Major Edit- Due to extreme hostility, I will make things simpler. This is a list of people who don't mind being corrected openly. Otherwise, I just won't correct anyone at all. Let's keep it civil, guys.
So the List of People who don't mind Correction in Public-

And please, people, I never said I was smart. I just want to get better at grammar, and practicing helps, so back off.

How come it is assumed that you want to be corrected? Why not make a list for people who want to be corrected, and by default have it so that people DON'T want to be corrected?
This is like **** like telemarketing and junk mail, where they assume you want to have to put up with it UNLESS you state specifically that you don't.

I assume that you are in Group 1, meaning that you don't want to be corrected. You might want to re-read my post.
Seriously, how 'bout if you get the hell over yourself and let this one go?
Thanks.
Don't keep us posted, and please don't let us know how this works out for ya.

It is. I wish it wouldn't, though. I don't think it's a bad idea, but if no one likes it, we can just let it go, I guess. Please sign up if you are interested, though.

what, are you going to keep a log in a spreadsheet or something now?
how about anyone who wants to have their grammar corrected can go to a grammar website and submit writing samples. Otherwise, let. it. go.

As Shag has said, I have bras older then you. :D No offense, but in this case I do not consider you an expert on the subject. I am an author, I am university educated, I used to be a free and a paid tutor, and I am working on a for-profit novel. I have to concentrate on proper grammer, spelling, and pay attention. Here, I do not. Here, I can let whatever crosses my mind vomit into a post and not care.
So, feel free to anyone who wants to correct my typos or grammer. Just be warned; you better be able to take as much you give.
This is a public service annoucement. You have been warned.
edit: Oh, and I know there are mistakes in the post. That's part of the fun :cool:
GROUP 1. >>> plz don't correct me or i'll call you misspelled names

I recomend by the reaction that you shelve this idea till at least after you have reached puberty.

And your use of the semicolon is questionable :p
I'd use a colon here.

I think it should be a public poll, where each option is one of the groups. Then it should be pinned, and people can quickly reference it when about to make a correction of someone's post.
Or maybe an another field to the member profile table in the database where people can specify whether to correct them or not, and it can appear over to the left under a member's avatar etc. (default it to "No Correction").
I recomend by the reaction that you shelve this idea till at least after you have reached puberty.
You know we have quite a few smartasses, but somehow only the youngest one of them all gets picked at .... i think he has some good ideas and he wasn't even being a smarty pants in this thread :) so i don't get why everyone's acting like that :rolleyes:

It's all Michael's fault for not providing us with a spellchecker. :p
