Since I couldn't post this in the Website Features Section as there was no "New Thread" button there, so posting this suggestion here:
What do you all think about spelling/grammar check before trying to post a comment/reply? I know there is a Spell Check there, but it takes you to another website. I was thinking more of a built in one when trying to type a comment or reply.
It will have red wavey underlines if you made spelling errors and green for grammar. Kind of like the old Microsoft Works from Windows 98.

No, speak freely from your mind! Let such boundaries as spelling not block your mighty path!
LET YOUR SOUL FREE!!
Uh... I mean, no, I hate spellcheck. Gets on my nerves. I despise it. I hate it's very existance. Even if I disable it, it's presence on my harddrive irritates me. |

Yeah, spelling's not hard.
I know people with serious dyslexia who can spell better than some people here. :/ |

Spell what? Cuz "cuz", you already interpret as "because". That's communication. No need to "spell" things.
Spelling means to write or print the letters of in a particular way. So technically you're making us write/type a partuicular way YOU want. That's not fair. It's like saying "talk English!" when you know you can perfectly understand Spanish, but it's just easier to read English.
In my country, a lot of people fail Spanish class because it's too proper lmao. We are human, don't let any chains bound you (;

Chrome warns about your spellings underlined with red, and about grammar you have to pay more attention in your classroom. I still suck at writing proper English with proper grammar and punctuation.

Brick, cuz is actually a word. I guarantee that it's in an Oxford dictionary revision.
Any words or synonyms like that which are very common are usually made official just to avoid confusion.
Some people can still spell 'cuz' incorrectly though cus they don't pay attention to the lettering of words. |

Lessons we can take from this thread.
1) The site already has spell checker.
2) Google Chrome has spell checker.
3) Spelling is not very important as long as we can understand what is being said.
4) Language evolves constantly, changing our views on words, spelling and grammar.
5) Ninja's solutions are the most practical.
If this will turn into another debate thread, start up a language debate in the correct forum if you would be so kind, sirs.
