Is there a way to stop those annoying pop-up "tips" when composing in Yahoo Answer?
You know, I'm still composing an answer or question, right? So I type a word that's not in Yahoo's dictionary, but it happens to be in mine. And the bloody thing has to pop up a little note on the right that says 'Oops! it looks like you have N of misspellings!" Or, if I put a sentence in quotations, it'll pop-up, "Hmmm...it looks like you have a lot of punctuation."
You know, I have been correctly punctuating and spelling since before these Yahoo programmers were born! I don't need or want any of their "help!"
But I DO need help in turning the nonsense OFF.
PERMANENTLY.

There is no way to turn it off it's programmed into the system.
There's thousands of people like me that need it.
Plus, more that should use it. :)

Hey,I asked a question about airport security this morning & received 5, (good) replies. Someone asked what was the best fragrance to go with a baby blue tank top & got 44 responses. Does that say something about the mentality of Yahoo Answers ,answerers?

I totally agree with you that they are so annoying. I won many spelling bee's as a young person
and I don't need this. Sometimes it pops up and it's wrong wrong wrong. I typed my daughter's
name and it popped up. lol
