How about showing your admiration for Alanna by learning to spell her name correctly?

How about doing that with all characters? I've erad stories where Kumar kisses Diane, Allana comes and watches and Onoua takes care of horses...

Kumar? ...is that supposed to be Numair? How on earth do you turn Numair into Kumar?

I thought Kumar might be Numair and Kaddar's illicit love-child.

But I don't think there has ever been an MPreg fic in this fandom.

nope, kumar was indeed numair. don't you people have spellcheck? didn't you read the books? personally i think it's worst when they get the easy ones wrong. Jonothon. Jonathon. Jonothan. how low can you sink?

Pretty low, as you can see.

Out of curiosity, do you remember what the story with Kumar was called?

no, but it was one of those ones just after ITROTG...I can just remember that I read about three chapters and it drove me nuts. (In case you didn't notice, I have a bit of a grammar tick...)

Not a capitalization one, though.

only when I write this kind of message. I really, really hate the red underline thing on spell-check, so half the time I make it add stuff like Dumbledore to the dictionary.

These names are sooo easy to spell correctly! Come on, peoples! The names are even being shortened half the time for pete's sake!

Mmhmm. I am friends with my spellchecker but it occasionally annoys the daylight savings time out of me. Like when I add a name, and then it doesn't recognize that, oh, "Kel's" is just the name I just added, but with an 's.

Da One Me to Pwn You All

I know what you mena, spell check doesn't do well with added words and 's. It is annoying.

The Diane thing is especially common, sadly... ALthough you'd think that a name like "Jonathan" would be spelled right, as it's one of the few real names in the books...
