When it come down to grammar I must say this:
Grammar is killing the language itself. People started talking first and invented grammar in order to analize their language later.
Still it's here and it should be used. I'm not using it, because I feel it's more importaint to get the message accros. People should put down their own thoughts as they apeared - meaning - every time you made a pause in your thinking there should be a punctuation. This will lead to grammatically incorect sentances, but will improve on comunication (in general).
But as there's only a handful of people thinking this way I have absolutely nothing against somebody correcting my mistakes - unless that would change the meaning.
Often there's a really slight difference, if you put a coma at a different place. It may be wrong (maybe some other punctuation symbol should be used) but that's where the pause is supposed to be - otherwise it's not my thought. I'm open to suggestions however. If anyone want's to correct any mistake (no matter who made it) give suggestions. Reviews were changed in the past - there's no reason they shouldn't in the future. I think the best example is the Monkey Island review (it changed altogether). There's still a translation of the first review on the slovene site - and just a quick comaprison will let you see the difference (even if you don't speak Slovene).
Be a man, Sebatianos. Don't make excuses for your poor writing abilities.
