Sometimes when typing to too vfast eye I type completely different words dead that sound duh the same. Thanks for pointing that one out. And yes it should be 'accepted' :)

Me too!  :flowers: You can usually tell who is busy on these forums and who isn't by their responses and spelling. To perfect means to much time on their hands. :P

Mine has a spell checker, which did not help when I typed "excepted" instead of "accepted" and did not even help me avoiding replacing it correctly. I changed it into "accected" or something at first :) Luckily our forum has Bilbous to notify us of such errors :)

Oh boy! He is going to have his work cut out for him with me then. :P Perhaps Bilbous can post in his siggy that he is PlaneShifts spell checker.

So just gaze upon my posts Lanarel and you will feel like a spelling god! But just don't godmod it! ;)  ;D

har har.... well not too perfect too much of the time eh Zorbitol? errr, Zorbby, I mean Zorbels. hehheh. Mostly I do not bother if I am certain of the meaning, it is usually only when I am not sure whether English is a second language and someone might appreciate a pointer. Or of course I'm really really bored.....

Now I do not mind getting razzed a bit, I sure hope nobody will take offense if I bat the birdie back.

Maps have been decided long ago to lie with the players, not the developers. However what I do think we could use more is roadsigns and banners saying which road leads where and which area is which...

Oh, Zan - finally your prayer got heard! The 3-directional sign at the abandoned village in the Bronze Doors area has a matching description now, and there are now 3 road signs near the clacker pit between Hydlaa, fortress and Gugrontid.

Comes times, comes more of them!  :thumbup:
