Ron,

I have seen some forums that have a built-in spell check button that automatically checks your post before you submit it to the forums.  Is there any way we could implement such a system here?  I have seen and heard many complaints over spelling issues here, this may be one way to help resolve those issues.

I'm guessing you mean the spellchecker.net module, Michael, which has been available for the UBB for about a year? I just spent about 15 minutes looking for a thread floating around here somewhere where it was previously discussed - because a few people vouched for my own findings when I tried it in my test site.

Slow and unstable. When their server gets bogged down, it has a bad tendency to "eat" your post. Worst of all, because it has to engage Athena in conversation to do its magic, it has the ability to crash our server, too.
