A Fully fledged "I hate it when people use terrible english on forums" thread

I suppose we'd better have a proper discussion about it...

At least to stop you guys from ranting in a thread and completely derailing EVERYTHING.

I absolutely HATE people who use abbreviations for words or phrases, you know what I mean, people who post and just say "lol" or "ur so gay" or whatever.

Infact, sheerly by principle if I see someone post a serious post, that consists of "ur" as a replacement for "you're/your" or "r" as a replacement for "are". Then I put them on ignore.

Feel free to discuss this further.

lol ye it is vry annoying espeshily when dey spel all da wrds rong 2, bt i gree dat u r vry angry ppl, k?

I don't usually mind it when people use in proper English on forums. But I ALWAYS correct my sister's bad grammar. She just never learns... Sometimes she does it on purpose just to annoy me.

Yeah, I get your point, but still, the internet vulgarisation of English, is not as bad as the real life vulgarisation. Modern Vernacular is nearly indistinguishable from, say the 19 hundreds.

This thread is complete if I manage to convince VampireCrono to post "orly". But that requires effort, yo.

yes, we all could be talking in ebonics or some other butcherd English language

fo' rizzle, shawty!

it annoys me too
but as i cannot spell normally.....but at least i try ^__^

Don't you fools see?

If you type the incorrect spellings of words, and I mean lots of them, one after the other, it makes you seem like an incoherent retard.

edit: Angry? How so?

I try to do my best in using proper English/grammar, but if I mess up, give me a break! I'm only 12.

Well, all the hate threads. Just because some people spell badly and improperly, doesn't mean they're awful, even if it is a bit annoying. Where is the lurv?

(SPOILER)And yes, I know how to spell the word love.

I learned long ago that patience isn't a virtue, no, but a cold mistress, who must be yeilded to on a daily basis.

After years of suffering, I lost myself in the moment and ran her through, severing the link between her spine and brain.

Thus killing her. After that I soon became a Neo critic.
