Its not going to matter weather or not you correct these mistakes.
They're still going to be made, so your just going to have to stomach it.
In the end, we all loose.  ^_^

       Not really.  I guess we all just have to C&C harder.  As long as
it's only an isolated incident, I can stomach that.  If it is the same mistake
made over and over, it's gonna get some personal attention and a lot
of correction.  <Are you aware that you are using those words incorrectly?

Edward.  I do see that smiley)

       BTW, if you say it aloud, "loose" and "lose" don't really sound
the same.  One has a "s" sound while the other has a "z" sound.  Am
I the only one who hears the difference?

Mihoshi hears the difference, and would sooner understand 'looz' as a
mispelling than 'loose' o.o
