	We all need to learn to forgive. Especially to forgive ourselves. If we cannot do this, it will be impossible to achieve enlightenment.

However, I haven't noticed the option either, and it DOES save time. Perhaps this should go in the suggestions thread? :?: Just a thought. -Slayer

I believe Opera has one as well if you enable it. *Edited to include new information.

It would actually know sword terms.

I'd rather have people think I'm stupid than type and have them know I'm stupid. Though my spelling has improved since I've joined msg. boards.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
