I think that you should have usernames listed in the correction box with their proper capitolization.

Like if I type "nutzy" or "nuttzy" or "nutzee" then it will give me the suggestion "Nuttzy99" because that is a username.

Or if I type pikldweasel then it should give me the suggestion Pickled_Weasel666.

Or it could have the suggestions in a different color or have an asterisk next to it.

Example of what I am thinking


"nutzy"

Suggestions

Nutty
Nuttzy99
Nut
Nuts


In other words, have usernames in the word database.

Sounds nice but as you can maybe have a personal dictionnary, this is possible

It is a worthy idea, but I'm not so sure if it is possible (it is just not easily). It actually could turn into a bad idea though. What if you have a user by the name of "teh"? Then you'll never catch that one, and trust me people would take glee in screwing it up Wink It's the nature of the beast.

Yeah, I don't think this is doable.

What about only checking for usernames inside the [quote="username"] block of BBCode? Is that possible?
