them?Because I'm a teacher, pet - it's what I do by profession and by habit. Correcting your spelling is not a criticism, honest.
{...And I don't believe that I got negative rep for bad spelling... that's just cruel. :tears:}Me neither: bad repping for bad spelling sucks. :hug:

Ahhh - Heather too. I think I must jar on a few people with the occasional {:rolleyes:} miss-type. Why can't more teachers be like Bill - he makes more true "typo's" than I do. :rofl:

{forgot to add a :doh: in relation to Tramp's post about them being wiped out... I really should read the descriptions...}
