    An excellent notion.

    Perhaps we should get special coloured stars for this service to the board.

    I would suggest poiple. I'll leave it to mods / admin to move this one forward.
    Forum Grammarians, as it were.

    I would settle for an ickle badge proclaiming these chosen people as Forum Grammaticasters - but it doesn't hurt to aim high at the start of negotiations.


    I can't see any disadvantages to this scheme.

    You should call yourselves Forum Argument Grammarians. It even has a catchy acronym.

    Sadly you may be "black balled", if rumours that you are an ŕrschfécker prove to be true.

    Rest assured I will stick up for you. In fact I'll nail my flag to the figurative mast here and now.

    If manker does not get a Forum Grammaticaster's badge, then I don't want mine. That's my final word on the matter, there is no room for negotiation on this one.

    I was going to put your name forward, but have now decided to propose Fake Shemp for this prestigious position instead.

    He's alright

    So that's you, Shempy and I so far. Maybe SnnY too as the token foreigner - we'd better at least give the impression of not being elitist.
