Anonymous person, I'd like to talk to you. You have been making huge numbers of posts about shipping. I am starting to feel like I am a permanent worker in your shipping office. Unfortunately, I am not a paid worker in your office. Please tell me, are you posting here every word of English that is sent out of your office? That's what it seems like to me. Do you think that is reasonable? I really don't mean to offend you, but I think your office needs to hire someone who can speak and write good English.

My interest on this Forum is to help people to improve their English, and my satisfaction is to see that their English improves, even just slightly. In my professional opinion, what you are doing on this Forum is not going to improve your English, and I certainly don't see it improving.

You need to concentrate on the fundamentals of English grammar. The best way to do that is to find a good English class. If you want to use the Forum to improve, I suggest you forget about writing about shipping and instead focus on writing simple sentences correctly many times, using each of the tenses correctly, etc. If you do this and we offer you corrections, you need to start replying to some of our posts to ask about any corrections that you don't understand, to ask if there are other ways to say things, etc. Look at how other people use the Forum successfully.

You should also always sign in as a registered user. After all, you are perhaps the main user of the Forum currently. We can help you more effectively if we always know that you are the person we are talking to, and not just one of the many anonymous persons.

Instead of signing on to the Forum tomorrow morning and finding a lot more posts about shipping, I would very much like to hear your opinion about all this.

Best wishes, Clive
