    What are they trying to achieve correcting someone like that?

    I would imagine they’re trying to help you learn the correct way to spell? That’s not a bad thing. Especially if it helps others understand the meaning of what you’re trying to convey.

      Ive never seen someone with a comment history pattern of doing that, only people choosing to do it the once. And if they’re trying to help, why say it publicly and with ridicule?

        Fair enough. I don’t know your personal circumstances so can’t comment. But if someone did that to me I wouldn’t assume malicious intent. I just assume they’re trying to engage and be friendly.
