Nope, definitely not alone, I hate having to try and decipher what someone is saying in text speak, wouldn't mind but it doesn't take that much longer to spell the words out! |

I don't think lol and stuff like that are that bad. They're more like expressions to get your point across. Which i think is okay. But full sentences and paragraphs of text speak is a no go.

I only use 3 text speak/words/abbreviations in messages cos they're easier to type quickly and I'm lazy...
u-you,
ur-your/you're,
n-and
I absolutely detest lol, don't understand why people don't use question marks at the end of a question, hate when people don't use their/there/they're in the right context and also when people say would/could/should of instead of have...it's not of, it's HAVE! Does that make me a hypocrite?!?! Or am I just fussy about grammar and punctuation? |

You're certainly not fussy about using punctuation correctly. |

Now this is a good thread.
I am not a fan of text speak, admittedly I personally use two or three, namely - lol FFS when frustrated and ATM
Besides that it's a no-go and I don't even use ATM when messaging here or in emails et al.
Another thing that seriously grips me, is grammar and punctuation!
I'm a self confessed grammar Nazi and I just don't get why people can't use correct grammar, punctuation and context!!
Biggest ones for me have to be;
Then / than
Your / you're
Nite / night
ize in any form when it should be ise eg
Standardise / standardize (grrr US 'English')
The list goes on haha.
I like decent conversation too and am fortunate to have found very like-minded people here, so far.
;-) |

Glad it isn't just me then. Sometimes wrong spelling annoys me. And it's obvious it's not a typo. Don't want to come across as arrogant but surely certain words you'd know how to spell and use in certain contexts?

No. It's not about someone being stupid or not. I can say all this and even i'd make some mistakes surely. You may be more intelligent and smarter than me - but sometimes it's that moment

Nope, I too hate text speak. I don't care if people try to justify it by saying it's a progression of the language because to me it's lazy. Bad grammar and spelling I can forgive but I could happily punch a text speaker in the knob.... |

Exactly....
Haters already on an open thread, light hearted fun - fun can be had here besides sex can't it?
Or am I totally disillusioned by having a 'lounge' in a forum where anything and everything can be discussed?
New to FAB I may be, new to forums et al I'm not and there will always be haters and moaners who don't like whichever topic is being discussed for their own reasons.
Don't like the thread?
Do get involved or comment, it really is that simple....... Isn't it??????
(Hint lol)

"I only use 3 text speak/words/abbreviations in messages cos they're easier to type quickly and I'm lazy...
u-you,
ur-your/you're,
n-and
I absolutely detest lol, don't understand why people don't use question marks at the end of a question, hate when people don't use their/there/they're in the right context and also when people say would/could/should of instead of have...it's not of, it's HAVE! Does that make me a hypocrite?!?! Or am I just fussy about grammar and punctuation?
Glad it isn't just me then. Sometimes wrong spelling annoys me. And it's obvious it's not a typo. Don't want to come across as arrogant but surely certain words you'd know how to spell and use in certain contexts.
maybe there naturally stupid like me ?
Maybe their naturally stupid yes, or maybe it's wear there from? It might of had an impact on there education! Who nos?
Who's cares. People ain't on here to find out about peoples "educations" they on here for fun. Stop Moaning. I ain't scared to tell you people. Simple "
Seriously? Come on, it was a joke as many people will have understood...nobody but yourself has moaned on this thread! The op asked if text speak bothered others as much as it does her...if it does then comment and give your opinion, if it doesn't then say so or don't comment...it's pretty simple really, why make something out of nothing? As for closing the thread...ha ha ha ha! That's all! |

"This wants closing down. It's pointless admin need to close it off ??????
Could you point out where I was abusive or bullied you please?
did i miss you m8 ?
not you, the person I quoted. I've apparently bullied and abused them by pointing out that it's an open forum!
Where did she say that?"
Via a medium other than the forum, quite abusively too, she also didn't give me the opportunity to reply... |

I really should stop doing it. Every time I try to think I forget to breathe and if I'm also walking then have a paramedic on standby! |

It is inconsiderate of someone to ammunicate in a style likely to be unintelligible to others. If they lack such empathy and consideration of your needs, guess how they would be for a shag. Now most phones sold do not have keypad buttons, it is amazing that people do this. Perhaps slow to adapt? |

"I'm not good at spelling or grammar never mind text talk
Google is my spell check "
I think it'd take me longer to use text speak/talk than it does to use full words! Got a cousin who's 14 and when she texts me I'm usually just like 'whhaaaatttt the fuck, I'm old!' Haha! Don't understand half of it! |

"I don't think lol and stuff like that are that bad. They're more like expressions to get your point across. Which i think is okay. But full sentences and paragraphs of text speak is a no go.

Well, that's a shame. But utterly untrue. I often receive well-composed missives of substantial consideration. |
