    "lf inscriptionist"

    No, just no..

    There's always the classic "what's the dayli blabla".
    This was even worse when the correct spelling was written in the quest-log.......

    It's probably worth noting that I play principally on a Spanish language realm (Quel'Thalas) and there are some great "Engrish" style Spanglish moments on there.

    For example: "Quien falta de summon?" or "La ultima semana lfr me dio el mismo item" and it's always fun people asking about somebody looking for a mate for "bg", which is 50% used for "battlegrounds" and the other 50% "buscando grupo" or "LFD". Good times.

    Definitely has to be "Rouge".

    "Inscriptionist" is a close second.

    A new one i've seen/heard recently is "Terrance" of Endless Spring.

    So I chose the path of the Ebon Blade, and not a day passes where i've regretted it.

    It's Tailor... .___.

    Those mentioned here like enchancement shaman, rouge, duel spec.

    In general everybody that adds a space before the period to end their sentence. Fortunately, in-game, most people type in short sentences.

    Speaking of which, wasn't the tooltip of the Orgrimmar portal written Ogrimmar for the full duration of 5.0?

    When people say PST me, or use it as the actual sound "pssst". Not sure if that counts though. Only others for me are "Inscriptionist" and "Tailorer".

    Then/than, would of, rouge, my own name spelt in the most absurd possible ways.

    Remarkable ones:
    -Brb (we all know it means "be right back", but a guy i always kept finding while running heroic level 80 instances during Cata used to say that, and then LEAVE. Everyone went WTF, obviously. "Hey guys, i'll be right back!" -Guy has left the group-
    Basically, brb now means g2g. I don't even...

    -Not a "common" error, but:
    "LFM THONRE OF TEH FUOR WNIDS JSUT NEED 2DPSERS LAST SPOT GOGOGO"
    I lost my left eye that day.

    "loose" instead of "lose"

    People who say "the outlands"

    People who say "duskwallow" instead of DUSTwallow

    and then the general "their" "they're" and "there," and similar things.

    I definately want to cast slower.
    ...here's another one.
