This issue is raised in 'Suggestions' also...

Its pathetic!

This above is downright rude insulting and childish.....get a grip on this please

All we ask is everyone follows approximately 12 posting rules.  Its not hard, its not difficult, and it sure as hell isn't rocket science.

What part of [size=14]Use English, no text speak which is notoriously difficult to read[/size] is so effing difficult???

If people can't talk like a grown up..........

Have you read the first posting in this thread ?

yes and ive just written this with my left hand....so without wanting too sound unkind whats the bloody difference in one hand or two and left and right.

If I was forced to use the "wrong hand" permanently I  am sure it would be very frustrating,and wouldnt want to be part of a community which wasnt prepared to give a little bit of leeway without constantly telling me that I was stupid and gay.Or that "you is too hard(shouldnt that read difficult?) for me to spell.

I often spend a couple of hours at the time on the phone and end up typing with one finger on one hand rather than 2 fingers with 2 hands.

So my vote is with TB, Ban Yxy speak.

In fact when I 1st used messenger I used txt speak and couldnt spell to save my life.  Allthough I still cant spell everthing properly it halped me big style, so for that reason alone I hate txr spk now on the net.

Probably other things too...

I think I will decline your very kind invitation -- spell checker will accept "too" as it is correctly spelt -- but used in the wrong place!  Checker would also accept prawn, but that doesn't make it correct usage

Some text speak isn't too bad. But if I was to type in Dublineese the word filter would be completely confused and the server would probably fry

My google spell checker checks spelling and the way offers too alter a word if not used in the correct grammar.

The above could well be mispelt as checker is offline...

Until that was posted no-one knew .. so how could the guy be given a break  ?? and as already said .. it is possible to type and obey the site rules, the use of text speak only saved him 8 keystrokes in 100.

Methinks some folks are getting on elevated Equus ferus caballus over this ...

The rules are there, admin have repeatedly asked that they be obeyed, now they are making a point ...

Good on them I say ..
