    Spell checker please

    So I have dyslexia, and I do find it quite hard to spell some things sometimes especially with things like chocobo, basically words that are not recognized by a normal spellchecker, so names of objects like chocobo for example.

    I do however try my best and over the years have developed a number of ways that I am able to remember the correct order of spelling certain words, which doesn't guarantee I actually spell the word correctly, but I get close I guess or at least I hope I do. The way I spell some words does look right to me however it could be wrong, but that is the nature of dyslexia.

    I have recently however come across a group of people in Novice Network who have very awkward names, and I cant spell them, and these people were very funny towards me when I spelt their names incorrectly, it was just one time, but they made the biggest fuss, I decently apologized to these people and explained I have dyslexia and my incorrect spelling of their names was not meant to offend them and I simply asked in future that they just ignore any and all incorrect spelling. I thought they understood this and were going to be fine with this, they weren't.
    Since the first incident they have been correcting every single word I spell incorrectly, I do spell a large number of words incorrectly when I don't have a spell checker, I have asked them decently just to ignore it and again explained I have dyslexia. They just continue. I have blocked one or two of them, but when I blocked them their friends would then start pointing out my incorrect spelling of words.

    So the only way I could think of avoiding this is to ask if you could implement a spell checker, which would get ride of the majority of my issue and stop these others from harassing me because I spell things incorrectly. The game currently has no spell checker at all, and I do find it very awkward, I imagine a number of others do as well, Its also really upsetting when people constantly call you things like an idiot, stupid, and crazy because you have simply spelt some thing wrong and for some reason you spelling some thing incorrectly has caused them a great deal of offence.
