then i expect this place to go down hill fast as trolls and people who don't like or can't take criticism will edit their comments.
part of the good that was the old site was the fact that when you posted you cannot change what you posted, it forced you to think about what you post. it also helped keeping these two kinds of people in check as they can't edit their posts on a whim.

as for using it to correct errors, type your reply in a word processor then copy and paste it into the reply box.

You wont be able to edit your comments after someone has replied to them. And as for a word processor...just use Firefox, as it has it's own built in spell checker ~_~

Are we being cheeky or is there really a spell checker in FireFox?
And if so, how does one turn it on?

p.s. some blog servers do provide a spell checker for comments

Its in the new version Firefox 2.0
