For some reason

The Scratch Team finds Spell Check offensive. At least that's basically what it said in a notification. What's wrong with editing peoples names anyway? Do that to me, and I wouldn't care. In fact, it's actually funny to me.

Re: For some reason

I don't get what's so offensive about spell check.  I wouldn't want my name edited, but my posts... who cares?

Re: For some reason

B wog, I also think it's strange to say spell check is offensive. I mean, who really cares.

(Let it be known, I downloaded Mozilla Firefox to put your name spell-checked in that.  lol )

kinda pointless since no one has really had a go at it with insults flying left and right, maybe in comments and projects that I don't see, but not on the forums

Fixing the quote name doesn't count as part of the persons post.

The Scratch Team loves Spell Check!  What they don't like to see is people being miss-quoted and having their names changed slightly - which looks like mockery.  It also looks like you are trying to get around the "no fake quotes" rule on a technicality  smile

Re: For some reason

SeaMonkey is my test accounts new name. But, sadly I wanted a different name for that account, changed it's password to something unmemorable, made a new account I forgot the password to, and now I want SeaMonkey vac.

One of the suggestions (Without the 2) is Paddle and lots of people call you that so I changed it  tongue
