Default Petition: Remove apostrophe's from the forum

I'm seriou's. The number of apostrophe's on thi's forum used in the wrong place's greatly outnumber the one's that are used correctly. Thi's mean's that disabling the apostrophe on thi's forum would actually improve the spelling.
The number of SuRGE's (Suicide's Related to Grammatical Error's). Ha's never been higher!

The number of other grammatical error's not related to apostrophe's far. outweighs the one's dealing with apostrophe's, sadly; If we could simply give people an education, perhap's it wouldn't be a problem. Good-luck with that~

I need something to yell at people about, their improper use of apostraphe's i's convenient.
Seriously though, we should do something to educate these mere mortal's in the proper use of grammar, not just apostraphe's.





/purposeful improper grammar

P.S. The next person who posts 'leet speek' in this thread is gonna get skinned alive.

I'm with you! You lot really should learn some basic grammar - it's not that hard! I don't think it annoys me in the same way it annoys omny, however, I sometimes find myself reading things multiple times until they actually start to make sense...!

I have a big issue with people who don't spell right. Maybe I just have high standards? I don't really know. But if you use an apostrophe in the right place it looks wonderful. I think that if you don't know where to put one...DON'T PUT ONE AT ALL.

/not signed by the way.
