Looking for: Proofreaders

Datails: I am looking for proofreaders that would be able to make corrections for a new quest mod for Baldur's Gate 2. The mod includes 131 kb of text which needs proofreading. English is not my mother tongue, so there are probably grammar, spelling (and other) mistakes. I would like to finish this project as fast as it is possible. Contact via MSN is welcome.
Mod include some abstraction, storyline is probably interesting since it is set in brand new, strange world of Deep Gardens, what will make proofreading more interesting... probably :P

I'm sorry. I would have liked to help, but I have had two more babies since I was last involved in modding. That makes five children for me and nethrin, and, well, I just don't have the time anymore! :rolleyes:

131kb is... *checks for comparison* okay, about half the length of... well, never mind the title. :shifty:

I'm willing to give this a shot in about a week, if no one else claims it before then.

"Tyranny is a quiet thing at first, a prim and proper lady pursing her lips and shaking her head disapprovingly, asking, well what were you doing (wearing that dress, walking home at that hour, expressing those inappropriate thoughts) anyway? It's subtle and insidious, disguised as reasonable precautions which become more and more oppressive over time, until our lives are defined by the things we must avoid. She's easy enough to agree with, after all, she's only trying to help -- and yet she's one of the most dangerous influences we face, because if she prevails, it puts the raping, robbing, axe-wielding madmen of the world in complete control. Eventually they'll barely need to wield a thing, all they'll have to do is leer menacingly and we fall all over ourselves trying to placate them." -godlizard

I would be happy to help. Summer vacation starts Wednesday, and I have no school tomorrow (I swear, my school system makes the silliest schedules) so I'll have plenty of free time to do this.

I was talking with Sillara via PMs on CoM and suddenly she replied here :P I know that looks strange :D

Azkyroth & Leila -> expect a PM from me soon ;) We will talk about the details etc ;)

OK. Starting from now I need no more proofreaders. If something changes, I will say it. :cheers:
