If you want more of a conversation-style help, this mailing list is a much better option to go towards. > And, worse, the feel it is appropriate to actually > go into your posts and edit your content. The > called it correcting your grammar. This is offensive. What you find offensive isn't set in stone for others. There's also a lot of value in ensuring everything is constructed in a similar way. This enables people to not have to learn each person's style and grammar choices all over whenever they are looking for an answer to a problem of theirs. > Is there another forum out there like Stack exchange without these > negative issues?
