    The new section of Sythe.org Support shows this:

    Sythe.org Support
    Users can help eachother out with Sythe.org issues and answer eachother's common queries here.

    It should probably be:


    Users can help each other out with Sythe.org issues and answer each other's common queries here.

    It would be "each other", because each and other are both adjectives. So they cannot be one word.

    "Eachother" would be an example of corrupt English. For example, you can see "any more" (e.g. Do you have any more cookies?) nowadays written as "anymore". Any and more are two distinct adjectives: you can't combine 'em!

    I heard they both can be used but "eachother" isn't used anymore.

    Your welcome lol

    I stated why they can't be used,
    They are both adjectives.

    This is confusing me. But try PM'ing an admin, they could probably defend their selection of words :p
