- 0xEA 13y agoThis isn't one comment to HN with 127 spelling mistakes, it would be equivalent to 1000s of people as part of a collective group contributing 1000s of spelling mistakes over the past 15 years, then all of a sudden fixing a ton of the mistakes. Your argument is wrong but your point is correct. In the above scenario, should they be applauded for fixing 3 year old spelling mistakes that someone told them about 3 years ago...
- smackfu 13y agoWould someone criticize you for fixing them?
- stevoski 13y agoIf you posted something the length of Moby Dick, with 127 spelling mistakes, which you then corrected? No need to applaud, but no need to criticise...
