but are not all who post in this place using english as first language
hence suceptable to jp /mank critique?
if not then is not your non critiqueness a form of condescending charity
which hence makes us 2nd hand u.s. english typers of lesser importance to your scepticism?

You'll only see me correcting people who I think are better at writing English than I am. It's for a larf and can be taken as a compliment.

Sometimes, maybe, I'll get frustrated with someone and tell them to sort it out because their prose is almost indecipherable but mainly it will be for the former reason.

I won't correct people whose native tongue isn't English - even if they wanted me to, because, well, I'd be here all fecking day for one thing but mainly it's because if I was posting on a French forum and some Gallic twat was correcting my prose, I'd be pissed off because I'd be making more of an effort to talk to him that he is to talk to me.

Am I allowed to correct manker? he's foreign, and he types like a blind chimp with no fingers.
