Okay here's how it works.
Submit a post with bad grammer that can posibly be fixed by me. Don't go for stupid spelling errors that would be corrected by Word; I want real gramatical errors.
eg.
The man that comes home late misses dinner.
should be:
The man who comes home late misses his dinner.
Stuff like that.
After I attempt to fix the post, it's open game for anyone to laugh at me for the things I missed--spelling excluded.
You don't have to participate, but it would really help me out.  |

Word has reached Barnacus of a large coordinated attack on an estate owned by Zalconian officials and representatives of the local Sarr matrons that occurred two weeks ago. The estate was discovered to be a large underground slavery camp, with over one hundred slaves working on the compound in different areas. Evidence was also uncovered that the owner had been performing inhumane alchemical experiments on the slaves for years. Zalconian soldiers overcame the resistance and were able to gather enough evidence of the owner's crimes, before completely destroying the estate. The owner was identified as a white tiger sarr named Nisus, who was not present at the time of the attack. There has been no word on the location of Nisus, who was supposedly traveling north to purchase more slaves when the attack occurred. Information is being circulated to all Imperial officials and soldiers regarding Nisus, with a standing warrant for his arrest.
From the game I do on the weekends, this entry in the last newsletter took a fair amount of copy editing.  |

Although I'm sure I missed some stuff, I had a lot of fun with this one. Thanks. [= |

Well, in that case here is another one. For the number of intelligent people who play NERO, I am always amazed at their poor writing. I have to fix these articles every other week for the newsletter. Here you go:
Well, after a long trip and interesting mission to the undead city of Old Hadran the adventurers left in town on Sunday morning were asked to help a representative from small town. The problem the town was having had to deal with their well being blocked off. So we traveled to the town and went down the well in search of looking what could be stopping the well. On our way to the town we ran into some problems with spiders and Dust elements but they didn't cause too much harm to the group of adventurers who were very hurt for skills after the Old Hadran mission. So we entered the town and talked with the town sage or someone of importance about fixing the problem. We headed down the well in search, and ran into some pillars of slime that cause tried to poison the group but did not succeed. We then ran into some goblins, which we passed quickly which lead us to something kind of fun but hurt us in the end. We got to go slide down a waterfall, which was fun at the time but caused some decent damage to the group. Then we entered a small room, which there were 3 goblins that appeared to have arcane armor some how. We disposed of the goblins and then found the blockade not allowing the water to get to the town. We knocked down the blockade and then began to race the water as we head up the ladder to the surface. In the end, we beat the water and got the water to work in the well. The town no longer is thirsty and is healthy once again, which made all the adventurers glad they could help. Also, on the way to the town the adventurers freed a fly scavenger from a web full of spiders, which was interesting. So to sum it up, the adventurers fought off some minor creatures while helping a fly scavenger and allowing a town to regain water and no longer be thirsty. |

I would possibly have inserted a comma after the first word of that sentence.

I didn't say he broke that jar. Read the sentence over and over, but emphasise a different word each time.
