I would love to be in the grammar squad.
I'm constantly criticizing bad grammar when I read articles on the net, so being able to help by fixing such articles would be great!
Also, my English is very proficient so I hope I can help out.

Sorry if I'm a little late to the party... I'm an English major who has an unhealthy obsession with editing and not enough to do. If you think you can use me, I'd be glad to help.

It's funny, really - I talked to Kosta years ago about fixing up some of the reviews and posts... I'm excited to get back on the horse! Just let me know where to go and what to do.

Me too. I am new here and am not free very much. But I am willing to give it a try. It is a good chance for me to improve MY OWN ENGLISH.

Please let me join in. PLEAAAAAAAAAASE

You seem to have plenty of volunteers now, but will be happy to assist if required. Recently retired and looking for pastimes! Many years writing and gaming experience. Great to see this renewed interest in DOS. (Who needs Windows?) Look forward to hearing from you.

I didn't mention this there, but I HATE apostrophe abuse. Passionately.
