Re: Re: (!tye) Re: Messaging authors of badly formatted posts

As far as root nodes, I think anyone can edit their own Snippet, Obfuscation, Tutorial and Craft. Probably some others too (reviews?), but basically anything that is not a question, a meditation, or a discussion. Things in Q&A can be edited by the Q&A editors. 95% of the things inside Nodes to Consider are uneditable root nodes, so the messaging would not really be much help in this case.

P.S. Hey tye you misspelled "badly". So did everyone else but I thought your o.c.d. would want to know. :) <g,d,&r>

LOL! Yes, it should have been spelled p-o-o-r-l-y. ;) Actually, my OCD (or something) makes me want to patch the e-mail program we use at work since the spelling checker keeps insisting on checking the spelling in the subject lines of replies. I didn't spell any of those words and I have the laziness (and perhaps tact) to not correct the spelling of my cow orkers. Not that I consider yours an untactful act -- I got a kick out of it. (: I'm starting to worry that if I manage to remain one of the janitors, I may have to fight the urge to make spelling corrections (or worse grammar corrections, which is just too over-the-top). Consider node; reason for consideration: (tye) mixed metaphors. O-: OK, stop correcting my spelling. I went to http://www.m-w.com/ more times for this node than I usually do in a weak. q-: - tye (but my friends call me "Tye")	[reply]
