Yes, I spell check. Manually, because I have a spanish dict installed so it's worthless to let FF spell check. I check before posting and after, and edit if I see any mistake

 

Rofl. :P

 

I'll let you slide on the bad grammar, since it doesn't matter as long as it's easy to understand what you're saying. Hell, I don't even care about 100% grammar correctness in my own posts, because this is a message board!

 

But considering the nature of your post, that spelling mistake was just too funny to read. :P

 

EDIT: My god, right after I posted I realized you meant dictionary! I thought you were saying "disk".

 

My bad!

Hehe, I was just about to quote you and the edit appeared. I always thought dict was an acceptable abbreviation for dictionary...damn, now I gotta check

 

 

It looks a bit too much like dick imo. :P

I do a quick mental spell check. If I miss something then so be it, unless its a major screw up, which I fix with a re-edit of the post.

I'm not very anal about it though.

I use FF and force it to spell check anything I type.

Uhm, right click on the textarea and you can select which dictionary FF will use to spellcheck your text (you can have as many as you want installed)

Yeah, but it's a hassle to switch everytime. It's better to just manually check spelling
