Spell Check Please! :)
Some people on this site including me really suck at spelling sometime. Is there a way to get a spell check on here? Thanks!

Thanks! I remember other members mentioning it from time to time so I don't think I'll be the only one interested

Right now there is not a very good server-side option for vbulletin wrt spell checking.
One program that some have recommended (I have not tried this out) is iespell, which is an Internet Explorer plug-in that supposedly allows you to spell check before posting on websites, including forums.
If you try this out - let us know how it works.

I think you meant to use the "Assface is sexy" smilie. It's ok, that's a common mistake.

*sigh* yes it is very difficult to do from the server-side because 1) that means a dictionary needs to be maintained and 2) It will mean that non-dictionary words like Stoudemire, McCown, Assface, Bidwill and whatnot would be flagged on every post for correction.
I like the BIM system. Seems to work.

Well some people want to quitely know what words they've mispelled instead of being made fun at  I would just like a normal spellcheck like you have on an email where they just go through the words and let you skip the words you don't want changed....
