Deanski is a jewel on this forum, but he almost never posts as he is always correcting Marshi's threadconfused

He does not have many posts...but he did post here, please have a look :

Future subjunctive, only for experts, who dares to rewrite it? this is deanski's post

Only for experts, of course, where else would he post? wink

Anyway, please find more of his posts, he does not get a single point for his work on this site, he is doing all of us a gigantic favour! grin

These are his questions asked, the last one was asked in April. big surprise

These are his questions answered. the last one was the one I posted above.

And we are all so grateful, Deanski, I know you are going to kill me, but you never complain, never even want a special mention, never say a word of impatience.we are all happy to have you here, and we are all lucky to have met yousmile

Please do NOT vote for this thread...go find a post by Deanski and vote for HIM!!

Gracias amigosgrin

I hadn't looked at that thread, for obvious reasons, but I will have a look just to vote :) - MaryMcc, Oct 4, 2011
Well noticed H! Not voting ;) - patch, Oct 4, 2011
The trick, really, is to look at his profile, see how many points he has, and vote for him when he is well below 200, not to vote for him when they won't add to his total anyway. ;-) - Stadt, Oct 4, 2011
Agreed He is maxed on points all day so far - pacofinkler, Oct 4, 2011
thank you so much for pointing this out to us Heidi, I will look for his posts more from now on... - amykay, Oct 4, 2011

Deanski:

Ya sabes el aprecio que te tengo, eres uno de mis miembros favoritos de este foro. Si por mí fuera, te votaría cien mil veces, que no representarían ni la milésima parte de lo que tú vales.

Eres de lo mejor que hay por aquí.

Un abrazo.

Deanski is a true gift to SpanishDict. His corrections are always so helpful. When is he going to change his English and Spanish levels to fluent?!

Let's start a petition for Deanski to change his English and Spanish levels to fluent...at least advanced, Deanski, come on!

Immediately would be a good time. - MaryMcc, Oct 4, 2011
I honestly take the let people decide what level they are comfortable being attitude. But I did find great humor in Sandy noting the self-reported "intermediate" level of the questioner in the "how do I say I am from Spain" thread. ;-) - - Stadt, Oct 4, 2011
Apparently "intermediate" encompasses a wide range of abilities. I judge everyone by what they actually do, not what level they say they are. :-) - Stadt, Oct 4, 2011

Ok, I forgot to say, even though I'm sure that you already know this, check his rep points before you vote for him. If he is at 200 wait until he drops down to vote him up. Every point counts and if you are voting when he is at the max....he won't have the well-deserved increase!! smile Thanks again Dean for all you do.

Yes, if everyone else followed the scale set by Dean and Lorenzo, no one would ever advance. I told Dean a few days back that I honestly could not distinguish him from a native speaker in English (in which he is also "intermediate"). ;-) - Stadt, Oct 4, 2011

Wholeheartedly, I believe Deanski deserves be in charge of one of the daily threads. I'll even vote him for a moderator.
