What about the other sentences?
MM, do you have something against me? All I´m asking is help from you guys but you keep replying with messages that have absolutely nothing to do with grammar. Instead it seems like you´re marginalizing the questions I ask and judging me as if you´re trying to discipline me. It´s very uncomfortable and very unappreciated so if you don´t have anything ni

You always use Present Perfect with since and for (British English)

I have nothing against you except your sloppiness when posting. If you are not going to use decent English in your own writing here, then time is wasted by anyone correcting the sentences you post. There is no requirement for a respondent to correct all (or even any) of what you submit, but I will continue to correct what I think are the most critical parts of your submissions.
