Deprec....depricat.....depr.....
Is there a correct way, at least consistent, way to spell that one word, deprecated or depriciated or....
Why couldn't they just say "Void" or "Obsolete"?
The other day, I bought a box of animal crackers. On the side, it said "Do Not Eat if Seal is Broken". I opened the box and sure enough...

depreciating is loosing value. Not quite void or obsolete yet but on its way.

I'm guessing comes from people like me who spell it 'depricated'

the confusion arises because there are two different words:
deprecate:
To express disapproval of, deplore.
To belittle, depreciate.
depreciate:
To lessen the price or value of.
To think or speak of as being of little worth; belittle.

Both are two different words, but at the same time they are synonyms of each other. Kindof confusing in that respect I guess

I'll go as far as to say even Americanisms are better than Wrongisms.
My question is, why deprecate? I understand the basic definition, but how long after an action has been deprectated will MM remove support for that code in the player? A year? 10 years?
Not really fair to leave the supported time period undefined. Then again, not really fair to remove successful useful code at all.
