What the title says.

If you find any mistakes in my posts, and you feel the urge to tell me that they have a mistake, then post it here.

I can really benefit from corrections, but I hate the out-of-topicness of being corrected during a discussion; specially because it makes the people arguing with me look smarter... or makes me look more stupid. The result is the same.

So, in order to find a solution, I created this topic.
Any correction posted in here will be very appreciated. All corrections done outside this topic will receive curses.

Beforehand, thank you buddies.

On the other hand, that's a mistake.

Ziku is always spelt with a Z, not an R

Wrong tense, its feel.

Nice idea Nac, how nice of you to centralise. You won't mind users multi-posting in this topic will you?

A repeated word I noticed you mix up would be feel and fell ( as your post atop shows)

"If you find any mistakes on my posts..."

The bolded should be in.

"Any correction posted in here..."

The bolded should be plural.

Well that should be all that's wrong with the first post. Everyone else took care of the rest.

TerminX does not have an E between the N and X.

That will be all.

As for sentence fluency, don't add "to" in awkward places, like you did in the topic title.

"Help Nac to improve his English."

Stupider is not a word either, it'd be "more stupid".

And "out-off-topicness" could be fixed easily to either "off-topicness" or "out-of-topicness" (which is a weird way to say it)

Alright, I know a way to help; Nac, type a medium-long paragraph discussing ANYTHING, make sure you use a lot of phrases or words you're not sure about, then we can analyze your mistakes much faster.
