The question is - can you politely correct someone's spelling without being thought of as a troll?

I believe the answer to that question is no. I have tried in the past and failed many times. I am a grammar nazi as well, but NO! I cant correct people's grammar!

A few days back, I suggested this feature: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=627768.0


Honestly, I think it's a great idea to implement into the new forum software.

 Holy shit! Thats a great idea! Why wasn't I made aware of that earlier!?! Is there any progress being made on it, such as development?

When the new forum software comes out, I'm fairly sure this will be part of it. So far, everyone seems to support the stackexchange method of doing things (where the OP chooses the modified text or not).

Do you know when the new forum software is coming out? If so I hope it is implemented soon so I don't have a mental breakdown from reading these damn posts xD

It's been said, "dont be a dick." :p

I think it's based on the context. If they accidentally missed an apostrophe and used "its" instead of "it's," mayyyyybe you should just let it slide.

But if thery're like mahsing on a kedsyp[board it's probably fine to correct them even if they get pissy

Or of course you can tell the drunk typers to go be drunk elsewhere.. this occurred on a thread I was posting in earlier... It was quite hilarious.
