Hi bungie,
I'm kind of new here but one thing I've noticed above all else on these forums is the terrible spelling! Are there any plans to add a spell check function like the one in hotmail?
Thanks guys,
Big love stacyk!

Update - Thanks to recon for providing a link to a internet based spell check. You'll find a link to it in his post.

That would be a nice new option. Though I'm still trying to figure out this whole forum...

I have one. I can't remember where I got it from. But a spell checker would be nice, although I don't think many people would use it.

But yeah, spell check would be nice...not that half the people in the forums would bother to use it.

You actually have typos Recon? :O

I thought the moderators had to survive getting beaten with a wet noodle if they spell incorrectly!

For those who are interested in a browser-based spell-check, I can recommend IEspell. It's saved me from more than a few embarrassing typos.


It would be good if that was in a sticky in the halo 3 forum. But i suppose not many people in there read the stickys anyway.

Actually I (when posting a huge reply) just C&P onto a word document and spell check.

Neat. I'm going to have to download that, as the Google toolbar spellchecker is insufficient.

Does anyone know how to put a link in my signature? I'd like to have IEspell in there.

  • 06.30.2006 3:29 PM PDT

Just add the URL into the tags listed on the right.

[url=X] XX [/url]

X - You put the link in there, (it has to have http:// -because the internet is stoopid)

XX - This is where you add something witty like "iEspell for future" and that's what it'll look like on display (hyperlink for short).
