Proofreading settings live in Users > Personal Settings

    Thanks a lot! I really appreciate the time you spend doing this. I spend a couple of hours going all over the settings to disable this feature.

    Thank you for the tip Yuji. I somewhat agree, disabling proofreading function within the site could help. Perhaps, it may cause a grammatical error. Marj, from an online editing and proofreading company.
