Nitpick...Moral vs. Morale

from Stardock Forums
Okay, I've been holding my tongue on this for awhile, but this chronic spelling error for the word 'morale' is driving me nuts. :sniff!:

Morale, with an 'e' is what most people are trying to say, but are instead saying 'moral' which is the meaning of a story, or in the usage of 'morals' the difference between good and evil.

So, please, add that 'e' and your posts will look much better. Thanks! :D

Actually, perhaps you're trying to criticize the nitpickers wampyre, but I have noticed a multitude of spelling and grammatical errors in the game. Perhaps that is nitpicky, but it's also distracting and annoying when the user has to stop and try to figure out what a particular sentence means, rather than how it impacts one's empire.

Note to all: never pluralize with an apostrophe. Just don't. Honestly, where do people learn that? Are they teaching it in schools these days?

Still, it's a small issue and easily resolved. Stardock would be well-advised to hire a proofreader. It's cheap and quick, and there are many, many small little mistakes scattered throughout the game.
