For what it's worth, I had a quick look through your comment history and your English seems just fine to me as a native speaker (at least for informal communication).

People who don't have English as their first language often seem to underestimate how good their English actually is. I wonder if it's because their reference point is formal English rather than the much more forgiving English we use in casual day-to-day conversation.
