Yes, the link SNB posted is in the non-english excel group. I will send it forward to be corrected.
Since the issue is in the Non-English Forum, perhaps "Forums" is correct in one or more languages? Esperanto? Navajo? It's gotta be correct in one of the thousands of languages/dialects out there.
Not in the combination with 'rules'; the french 'rulles' means something completely different.
It could also be Forum's Rules

nope.. it is just one forum. so forum rules is correct, forum's is wrong it's not English
I don't see the grammatical error:
When reading the forum’s rules, I noticed a mistake.
When I read the forum rules, I noticed a mistake.
Nothing personal, Martin, but it's humorous seeing one of the least grammatically-correct English-language posts commenting about a typo.
Improper punctuation, capitalization and even malformed ellipses (thanks to kakapoo for pointing that out elsewhere)... oh my!nope.. it is just one forum. so forum rules is correct, forum's is wrong it's not English
Plus, the Non-English sub-forum was created by English administrators well before the current owners arrived. If only we could all be perfect.
(Note: In Texas, adding "y'all" to the end of any of those sentences would have been acceptable, if not required.)
err where is the error ? this forum changes most caps to lower case at random. Anyway I'm English so i must be right. Everyone else is wrong, especially those from across the pond who never learnt to spell anyway!
I still say that "forums rules" or "forum's rules" is wrong. Unless in the latter preceded by "the"or maybe "this".
"forums rules" refers to many forums ,this is just one.
what is grammatically incorrect with that? ok so "nope" is slang. and/it/but/so used to be disallowed but is now common practice. Ask ms word! oh my mistake that's American English so it must be wrong!Nope. It is just one forum. So forum rules is correct, forum's is wrong it's not English
After all we all know the abbreviation for mathematics is maths not math
math comes up error in every spell checker!

Maybe you should report that, then.this forum changes most caps to lower case at random
Of course being English makes you always right. Except for that whole taxation vs representation thing a few hundred years ago. And believing that Margaret Thatcher was really a woman. And men wearing skirts. But I digress.
PS - I'm 50% Scottish, but you won't catch me going commando in a kilt.
50% commando would be a thong.
50% Scottish is not something to boast about. That should be kept secret.
I only mentioned it because I'm in good company. When travelling I usually tell people I'm Canadian and love Scooby Doo. (Thanks, Eddie.)
lol that is funny
