Spellcheck
Unfortunately I'm terrible at spelling and I want to make sure when I respond or make comments on RP that I present them in the best possible fashion.

I'm just curious on how many RP members out there take the same time and effort to make sure they have a quality post and how many just could care less?

I like to use it for words that are "tricky". Usually I can look at a word & tell it is off.

Sometimes I look at posts & wonder if their spell check has bounced for insufficient funds :P

I pride myself on my spelling and grammar usage. These are cornerstones of written communications. I always look over any post, often editing for clarity.

I am always cottecting my spelling and grammar in all aspects of my life. Even while texting, I hate receiving messages with the wrong there, their, they're, to, too, two, etc. I guess I have my mom to thank for that pet peeve.

Honestly that's the only reason I pointed it out, found it a little amusing myself.
