Let's face it, we all complain about those select individuals who make so many grammatical errors we can't comprehend what they're trying to get across; it's just straight annoying. I know we ALL make grammatical errors unless we're English majors in university. Anyways, my idea is that Roblox build in an auto-correct system, and/or a spell check system (much like Google Chrome's/Microsoft Word's), so we have less people to complain about.
Pros: -Some people may not actually know how to spell something, so this could help them bring their English skills up as well as avoiding trolls. -Better overall spelling/grammar in the whole community. -Individuals appearing smarter.
Cons: -People paying no attention and posting with many errors, although this could be avoided with some sort of "warning" system before you post. -OT wouldn't be able to troll as well.
Support? Ideas? |

I highly disagree with autochecks. Most people are unaware of homphones (Roblox blocks the full word*) and it could auto-correct to the wrong word.

| Well, let's throw out the idea of an auto correct feature and just make this more of a proof reading bot; like in Microsoft word, it would just underline the words that need to be corrected. |

Grammar is a rule on the forums. If you cannot spell, you should not be on the internet.
And BTW, Grammar does not equal Spelling. |

28,
It is shocking how many people on this forum don't understand the difference between spelling, punctuation and grammar.

| Freezing what he is saying is like on Microsoft Word. It will underline the mispelled word. You dont have to fix it. It just tells you that word may be spelled wrong. |

Yes, I like this idea. Those that can't spell and those that try to spell, but can't.

I disagree.
This is a children's site. I know they should learn how to spell stuff correctly, but it'll just be...annoying. So when you say something like 'lol' that would be stated as wrong. I know it is, kind of, because it isn't a word, but it's text language. I don't think it would be as bad, though, if it was just for the forums (because you need to try and use grammar here.) |

Thank you for more support, it's appreciated.
Also, DooDee, you do realize that this website has been designed as a children's website to help them with life skills such as social interactions and such, right? You also realize that Roblox can add/subtract words to the correct word list. Thank you for the half support, though? |
