Thread: Most annoying text bugs?

I'm starting to go through the bug database to fix up misc. text bugs. Other than Loading Screen bugs (separate thread for that), what text bugs annoy you most? I'm talking about grammatical, spelling, boxes in place of punctuation, etc. Please give as much detail as you can to help me locate these guys in the text tool.
(Please note, I have no programming skills to speak of, so this "low level" task is not taking away from any designer fixing the top issues).
Thanks for the second set of eyes.
When I tried to place a fusion generator within city limits, I receiveda message saying that the mayor or the city militia needed to grants rights. Militia is spelled incorrectly in the message....miltia, I believe.

at novice/apprentice you get one spelling and at master the other
The only text bug that comes to mind is one that I see fairly frequently due to style of gameplay.
I use a macro for looting. The macro is designed to both loot and harvest the corpse all at the same time. The macro uses the /loot and /harvest commands. When I run this macro on an NPC corpse, I get a message in response to the /harvest command that tells me I can't harvest the corpse of '%TT', rather than the name of the corpse.
VERY irritating.
I dont know if anyone has mentioned this yet:
Every time I try to Exit my Swoop bike, it first gives the option of Enter Vehecle andvice versain the radial menue.So I have to choose 'Enter' from the radial menuefirst (Although I'm already riding it) and endure a message that says "you cannot enter anything while mounted". I have toclick the radial menue for the second time to actually be able todismount.
