Maybe some kind of subforum or some kind of tag in the thread name/single post should help mark the "corrected topics"?
In practice, it would look like this: - you want to improve your english, so you start a thread/participate in thread in that forum ( = language improvement forum) - when some member of "grammar police" (weird name:D) replies, he also (in italics) tells you/corrects your mistakes you've made in your post. What do you think? (Just out of interest - how many mistakes have I made in my post?  )

Sorry, I somehow mislooked the idea of sig usage. That is the best idea by far IMO:)

I like this idea ^^
Even though I've spent most of my childhood online, I'm sure there is someone out there who can correct me when I screw up the grammar ^^ I like the subforum idea the most, where people could ask for phrasings, synonyms, grammar and corrections. That way we won't get too many grammar police posts in topics

QUOTE (audiopaal @ Dec 27 2008, 02:26 PM) I'll write it again, as I believe this should get it's own subforum. If not many threads will get flooded with grammar correction. I believe it's better to have a Language Improvement Forum, somewhere in GMC I agree, I think a place of it's own would be best. In the long run I would not appreciate to read grammar corrections in all different threads. That would take focus of the forum and I must say the idea to improve ones language is a great one, just not in a guitar/music forum, I forsee that grammar corrections everywhere could make lots of people lose interest having to filter that out. Me included. EDIT: Self appointed grammar experts exist in plenty of other forums. Wouldn't it be easier to double post, both at GMC and any other random forum where there exist one?
