What is correct SPAG?

[Marieh]

I use www.tritrans.com, but sometimes I only know the english word and then it's hard because I don't know the spelling lol

Just try the spelling you think it as at tritrans, and if it's not correct, they give you alternatives, and then you can check. www.dictionary.com is also good.

Ok, thanks

Do you have to use correct SPAG in PM's?

I guess not. Some members may prefer that you did, however.

I spell normally in PM's, I was just wondering. I thought maybe Mods could read everybody's PM's!

We would never enforce that rule; a private conversation between two members is not the moderators' concern (unless, of course, it is an offensive or nuisance PM, when we would take action after being informed).

However, if you're PMing one of us (particularly to apologise after receiving a SPAG warning!) then it's probably a good idea to try your best!!

That wasn't a 'dig' aimed at anyone in particular; more a refelection on some of the PMs I have received from members, such as:

"hey soz 4the bad spag m8 i qwill try hadrer (insert 27 smileys)"

Hmmmm ;-)

The administrators do have that ability, although they would never infringe on anyone's privacy unless absolutely necessary, eg. after receiving a complaint about a PM which the alleged sender disputed having sent.

They always make me laugh.

"sory dint realiz i ad 2 il use propa spag now" and such...
