How to deal with grammar complaints....

[mandas_whack]

Like many of the users on this site, I have a difficult time becoming immersed in teases which sport terrible grammar, bad spelling, lack of punctuation, etc. There are tons of posts about it in the forums - but the bottom line is simply that most people are terrible at English skills.

I, for one, always do my best to use proper grammar, punctuation, etc., but I'm not going to just waste everyone's time complaining. In fact, I actually want to help!

So I'll present to you all this limited-time offer: PM me if you'd like your English checked in your new tease! I'll be happy to go through it and send you corrections so you can have a more enjoyable tease! You'll get the naggers off your back, get higher ratings, and people who care about this sort of thing will be able to enjoy more teases! I believe this arrangement will be win-win. (Of course, since this is volunteer work, I'm not going to sit through a bunch of timers on a flash tease - so just normal click-through teases, please)

I'd also encourage any other English sticklers to offer their services as well. Together, we can make this site MUCH better...

Even though I am originally from the Netherlands and actually still live there, I feel that my English is pretty good. If needed, I will also offer my services for these so-called grammar complaints.


Of course, it is not needed. But at least I offered to help out

I just wanted to offer my services too. I can only help with English written teases though.

As a site/forum suggestion it would be great if the Milovana team set up a group for this; a group like TOTM Club which would list the members that are willing to help proofread and or test teases before they are published. Such a group would make it easier for others to find members that are willing to help.

Thanks,

That might actually be helpful. Set up a "Volunteer Editor" program of some sort.
Just an easy, quick reference link somewhere so that authors can easily find some folks willing to help them edit their teases.

Offers are always out there, but I think when it comes time to publish, many may just not know who's willing to help out. A group like this might make that easier.

Happy to lend a hand myself, but definately don't want to spam the board with endless offers of assistance. Nor do we want the authors spamming the boards with endless pleas for assistance either, I'm sure. A simple group listing of those willing to help and a link to it should be enough, I'd think.

I definitely won't be asking you to proofread my teases.
