Quoting typos and laughing at the people who made them

There is now.

Lol imagine not having autocorrect.

For those who don’t know the rules (credit to ghid for the original rules):

  1. no quoting banned mebmers
  2. you cannot quote yoursef
  3. do not moldify the quote in any way
  4. If you got quoted and think the way its construed breaks site rules (or it breaks rule 9), flag the post
  5. you have to actualy quote the person using the quote function
  6. only one quot per post
  7. do not quote this topic or I will biye you
  8. quote must contaim a typo, preferably a funny one

And one new one. See, some people don’t like people making fun of their typos. Some people may not have english as their native language. I want this topic to be fun, not a place to bully people. We’re all here to laugh at ourselves. So our new rule:

  • YOU CAN ONLY QUOTE PEOPLE WHO’VE POSTED IN THIS TOPIC.

Yeah, I know, I’m a buzzkill. But that’s the best way I can think of to make this topic fair and fun. If you can laugh at other people, they can laugh at you. Also, consider this: I’m the first person volunteering to be made fun of.

:face_with_peeking_eye:

Also, yes, if you wish to submit yourself to being laughed at but don’t have a typo, you can feel free to just “sign up”. Partly because right now to enter you need a typo from me, and those are hard to find.

Have fun…

Racie, I think you are now the boards member I despise the most for putting so many typos in this topic. You’re forgiven, though, because you made this topic. The big game now is getting people to post here.

Here’s my questions: Is it only for misspellings, or are grammatical mistakes permissible as well? Additionally, we have to clarify what we found objectionable, correct?

I’m fair game for this. Have Racie’s fun at my expense if you like

I’d say maybe. Often grammar mistakes are more likely someone doesn’t know the rules, rather than a typo. But sometimes I mix up things like their and there by mistake and it’s funny.

Not necessarily. Some will be obvious. And sometimes half the fun is looking at your own post for a solid 30 seconds until you see the typo and feel silly.

I’m going to get quoted so many times because of my dyslexia.

I check my posts before and after posting them enough that I shouldn’t have anything here, but, if you find such a grammatical error, don’t hesitate to insert it herein.

Fate really decided to bite you with this one. Literally the first post i saw in the first unread topic i clicked on had this:

Also, really weird: the tittle on the first i gets pulled into the f in the post editor

To be fair, it was one of the few posts I’ve ever made in a hurry, without thoroughly checking it.

That’s probably why I missed it.

Heh, I get that… Google AI sometimes hallucinates stuff too.

I think you’re fine to fix it, I don’t think it messes up the quotes. Might have to refer to Racie.

[Edit so I don’t get reprimanded for double-posting]

hope you don’t mind this little cameo kitten

I hate to dissapoint, but…

It’s one of those obscure words I like using.

Oh yeah, almost missed this. Yes, you can edit the original post, but the quote will be uneffected. So this topic will retain the silliness.

Yeah, I tested it in a pm, and saw that it doesn’t change the quote so I already fixed it.
