When your thread title says, just for example, "here toy go", but you meant for it to say "here you go". You can go to the first post, click the edit button, and edit the title.

I see people all the time mess up their spelling or grammar, or even post the wrong information, such as XD-40 in the title when they meant XD-9, but for some reason people do not edit the title. They will even apologize several times in the thread for their mistake, but never just simply hit the edit button on the first post, and fix the title.

I guess not everyone knows this.

Now that you've decided to be a nag, I don't think I'll fix the word "twon" to its proper spelling of "town" on my thread title.

All I have is "Report". But I can click that thing until the cows come home and I still don't ever hear a gunshot, or receive a piece of paper with a graph on it.

I did not even see it. I don't mean to nag, but I guess it is the analytical in me. I can't stand to see something I have done wrong, stay wrong if it is within my power to fix.

This thread is about using the Edit button to correct spelling errors.

You all misspelled JELL-O
