Theoldmole Old-Timey Member Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Does it bother anyone that on this forum, Mets gets flagged by the spellchecker, and Yankees does not?
Guest themetfairy Guests Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 The only excuse I can see for that is that Yankee has other meanings, while Mets really doesn't.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 When I type "Yankee" it autocorrects to "Asshole".
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I didn't even know the forum had a spell checker.I use the checker that defaults in Firefox. (Anything I misspell ends up getting underlined and I can fix it by right-clicking on the word.)
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I think Mole means if we on the forum are bothered by Firefox spell checking Mets and not Yankees , not that the forum has a checker.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I don't get Firefox errors for "Mets." (Maybe I added it to my dictionary? I don't remember.)I know it doesn't like "Sox."

seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Perhaps you should install the Street Spanish dictionary.
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Soupcan - "There's a spellcheck here?"My thoughts exactly when I read Mole's initial post. metirish - "I think Mole means if we on the forum are bothered by Firefox spell checking Mets and not Yankees , not that the forum has a checker."This makes sense and is probably right.
RealityChuck Old-Timey Member Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 It clearly shows that the Mets are unique. It can mean nothing else.
