Secondly, you're a cunt.
Thirdly, pluralisation is a part of grammar. The word "reply" (a noun ending in a consonant + y) has a regular plural that drops the "y" and adds "ies". This is known as a grammatical rule. The offence therefore falls under the jurisdiction of both the Spelling Police and the Grammar Police. The latter acted here because the most likely cause for the misspelling lies in failure to comply with simple grammar rules... not to mention that the spelling officers appear to be on coffee and donut break most of the time.
Finally, the fact that you seem to be unfamiliar with grammatical rules for regular plurals immediately puts you on the watch list. Your login details have been handed over to the Grammar Terrorist Screening Center.
Yours sincerely,

Right on most accounts, especially the cunt bit. Still, grammar-nazi-ness on the internet is a bit fish in a barrel, and I'm personally of the belief that most people don't care and it isn't important enough to pick people out on.
