That's a good idea (and a damn funny one to boot) but I don't think it would work like that. I think it would take up too much memory (or whatever the site needs to keep running). Do you have another suggestion on how to correct bad grammar?

Since there's no smilie in your post I'll take it that your serious and that Kool-Aid isn't very popular in the U.K. Kool-Aid is a powder that when mix with water and ALOT of sugar makes a delicious (at least IMO) juice that can come in many different flavors. I think TheDeadWalk was referencing how people are either too hyperactive and immature or are too young to type well (Kool-Aid is a kid's drink. Althought I myself do partake in it whever I'm a theater that makes the stuff). Does this answer your question?

Interesting hypothesis MacReady, but rather faulty.
When people in recent times act in strange manners, especially when in groups, outside voyeurs would occassionally state that whatever the insanity was, it was "In the water."
Kool-Aid, while a child's drink, is more referrably a drink from the streets of poverty, hence it's only around .10 cents for a package. But the mere name we shall look at: "Kool", which is an obvious reference to the American slang term "cool", which means as Huey Lewis once stated: "Hip to be square."
So in ending, nearly all visitors of this thread (With the exception of MacReady and James Logan [- go figure] ) have typed their first line as an improper grammatical joke. Hence the term "They are all drinking the kool-aid", and the following fact that we're all just too damn cool for school.

I dont want none of your Kool-Aid. Its probably got strychnine in it and then I'll be like the guy in Road Trip who drinks it and dies and everyone changes their minds and leaves my carcass in the middle of an open field for the flies and worms to feast on and then I'll make front page country-wide news as a stupid message board person who was 'depressed' and took his own life by drinking Strychnine laced Kool-Aid and a big investigation will be launched into the moral values of websites with message boards and FBI dudes will be lurking around on these boards scanning through every thread just waiting for someone to mention Kool-Aid so that they can track them down and place them in jail for aiding in the suicide of a depressed person who was labeled a schmoe by people who didnt consider him a part of thier ridiculous cult and I will just be no part of that, no sirs. You keep your goddamn Kool-Aid away from me you message board psychos!
;) :D
(btw way, im not the least bit depressed by anything, that way no one is concerned)

You're the rebel. I'm just the souless puppet who makes bland observation from time to time.

Would the system check for redundancy, and proper use of prepositions?
Maybe it could offer suggestions in red:
"We're sorry. Your post cannot be completed. It does not meet the grammatical standards of Joblo.com. Please try again."
I think a system that sophisticated would be too difficult to manage. Not to mention accidentle mistypes.
English usage doesn't bother me too much on the net, keeping in mind there are many people here who speak it as a second, or third language.
As long as people don't act like jerks, like I was acting above by nitpicking, I don't think such a complicated system would be necessary.

I believe that's a run-on sentence. Now do it again, with periods and commas and such...:D
