SirCorrectALot

SirCorrectALot is the name of a bot that scours forums and websites such as reddit.com for comments that misuse English - specifically 'thy' before a vowel (which should be 'thine').

Ideally, it will leave a comment as a reply to the offending comment, with a quote of the offending text before going into more detail.

The comment will include a correction of the offending word using the user's actual word and also provide an explaination:

"When 'thy' is followed by a word that begins with a vowel, it becomes 'thine'. So basically, the correct way to say it should be thine + userword"

Basic regular expressions should be used to account for all the different forms such as thy Thy THY etc.

More details to follow.
