Today, I corrected someone who spelled "learned" as "learnt" on my favorite forum. Nothing could've prepared me for the torrent of abuse that followed from the non-American members. Now I'm banned for "trolling," and all my 7,000+ posts since 2006 are gone forever. FML

I guess it's better to not correct people on the interwebs.. Usually just causes pointless debates. Learn to just let it go... Still FYL.

Your life sucks, but be prepared for a battle. I have seen a lot of comments saying you were wrong to correct someone, but I think you have every right to. Nothing frosts my mug more than the little "alot" instead of a lot, or the "would of" instead of the correct "would have" or...one more here "I seen"...wtf were these people doing in school when they should have been learning.

YDI for assuming your American way is the correct way... The continental US is not the center of the universe... On a side note it is shocking how many here comment about the OP and that "He" deserved it for correcting... Where the post clearly states that the OP is female...

I am sorry but YDI, for being a grammar nazi. Also 7000+ post. That is about 2-3 post a day. So YDI for having a forum take over your life.

2-3 post a day is not that many, how many FML comments do you make daily? OP never stated how long the post were, and personally it doesn't take me long to write a long post.
