"At the Grammar Conference in London, England, war has been declared on the AGR, the Anti-Grammar Republic by a party called the 'Grammar Alliance', otherwise known as the GAAF (Grammar Alliance Armed Forces)! Troops on either side have been assembled and are currently being mobilized! Two major forts have been established; one in Paris, France--Fort Adjective(GAAF)--and another in Munich, Germany--Fort TXT(AGR). Supplies are being manufactured and shipped out to the armies! Who knows how long this war will last?

Enlist today to assist in the war effort (hopefully on the GAAF)! This "WWG" began because of a dispute over proper grammar after the conference in England! War rages between the AGR and GAAF and the troops are dwindling. The GAAF is outnumbered, but not outgunned. We need more troops! To enlist, simply post on this thread with your name , rank (starting with Pvt. unless otherwise told by me or other GAAF superiors), and level of experience.

For example:
Pvt. YWS_Person, two years in Advanced English.

To rank up, simply document and post any grammar errors you've corrected in reviews (or other places, but most preferably reviews). Like The Knights of the Green Room, but with grammar. Your superiors will then judge your grammatical assistance and determine whether or not you will receive your "tags."

Tags are what you'll use to level up in this place:

On works in the Green Room:
Thorough grammatical assault - Nine tags
Moderate grammatical assault - Seven tags
Little grammatical assault - Five tags


Thorough grammatical assault - Five tags
Moderate grammatical assault - Three tags
Little grammatical assault - One tag

YOUR NEXT RANK IS PVT. E-2 - YOU REQUIRE FIVE TAGS.

List under revision:

Spoiler
Private E-1 -> Private E-2 (5 tags)
Private E-2 -> Private First Class (10 tags)
Private First Class -> Specialist (20 tags)
Specialist -> Corporal (25 tags)
Corporal -> Sergeant (35 tags)
Sergeant -> Staff Sergeant (40 tags)
Staff Sergeant -> Staff Sergeant First Class (45 tags)
Staff Sergeant First Class -> Master Sergeant (50 tags)
Master Sergeant -> First Sergeant (55 tags)
First Sergeant -> Sergeant Major (60 tags)
Sergeant Major -> Command Sergeant Major (65 tags)
Command Sergeant Major -> Sergeant Major of the Army (70 tags)
Sergeant Major of the Army -> Second Lieutenant (85 tags)
Second Lieutenant -> First Lieutenant (90 tags)
First Lieutenant -> Captain (95 tags)


FEEL FREE TO POST YOUR ASSAULTS AS JOURNAL ENTRIES, SOLDIER ACCOUNTS, ETC.

MAKE HASTE, ADVENTURER! I REQUIRE YOUR KNOWLEDGE!

Post your reviews with grammatical fixes with the documentation form here! Your superiors will, then, gauge how much you helped the author with their grammar and will give you tags based on that! REMEMBER, DO NOT ONLY POST GRAMMATICAL MISTAKES. YOU WANT TO HELP THE AUTHOR, SO POST AN ACTUAL REVIEW ON TOP OF THE ASSAULT.


You may post your reviews prior to joining the ranks, but you MUST limit five.

Is it not human nature to want what we cannot have, and yet manage to overlook the blessings piled upon us?

Where do I post the grammar mistakes I catch? Just in the lounge?

Here is fine. And it's reviews with grammatical assaults! The AGR have been relentlessly plaguing (with a lot of badly drawn propaganda) works with grammatical issues! The more mistakes you fix, the more likely that you're going to get more tags!

Ulala8, Pvt., five years of collective knowledge

Ulala was born in Ohio, around "red necks". She moved to Michigan in 2004 and has since been coached by her Grandmother in the ways of the Grammar Police. The "red neck" speech is a frequent trigger for her and will often cause her to spend more of her conversations correcting grammar than listening. Though she has made a few mistakes in her time, she will diligently work for the purification of grammar in daily use and she will fiercely stand by the GAAF.

General Dd called the new arrival into his office at Fort Adjective to have a conference. He held a file folder in his hands and was perusing through documents and pictures depicting assaults. Pvt. Ulala stepped in.

"Sit down," said the General. "Do you know why you're here?" The private looked at Dd sternly and shook his head "no."

"No, sir. Did I do something wrong?"

"Quite the opposite. You've shown great progress in the fight against the AGR. I award you with this." The General held out an emblem; an emblem with the Private E-2 insignia. He proudly saluted the soldier.
