well I got my right hand cut off  and now I'm trying to type with just my left and I do use a lot of short stuff. Like the #2 for to too two. so if u can give me a little break I would thank u! I just want 2 change my ugly catera parts 2 great looking opel parts thanks


Give the guy a break...  :exclamation :exclamation

 >:(

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 .. :)


Agree but feel the ""gay"" should be changed too ""homosexual"".

adjective, -er, -est, noun, adverb
–adjective 1. having or showing a merry, lively mood: gay spirits; gay music.  
2. bright or showy: gay colors; gay ornaments.  
3. given to or abounding in social or other pleasures: a gay social season.  
4. licentious; dissipated; wanton: The baron is a gay old rogue with an eye for the ladies.  
5. homosexual.  
6. of, indicating, or supporting homosexual interests or issues: a gay organization.  
–noun
7. a homosexual person, esp. a male.
–adverb
8. in a gay manner.

 I would rather the baron be known as a lively old rogue with an eye for the ladies .

TBH I have no gripe with text speak --- really no worse that AFAIK or IIRC and SWMBO etc.  But, as said before -- rules is rules

My problem with it is when describing bolts or other things

m8 (I'm too gay and stupid to spell mate) (I'm too gay and stupid to spell mate) bolt

Probably other things too...

 :-/

But is that M8C or M8F  coz we really need proper descriptions

I agree with the rules,but what i object to quite strongly is the manner in which it is done,to put some of the comments like the 'To gay to spell' rubbish is not needed or neccesary and is childish

I agree there is no need for text speak,but why cant it be civilised...

e.g m 8 (The correct word is mate)????????
What's wrong with that? gets the point across without being insulting
But having said that if there is no text speak then why are the likes of SWMBO...AFAIK,etc etc....half of which i personally dont know what they are meant to be......

TB (or the other Admins)im not having a go mate,its just my opinion...
I think its wrong offence and childish,and by that i mean the manner in which it is done......
If the rules of the forum are there to be stuck to,which im happy to do so,then can someone answer me why there is a non-Omega thread in 'Vauxhall Omega Gallery'????
