Forum:"The?"

Is there any particular reason that when I type the word "the" it gets saved as "teh" even if it was originally spelled T-H-E? Is this some sort of auto-correction thing? If so, I don't like it. Freedom of speech. I can spell my name however I damn well please. Grumble. --THE 21:19, 13 Novelniver 2008 (UTC)

"Thе" works fine for me ^_^ Jезка 21:23, 13 Novelniver 2008 (UTC)

It's caused by MediaWiki:Emoticons - the text at the bottom. Jезка 21:50, 13 Novelniver 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, Emotes is doing it, just a bit of harmless gimmick to give the site some life, we used to do it on the forum ages ago. Anyway, if its appearing in article space, its a bug, also, you name is THE not the. so you will be unaffected :P --Silent Penguin 22:13, 13 Novelniver 2008 (UTC)
When I first saw it I thought I was having a dyslexic attack! Jезка 22:21, 13 Novelniver 2008 (UTC)
hehehe, Also, i would like to point out that it doesnt replace save to the database as "teh" its running at load time on the server to replace the instance, so we can remove it at any time and the teh's will return to normal the's --Silent Penguin 22:34, 13 Novelniver 2008 (UTC)
