Must stop reading WoW forums

I swear, my biggest WoW pet peeve has to be people who spell "rogue" as "rouge".

What? You're level 31 cosmetics? I don't understand...

Oh sure...

Like you never transposed letters...

And no, spellcheck DOESN'T catch it, and no, proof reading DOESN'T work... It's got something to do with the whole "First and last letters in the right spot, and all the right letters" contextual reading thing...

Then again, some of us just can't spell for crap...

It's one thing if you can't spell for crap. I mean, sometimes, I can't spell for crap.

But it's when someone spells the name of the class that appears on their login screen...

Besides, it's a pet peeve. It doesn't have to make sense.

I too hate this with a passion. Don't even get Grim started on it :o)

He wrote a whole section in Munchkins about it, didn't he?

I don't remember. I haven't read the book in ages.

My BF tends to greet that with "oh, really? What color?"

(He wanted me to ask what you play and what level you are, btw. He posts in the warlock section of the forums fairly regularly.)

I play on Argent Dawn. I have a 22nd level Hunter (Dwarf) and a 18th level Rogue (Human). Might be making a Night Elf Warrior soon. (Yes, I seem to prefere Alliance.)

Okay, my Warlock isn't that high a level. Yet.
