spelling mistake
« on: August 29, 2004, 11:35:35 pm »
Hey,

I dunno if I need to post it here, but i found a spell mistake on the new section about cheats.
Normally it doesn;t matter, but it\'s in the title so i thought let\'s help in case the PS team didn\'t saw it :P
More people might have seen it, but it looks unprofessional when the\'re spelling mistake\'s on the main site in my opinion.

....
Isn\'t cheating useful?    
In single player games  surely it is. It happens many times to be in an adventure game stuck at a certain point and no way to get around it, or to be facing an incredibly powerful monster in a first person shooter game, and have no way to solve it just because ........  

Usefull is with two L\'s :)
This post can be deleted as soon as it\'s fixed :)
And sorry for posting this on the wrong forum if it is.

Useful has one l, not two. Although on the news post is says alware instead of aware in the beginning of the second paragraph.

On the cheating page of the guide at the very last line it says partecipate instead of participate.

Oh Toadhead, while we are on the topic...

\"Post here you\'re spelling mistakes\"

That should be your, not you\'re
You\'re is an conjunction (think that\'s the right word)
of YOU and ARE

haha thanks Karakth..
I never noticed that...
I originally had adjunction, then decided that looked wrong, changed it to conjunction and left the \'an\'

Well whilst we are all being pedantic;
Second paragraph -  one of hackers - should be one off hackers, I assume.

Does it really matter if the spelling is perfect? As long as you understand what is said, who the hell gives a shit whether or not \"aware\" or \"useful\" is spelled right?

blah...

Well it\'s fixed in a few seconds so why not tell it so they can fix it?

I just want to help, I don\'t want to piss them off by telling them what they are doing wrong.

Moogie says: Talad writes the news and stuff on the website, and his English isn\'t perfect, but at least it\'s understandable *glances over to Sep gnawing a glass* :P

I do question his sanity sometimes...

Oh, yes, sorry for my english. Any hint is appreciated, I agree that the official site must have a professional look and spelling errors do not help with that.
