Something weird
« on: December 03, 2008, 01:35:46 AM »
So I noticed a while back, that in a particular post, Tom appeared to have difficulty spelling the word "Madness," transposing the D and N ("Mandess").  It turned out that there was nothing in the language filter to cause that to happen, that I could see, so I added an entry to turn the misspelling of the word back to Madness, and that fixed it.

Then I noticed today that in one of Kat's posts, a similar thing was happening to "Badness" (changing to "Bandess").  So I replaced the "Mandess => Madness" entry with a "ndess => dness" entry...  Ya know, figuring that would fix your "Madness", your "Badness", your "Sadness" and so on...

Well just for shits and giggles, I took another look at the language filter just now, and as it turns out, upon closer inspection, there was an entry to fix "adn," the common misspelling of "and."  So that was what was causing it all along.

So...  Whomever the person was who setup "adn" in the language filter, is who's fault it was  :P

I agree with Joe. You do need a hobby.

I just started seeing Sandness so often I figured it was intentional...

Oh, what a horrible inconsiderate person! Who would do such a thing?

They should be boiled with their own pudding.

LOL!

Hmm...  Robin must have done it!!!

And yeah, I know it was no one's fault really...  And I just remember we were considering putting a few other common misspellings in there, and I can only imagine what some of the additional consequences would be :-)

I almost put 'teh' = 'the' in there, but then I realized that my 'Teh Harano' thread would lose some of its charm.

OH TEH NOEZ! TEH HARANOZ!'
