"Learning English" and being a Grammar Nazi are 2 different things.

I would never have called him out on this were it not for essentially claiming that he is a professional writer and has the degree to prove it. When you flat out lie like this, it makes the rest of us look bad. Furthermore, he wants 1 BTC per 1000 words (due to his extensive knowledge of the English language), although he, again, is lying to earn money.

You can tell based on the press releases posted on BitcoinPRBuzz alone that he is far less than professional. This leads me to believe that he is attempting to use trickery and false claims to get paid more by people who otherwise don't know better. I have morals and I can't see myself sitting by while things like this happen. They destroy the reputation for each and every one of us, so when people do things like this it has a direct effect on me as well.

I'm not saying it is a problem to point out his errors, I am saying that there is a difference between "Learning English" and being a Grammar Nazi.

I don't see where this comes from, though. You're the only one to bring up either of those terms. Prior to this, there was no mention of either. So I have no idea what you're trying to get at, considering you haven't validated your statement. I could just as easily say, "an apple is not a car," but what does that mean? How is that relevant to the discussion?
