I found Pink Caddy's posted link to be interesting, it having proved my initial thought correct.
I also find your post, quoted here, to be rather rude.
It appears you don't like it when you're the one being corrected.
How utterly enjoyable!

Stalwarts my heiny. Give it up. I'm sure you have better things to do than accuse me of being a troll in a "writing" forum. (Notice the title of forum is not "Writing for Salwarts that Decry use of certain types of English as noted in the Oxford dictionary"). You prolly won't understand my point. Sorry for that, and as I said previously. . . end of story.

I guess that we will have to agree to disagree.
I'm sure that both of you prolly have the maturity to do that.
(I just wanted to make sure that I communicated in a style with which you are both comfortable).

Your style is very easy to understand. I was worried that I needed to take my responses down a notch for you but now I feel at ease.

Peace be with you my friend.

"...This may of been mentioned before..."

Why do so many folks think that's correct?????? I mean, I know there are some strange idiomatic expressions, but what do folks think "may of" could possibly mean???
