In the box on source dogs pages that is headed 'Source Dogs' it says the following:
This is a source dog and does not have actual ancesteors.

Please can the spelling be checked and corrected?

Also, surely upcoming litters should be spelt with 1 'm' not 2 as it is currently ie 'upcomming' - it's really annoying

(Or am I being too English?)

No(lol)!

Good English is becoming a lost art. I know I'm not perfect but I try.

George is taller than Mike.
Not George is taller then Mike.

Mike went to the store then he went to school.

There is my house.
There is their house.
They're going into their house over there.

(There are a number of misspellings and various typos throughout the site - Jeff is sometimes a busy guy and doesn't always proof-read. Many of those have been there for years. We've got used to them)

The spelling mistakes may have been there for a long time and the gamers on here accepting of them, however that doesn't mean they shouldn't be pointed out, and corrected as soon as Jeffly possible.

They drive me nuts. But I guess it's not high on the list of fixes as they have been there for a long time.

IDK, the "keep me logged in" checkbox being for show drives me far more crazy than the few spelling mistakes.

If Keep Me Logged In could be fixed, I'd forgive all other glitches!!!

LMBO... oh yes... the "keep me logged in... NOT" button just drives me crazy lol

Yep - forgot about the non existant 'keep me logged in button' working.......grrrr

I found out the button for obedience under 'shows' on the left just takes you to a 'coming soon' - any chance that could be fixed.....pretty please

The issue with spelling was brought up over a year ago

every comment on that thread is valid - it is unprofessional and tbh should be an easy fix - please can these spelling mistakes be put right?

The thing about "easy fixes" is people rarely understand what is and isn't an "easy fix" in game code.

Having been both a game dev and a game QA tester for years, I can tell you that sometimes what you think is an "easy cosmetic fix" is hours of work that is a lower priority for the amount of time and testing it will take than things that are actually functionality bugs.

Cosmetic fixes are often put on lower priorities because you can fix something "simple", like wording, and accidentally break something else so that the time for the fix is way longer than allotted.

Not everything that looks simple, is.

I look simple, and I am lol
