Pointing out irrelevant spelling errors....

[Sparklingbrook]

Can this be made 'against Talk Guidelines' please? Where the spelling error is pointed out but everyone knew full well what was meant?

I can then report.

TIA

I found a little picture, very PA though:

I only did this once the other day when someone was being really judgy about something dull that did not matter, and I corrected her spelling in retaliation.

I was making a point.

Is that alright?

Bit of a grey area Rooners. If the OP is being an arse-does that make it ok to correct them?

I think most of the people on mumsnet who correct other people's spelling do so for the same reason Rooners. It's passive aggressive and unproductive. There are more effective ways to make your point.

It's time for my favourite pic.

But it wasn't like that. Really. I would never normally do it but the context required someone to do something.
