Good luck. . . been championing this cause since 1987. I'm thinking maybe we should see if he'll change his name.  | ||
| Crusty |
Hell no! Then I'll be wrong all the time for spelling it with a K! I got enough problems; Let's not add to them. | ||
| Ulywife |
Can "Eric" be highlighted during spell check? Maybe some people will take a second look. | ||
| Cochise |
get over it Boy, you sure do have an attitude, I haven't seen a post yet where you haven't contributed to something positively. | ||
| Skypephillis |
like i said get over it, if its the worst thing that happens today then count yourself lucky | ||

I dont see what the big deal is. A bunch of "grownups" fighting over the correct spelling of another HUMAN BEINGS name. God forbid someone spell crayon with a K. Sooooooooo, hows eriC doing these days?  | ||

A bunch of "grownups" fighting over the correct spelling of another HUMAN BEINGS name It's a matter of respect and courtesy. As my name is usually misspelled, I make a conscious effort to spell other's names correctly. Kristi (Christy, Christie, Kristie, Kristy, etc. you get the point.) | ||

Actually, it's in poor taste when the noobs show such little respect for something that has become common place on the BadWeB. It isn't really about spelling Erik's name correctly once the disrespect of calling someone for pointing it out sets in. Then it becomes a matter for all of BadWeB. It's like Cochise said. Many things are tolerated on the BadWeB but bringing a poor attitude on a constant basis isn't. Rocket | ||

Right, it's the little things that make the biggest difference. With a K! Kyle | ||

I'm right there with you Kristi. It only takes a second to pay attention and check. Amdanm, Schtiven and Michlae - it's a courtesy thing  Henrik (a.k.a Petrick Bo Hendrickson) | ||

Looks like I may have sold my Buell just in time, the atmosphere around this place is terrible at the moment. The response to the initial post was totally un-warranted, but sadly, it just seems to be the way this board is heading  | ||
| Xbrad9r |
hey Exitmonkey...(pun intended) if you sold your Buell why are you still dogging the rest of us...let it go...and I hope you are happy with your new bike and get lots of enjoyment from it. sorry someone or something here made you so sour. I enjoy this site, but realize it is comprised of human beings who each have their own feelings and opinions which sometimes don't match mine and occasionally even pi$$ me off, but I don't let it ruin my life...if you sold your Buell and you think this board is a terrible atmosphere, then you have the right to not view it...we are not sending you this info, you are coming in and looking at it. sorry to be so long winded, but if I hated a website so much I would quit going to it. | ||

oh boy another blood bath. A lot of P{Ms around here lately | ||
| Eboos |
There are people that I've known and worked with for years that still spell my name with a "c". It is very annoying. | ||
| Court |
Henric: Good point. Curt | ||
| Daves |
Court even learned how to spell my last name after spelling it wrong about 100 times | ||

"It's all fun and games till someone loses an eye.. then it's still fun , but you can 't see as well." Jack Handy I believe, I might have spelled his name wrong but I'm sure everyone here is understanding. FU#CKIN get over it. with a FFFFFFFFFFFF | ||

Dave S. Spelling your last name was not the challenge for me. Pronouncing it correctly was. I still find myself wanting to say it like Stew-Evie. | ||
| Slaughter |
It's STUEVE I'm STEVE (but go by Slaughter to avoid confusing people) Hope that clears up this issue (whhat issue?) ...now wait just one minute here... My Brother's middle name is Eric - did Mom mis-spell it on his birth certificate? WAIT JUST ONE MINUTE!!! ARE YOU DISRESPECTING MOM??? | ||
| Slaughter |
I'd like to add that I think this is a good thing this thread is posted in the XB section since we all know that NO OWNER of a Blast or Tuber would mis-spell Mr. Buell's first name! | ||
| Speedfreaks101 |
You sure it ain't spelled Airik? No matter I am very happy with my Bule. | ||
| Percyco |

I agree that mis-spelling the name is disrespectful. I've had my name spelled Brine, Bryan, Brain, Ryan, and others. It can get to you when people do it consistently. Brian |
