% Spelling mistakes

[Lord Snot]

Just an idea,

Given the amount of illiterate chavs posting rubbish on P.H (e.g. hydraulics for a Vectra) is it not possible to implement a spell checker that won't let you post unless a certain percentage of the post is spelled correctly? no?

Your spelling is not always measure of the person.

How about your grammar then?

Even that's shocking, Jim. Repeating a grammatical mistake like using the 2nd person where the 3rd person is more appropriate...tch...;)

Anyway, I would suspect parsing for spelling mistakes would a) be too process intensive for the hamsters and b) subject to all manner of variations due to "furrin" spellings.

Predictable, but funny nonetheless

A spell checker is hard to implement and would not be reliable in picking up 'the wrong sort' anyway.

You guys do a very good job of chasing them off with their tails between their legs, but if you ever need backup then just hit the report button and the mods will have a word with them to see if PH is really the right site for them.

True, but necessary. The target, spouting philosophy and such, was just too juicy.
