Typos need to be fixed.
I think grammar and spelling are a huge priority of a website. I would be turned away if I saw typos or grammar mistakes on several different pages. I created this thread to help Jagex/Jelsoft fix all their typos on the website. I will be posting all typos I see on the site and i encourage everyone else to also.
I found a few before I thought of creating this thread, but I've lost those. For now, I have one typo in mind.
Url: planetarion.com
Area: Top right sidebar
Text: Round 38 Signups is open!!
Fix: Round 38 Signups are open!!
Now I have to learn to play the game.

Good luck with that.

Re: Typos need to be fixed.
Jagex will fix them. Though I don't know if they have access to things like that yet...

They don't. And I'll get that fixed
Edit: sorry, this has been fixed by Cin already

Re: Typos need to be fixed.
Well....actually, there's only one "sign-up", so the correct wording would be:
"Round 38 Sign-Up is Open!"

Re: Typos need to be fixed.
Thanks for the speedy fix.
I'll be sure to make note of any other typos here...

Re: Typos need to be fixed.
I'm trying to find the one I found once I got here....
I found another;Page - What is planetarion - 6th paragraph, 3rd sentence
Quote:
This might sound like pretty standard stuff but remember the twist is that Planetarion plays even though you re not logged on
|
"you re" should be you're or you are.
I'm'a head out for now and leave you guys alone.
I'll be back later to bug you with more typos though.

You are correcting explicit mistakes here rather than focussing on something far more important, the sentence as a whole. The grammar and the meaning behind the sentence is poorly expressed.

True... It does seem like it was written quickly. I don't know if I should put out anymore mistakes, though, because I think Jagex may be making a whole new site. :O i don't want to waste everyone's time...

Pointing out mistakes is not wasting anyone's time except for maybe your own. Overall it is good if people point out issues. :-)
Also, welcome to the forums, be aware that there are quite a few trolls around.
