| Jun 7, 2022 at 6:15 | comment | added | G_B | @ThiefMaster If you see a spelling mistake in somebody's answer, a friendlier way to address it is by submitting a quiet edit rather than calling it out in comments. If you do feel the need to do it more visibly, I'd strongly recommend double-checking your own comment. It would be embarrassing to leave out an entire word that should go between two other words, while nitpicking somebody else's English ;-) | |
