One of my friends (the same guy that goes by the name "HOF ADMIN") keeps bugging me with all the typos on my site. So I hereby decleare hunting season on all typos (on the site that is, don't bother me with typos in my forum messages pleace :-D).

Whenever you find a typo in the HoF or as part of the forums (again: not inside messages), pleace either mail me or post a message in this thread.

Let's see if we can't clean things up a little.
(sorry about any typos in this message ;-P)

P.S. Make sure to mention where the typo is (what file and where on the page), that makes them easier to find for me ;-)

Fixed it.

Hmm, I'm starting to think spending another 30 seconds to spell-check everything I write might not be such a bad investment after all ;-)

At least I'm consistent ;-)

I've picked up a few bad habits over the years, to the great frustration of my last English teacher who found herself correcting the same mistakes in every paper I handed in...

It's supricingly hard to expundge such errors once they have lodged themselves into ones vocabulary...

*wanders off muttering under his breath*
s h o u l d, s h o u l d, s h o u l d, s c h ... damn!

Here's the deal. I only looked at parts of two pages. I'll look at the rest later. Also, I overlooked some grammatical errors. (I didn't include line numbers, as I wouldn't know how to go about that, with everyone's potentially different resolutions.) If you want me to be strict in my evaluation, say so. I can change things around greatly. I did make an "A" in my English 101 course last quarter. I made the Dean's List too. *Proud grin*

[I'll have to upload the file again to fix the last ones, I'll get them later on]

Palagran: Well, so long as I won't have to re-write the entire site you are welcome to point out gramatical errors...
