As developers, I feel like we as a community need to really work on our grammar/spelling.

    Can't really blame anyone. There is no edit option as of now.

    I don't blame anyone either. Not everyone here has English as their native language.

    Also mobile interfaces are not famous for their accurate text input ;)

    Since when did developers need to be perfect spellers, we spend most of our time writing code not authoring books.

    Not everyone here is a native English speaker! This community welcomes the entire world! Sometimes you need to overlook spelling errors

    @marcel - this was not meant as some kind of quasi-race bait statement, so please do not try and make it one.

    I just appreciate proper spelling and good grammar. Especially when reading a good rant. When there are misspellings and other issues, it sometimes makes it hard to follow along with what is being conveyed, which sucks when it's a great rant!

    Also, I agree that OUR community does do one of, if not, THE BEST job of welcoming the entire world (I mean we did invent the Internet after all), and I love that!

    So please remember the old adage before you comment: "when you ASSUME, you make an ASS out of U and ME"

    I even misspelled "you" for you ;)

    @smontana When there is no edit button, it can be fairly difficult to ensure correct spelling and grammar. Especially since the phone usually has a tiny keyboard and a bad autocorrect.

    The day the edit button gets implemented will be a great day.
