Ian Macmillan Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 John: Balletfanp had a glorious typo earlier this evening on the Obsidian thread, that she (he?) put down to autocorrect. Is there an autocorrect function in the Forum software for, if there is, I'm wondering how I've never come across it. Or can it be a function of the browser in use?

alison Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I think they probably mean autocorrect on their smartphones or similar - I've seen the reference before. And I've seen two glorious ones this evening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletfanp Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 It's definitely a function on my phone and my tablet. I keep telling myself I must turn it off, but often it is quite useful, and besides, it would be a shame to miss out on the inadvertent laughs it occasionally gives me! Incidentally, there is actually a website called Damn You Autocorrect, which is a collection of unfortunate typos as a result of, you guessed it, autocorrect, some of which are hilarious (but be warned, some are quite "adult" in nature, which makes you wonder what the designers of the feature were thinking when they programmed them in!). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I'm still at a loss as to why my phone insists on calling me "Cliqmo" when I try signing off with my name 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
