Spelling in thread titles
August 7, 2014 at 2:06 pm
I know this is nit-picking, but spelling mistakes in thread titles are really irritating.

Is it possible for the mods to correct them?

Is it possible for you to ignore them?
Also, hail, mein fellow grammar Nazi! Wie geht es?

It just irritates me, that's all. I can ignore mistakes in posts because I only read them once, but in titles they're there all the time.

I know the mods are busy people, though.

Potentially magical button to change the appearance of a title for one user only required.

What about mods who commit such infractions? Should they be fired?

As punishment, they have to watch an episode of 700 Club.

Really? You want to ask the mods to go around correcting spelling errors for people who can't be bothered to spell check their own posts?

You do understand that the staff here are volunteers, yes?

You don't have to be unpleasant about it, since I asked politely. I already pointed out that they're busy people.
