In the forum name the word optimization is spelled wrong. On the site its spelled "Optimisation" when it should be "Optimization"
for reference: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=optimisation&btnG=Google+Search
just giving a heads up 
If I'm not mistaken, "optimize" is what becomes of british "optimise" in American english.
words like "optimise", "realise" are the british versions and you get their American counterparts by replacing the "s" with "z". ("optimize", "realize").
so technically it's not wrong.

edit - contrary to my original post, the words with "z" are American and those with "s" are British. (from Merriam-webster online )

There are many more like it.
It is just a matter of origin, not of incorrection.
damn. didn't he even know that british and american english are spelt differently?
it doesn't matter when we all knows what it refers
I even combine between the two sometimes. xD

Wrong is most aprropriately used as an adjective or noun, and sometimes a verb. Rarely is wrong an adverb.
