I'm sick of reading about characters that don't exist.

In the german version/language setting of any Zelda game, it is spelled Shiek. So people that are german like me are allowed to do it. :P

j/k, why does it even matter? It's not like every time someone spells it like that, a baby dies or something.

true, no one dies, but after years and years of it, it gets annoying..

I mean.. People who keep calling her 'shiek' have had quite some time to get it right.. I'm sure Falco mainers would be annoyed if for years upon years people called him Faclo, this goes for any character. I'm not pissed off or anything, just annoyed, and just saying what has been on my mind for some time.

Around the time Star Fox 64 came I out, I called Falco, Falcon up until I actually got the game.....lol

That Falco reference is completely different. Falco and Faclo sound different when you say it out loud, but Shiek and Sheik both end with an "eek" sound.


P.S. wow, I've been spelling Sheik wrong for a while!

I spell it both, I type both. If I offend the virtual *****, I'll kiss my TV screen so we can kiss and make up. I'll hold her hand through training. Make up for it by saying Princess Sheik. Oh my how you impress me with your flat chested self. =p

Pet peeve much? Seriously, you have to expect that fact that not everyone is as great at spelling as you. People typo, and people don't pay attention, get over it.

I also don't recall seeing a "c" in Sheik but I might be mistaken.
