Adamg All right, I'll start asking around.

The Fifth Horseman Just write a list of the people who need access to it.

Adamg Well, as soon as someone creates the forum, we will use it.

Correction - I didn't see the most recent replies before posting. There is already a forum for the "Grammar Squad"? It would certainly be useful.

The Fifth Horseman It's there, yes.

Me to.
If it was not deleted in the conversion period, then we already have a hidden "Grammar Squad" Forum.
Maybe the_first_horseman knows something about that.

I assure you it will be difficult to contact all reviewers, many of them are disappeared from this forum since years.

P.S. - I've noticed that Abandonia Reloaded has very well written reviews. Let's see if we can do even better. :amused:

Juanca Ok here is my idea for anyone who wants to help.

1.You choose an updater and go through all his reviews one by one.
2.You pm him and show him your work (send him one by one gradually the reviews edited to make it less painful to read), if he agrees on your work you let him upload your review edited.
3.Then pm Romano for the payment.:amused:

I have chosen Sebatianos as he is the big fish with reviews, and I have already started a messaging with him. I am also working on the latest news (there are some mistakes that have already been submitted)

I think there is no need of selecting the squad, as i believe that the ones who want to do this work are persons who are sure they know how to write in English and anyway you will need the approval of the reviewer.

Please inform other members of the Grammar squad team if you already chose an updater to avoid doing the work two times (i think the best way is through this thread.

Ok...to work...let's see how many are we?:amused:

The Fifth Horseman It would be great to see the Grammar Squad return, yes.
