It's Starphire not starfire.

I don't really mind all the misspellings, typos or grammatical errors littering the forum(s). My brain usually process them fine. What drives me bonkers is when I step into a LFS and start talking the talk only to get tripped up by words that virtually everyone pronounces differently. How the heck do you pronounced Acropora, Giessemann, copepod, zeovit, etc..

Have you ever tried to sound knowledgeable without actually saying any of those words?... I stay home for this very reason

Haha yeah me too! I'm pretty useless without google and that only tells you how to spell it

I agree with others, spelling and gramma aren't important in a social environment like this forum but it does bother me in the proffesional world. I actually get a kick out of things like that around here, often it's quite funny but it certainly never bothers me.

Sphelps for the win. I'll be scrolling down a thread and as SOON as my eyes pickup a repeat picture I get pretty annoyed. And of course 10 others usually follow. I will occasionally repost a single picture if I'm referring to it and it's not a very recent post.

I guess the second thing (and I'm joking guys) would BE Sphelps himself. He knows a buttload about a surprisingly broad array of topics which makes debate difficult since I don't.
