Hello friends,

What should be done to the poor quality of English that is flooded by users just for earning points and climbing up in the member's category levels.

Large number of postings are full of grammatical mistakes, spelling mistakes and are typed without using caps in the beginning of sentences and putting spaces between sentences.

Users are not even using capitals for typing the single letter word 'I'... They type 'i'... it is a matter of serious concern that should be addressed.

I agree. Glaring mistakes reflect badly on the site. I request all users to kindly be careful. I also suggest that the site should introduce an online course for English language. I also agree that all can not be very proficient in English but very glaring mistakes are intolerable.

Hello gulshan kumar ajmani,

This is a site where the major volume of contents consists of English. As such, the users are expected to post contents of reasonably good / average quality.

Ye, we should not post copied content...

Majority of the articles submitted exhibit grammatical errors, typos and spelling mistakes, lack of proper capitalization and punctuation, bad formatting as well as content which is copied either in part or full. While most of the copied content is rejected some of it remains undetected and gets approved. Other poor quality articles receive a poor rating from the editors as a result lesser cash credits and points are awarded. Sometimes no cash credit is allowed at all. Other than that, I don't think we are doing much of anything else.

We cannot do anything about it.The individuals concerned have to take steps to improve their English.If we point out specific cases, they may be offended and we will invite their anger.

How can we depend on the individuals who post poor quality English... because such people are either school children or those who do not have average knowledge of English.

I think effective editing would help in reducing poor quality contents. :( :( :( :(

Hi Harish Jhana- I agree. However I am not sure what can be done to improve quality. There are so many grammatical and spelling mistakes. This is really disgusting. all users should take care. I have given some suggestions in the suggestion box. Please consider and give your views.
