you should be able to correct it; I mean, bad grammar never does and good anyway. It matters if you change the story, though, but nobody is going to do that. It's on the internet, so itis subject to some change. If the grammar is simply terrible, then it shouldn't be posted on here anyway.

I don't think you'd need the writer's consent to fix grammar. It's already been posted somewhere new, so that's something that should actually matter to a conservative author.
