"Oddball's Institute" implies that there is an Oddball, and that this is that singular entity's institute.

How about "Oddballs Institute" (plural), or at least "Oddballs' Institute" (plural possessive)?

Thank you.

First off, this should have been in the suggestions forum, if you want to get technical.

Second, you'd go insane trying to change every little detail when it comes to grammar and spelling. As long as the imperfections don't harm anyone in any way, why bother? The apostrophe didn't change the message that most of us got, and it's not part of a document that's being used to help fishkeepers.

Spelling and grammer mistakes annoy me too but this one I overlooked as well. It's more the messages that should be a problem, not necessarily the forum names. Some people can't spell for anything then expect everyone else to decipher their messages to help them.

Still, no harm in bringing up the forum name goof, just should be in the right forum or you get griped at.

All bad spellers will spend eternity roasting in the pits of Hell.

It's true.

Despite the fact that that's a cool trick, it doesn't pertain to the topic at hand.

As for those people roasting in hell, so be it.

I thought that we were talking about spelling and grammar??
and it's not a trick, just your brain works out the corect sequence of letters.

edit
notice the speling mistake?

I think it's ok to let punctuation slip a little but when i c ppl ritin lik dis i get slightly annoyed, if you speak English you should write it properly.
