Your spelling and grammar make your sentences hard to read. Let me offer some English tips to help you out, if you don't mind.

After every punctuation there is a space. So a space goes after a comma or period, or a close parenthesis.

Ellipses (the "...") are always 3 dots, not 2 or 5. The first letter of a sentence is always capitalized.

Hope that helps. Your ideas will get a lot more readership if they're easy to read!

On your question, I think some issues have no absolute right or wrong. That's the entire purpose of reasonable debate, which is the point of saidit. So I wouldn't worry about what the group thinks too much.

Yes it's obvious English is not your second language, it's no problem. I'm just trying to help so that more people will read your ideas.

It's more about spacing and stuff than grammar really, no need to look anything up, just put spaces after your periods and commas. That's all. :)

Ah that makes sense. I am just the other way around with the languages I study, I am good at reading them but terrible at speaking and listening. So I admire your skill

Cool,your NFL fan?i am ,or maybe you like collega footbal,i know its very populair in Texas,i also amazed some times about the beauty nature in Texas i see on TV,and als in more USA places like Washington-prob. because i had a certain vision of it-like Oil drilling dessert or some-..psps you know XYY stands for Xiao Yao You,i like Taoism and its a saying from Taoist (Daoist) Zhuang Zi-also known as the only Daoist Master follower from Lao Tse. I also wanted to try learn Chinese ones but after i seen how diffucult it was i had no energie for that..🤔..WOW i also was interested in Spanish, for some reason i like the sound of it,when i see The Dogwispherer on TV sometimes speak spanish e.g.its sounds so cool, or Rap Music like Cypress Hill ,or the GTA-IV song from Hector el Father"LET DO EVIL THING"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bz6WBRdkI4

How do you think other people who doesn't have English as a first or second language learn? By looking up words...

i really dont care if you have to put 2or3 dots/space etc.,
ps this time i really havent checkt 1 word of this message with google translate,so prob.lots of spelling/grammar mistakes,but

If you won't make an effort to become understandable, how can you expect that others will try to understand you?

"right" and "wrong" are completely subjective to absolutely everyone
