Mod edit - Sorry for hijacking your thread, Fury. I just thought it might be handy to put all typos and misspellings in one thread and make it sticky, so Forum can check and correct them at his leisure.
Please report the misspelled word, and the location. Give a link to the page for ease of use.

Just thought I would bring it up that when you read a in game message the word subject is spelled sublect lol.
Report typo's/spelling errors here

Things like this are brought up every now and then. That's why I thought we'd collect them in one place so people don't have to search anytime they encounter a typo.
As soon as you build an idiot proof system, somebody else builds a better idiot.
If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

A while ago, I made a thread, the people posted that it was pointless and I should'nt bother, but I will re-post it here, I just checked, these still seem to be in the attack logs:
*MackTheKnife was was commanding Divine Right, thier MotherShip.
Divine Right meets it head on!
was was - was
If there is no enemy mothership, so why does it say "Divine Right meets it head on!"? That may not be fixable.
Also, "thier" mothership, should be "The", or a possesive "His", but since you don't know if the player is male\female, this is probably not usable.
Changing the sentence structure of that seems a better idea though, change that to
"MackTheKnife, commanding the MotherShip Divine Right" Then
"Player X, in charge of the MotherShip HelloSailor" Then
"The 2 MotherShips close, and attack!" then
Battle stats for motherships.
*Careful and thourough observation records that the army
carried the following arsenal:
Thourough - Thorough
(That is a pretty badly worded sentence as well), perhaps "Your Military Records indicate your army used the following weapons:" would be better.
Perhaps use "The enemy army used the following weapons:"
*Putting down the chronicled battle report, you cross reference and call for the corrosponding military armory reports to see the state of your weapons after such a battle...
Corrosponding - Corresponding
Armory could be an american spelling though.

Ascension:
on self.php
On the conversions section, down at the bottom, where you convert the thing you take from main to ascension, into something usable in ascension:
and covert xxxxx xxxxx you are ready... xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxx are xxxxx 'xxxxx' from xxxxx xxxxxx.
Covert = Convert

Another one for the list: Mobile Assult Planet for NanoTiMasters (Armoury, Battle Reports, etc). Should have an extra "a" ie. assault.
Also in the NanoTiMaster armoury, Channeled Energy Weapon should be Channelled, although it could be an American variety of spelling.
Just checked, it's an Americanism...
