Well, none of us is immune to the odd typo or occasional grammatical error, certainly not I after 50 years of exile.
However, it does surprise me to see how some mix up there, their and they're and how many on the other side of the pond forget the -ed at the end of a verb in simple past - or is that considered grammatically correct there?

PS:- Oh, and "would of" instead of would've (would have)!

I cannot tell you anything about the -ed, but many people posting on the internet use their, your etc. as a shorter form of they're, you're etc. (also to in lieu of too etc.).

I have been asked why Zeiss 8x60 blc and Nikon WX are GOATed. Goated is a way of saying someone/something is a GOAT=Greatest Of All Time.
