For the love of God, Don't type like an idiot!

**Billy Golightly** · 07-17-2003, 07:33 PM

plz don tipe lik this k? I abosutely cannot stand that shorthand s-hit, its absoutely retarded. If your going to type something, take the extra 2 seconds and atleast type it in half assed english not some y r * so angry crap. From now on if you type a message like that to me, I will not answer it. I would encourage other members of the board to observe the same thing. Typing like that is not "Trendy" or "Cool". It makes you look like an idiot. Please refrain from typing in shorthand....or I'm going to be prematurely bald and unable to speak from pulling my hair out and screaming at the top of my lungs.

Here, here! I wholeheartedly agree! Take the time to use what you've learned in school! Speak and write with intelligence, and others will treat you with intelligence and respect.
If you can't do that, use a spell checker...

Typing in all capitol letters is as bad ( or rude ) also. A lot of times I just take enough time to hit delete.

I thought I was the only one who didn't understand! I went to college for 6 years and when I first saw it I thought I was retarded because I didn't get it. I type a whopping ten words a minute and I try to write legibly and spell things correctly. I agree!

Yes, lol, lmao, lmfao, ect is fine. What gets Billy, myself, and others is typing like this:

Wrong way: Yr 2 young 2 know what it wz like trailprotrailpro.
Right way: Your too young to know what it was like before.
I didn't type every word in short hand just enought to show what was meant.

Im with you guys on this one. I also do not respond to posts that are all in lower case with no punctuation. Way to difficult to desipher!

**Wickedfinger** · 07-18-2003, 11:13 AM

... Bill and I were talking about this the other day and we decided that this new form of internet language is to be from now on known as "Webonics".

I agree! How hard is it to hit a few extra keys! If you can type worth the crap it should not be a big deal!!
