That's how it works in the professional writing world. Yeah, writers have editors, but those editors are paid. So unless you are willing to pay someone...

What Jay is looking for is a very professional site that will attract lots of people including sponsors. If we have a site laden with typographical and grammatical errors, why would they want to advertise on us or for us? We have to each be our own system of checks and balances. Besides, automated spell checkers only find words that are spelled incorrectly. There are other ways to make typos. You could have a properly spelled word in the wrong place or being used incorrectly. Spell checkers will not catch that.


i was joking if i was going to post news i would write it up in word before i posted it. and you know cus you proof-read some of my stuff that i can be fairly proficent if i try.

also jay if you need any help with programing i am fairly good a java and am currently learning C and expect to learn C++ in the future so just send me an email on that front.


yeah i can seem to be able to edit either.
