Yup.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Need help please...

Even Walmart screws it up, with their official slogan: LOW PRICES EVERYDAY.
Why doesn't someone tell them that Every and Day are two separate words? :banghead:

Maybe they do it that way because their prices are everyday, i.e., not out of the ordinary! Makes it a pretty blah feature of Walmart, doesn't it?

That reminds me -- I haven't yet changed the air in my tires from summer weight to winter weight. Maybe that's why my Spyder's handling funny.

Hahaha.....I was wondering when someone would correct Ruralgirl for incorrectly correcting Peter:lecturef_smilie:. Seriously though, the number of times that autocorrect inserts punctuation where it shouldn't is astounding. I'm not quite sure WHO decided that would assist anyone typing. Correcting someone's keyboard spelling and punctuation is a minefield these days as many of the errors were actually created by autocorrect, not the poster.

I made that post before I saw Ruralgirl's post.
If Autocorrect is doing these things, I'm sure glad I don't have it hounding me. You're (not your) right, it IS a minefield.

How about "brake", and "break"?
One that surprises me a little is 'then' instead of 'than' but it appears fairly often - and I can't see how that one would be auto-correct!!
But auto-correct, especially auto-correct on Apple devices, certainly does stick its oar in a lot, and when it does, it often chooses the wrong spelling or word for the context.

EGADS, you're right!! I'm duly corrected and mortified!
pps: And I have no apps to blame it on!Here's a few. Use them if you need them.

Are those commas or apostrophes? As my backfired "correction" clearly shows, I can't tell the difference!!

I'm just guessing, but I think that the commas are on the bottom.
The apostrophes must be on top.

This thread is getting way over my head. I'm still trying to figure out how to use the word arseling.
Would it be correct to say the Spyder is an arseling trike? Or, should I say- Wood it be correct to say the Spyder is an arseling trike?
OJ UK, what say you? I've been watching The Last Kingdom on the BBC, and I found this word interesting.

Adverb[edit]
arseling (not comparable)
According to this from Wiktionary, it's an adverb; not an adjective... :dontknow:

Thanks. Since I've not named my Spyder yet, I will now christen my Spyder, arseling.

Just for the record: I sort of thought that it meant "tiny ass"... :dontknow:

That would be my guess, too. But when they're floating around without letters, I can't tell if they're flying high or low. And then there are those goofy ones with the dot just above them. I think they call 'em semi colons? Like the intestines of a big rig?

And someone needs to inform auto-"correct" that there IS a word "its" that DOESN'T have an apostrophe. I've ranted before about my pet peeve, but I just can't help it; the possessive form of the word is NOT spelled "it's". :banghead:
