Anyway, I'm not targetting anyone specific, just adding my 2 cents.
Some people use bad grammar, "chat speak", bad spelling..etc. But to me that is, as long as I can understand the person, it is fine. They might not have english as the primary language or being exposed to a world of broken english since the day they started learning english and think that it is better than standard english.
Well, back to the topic, sometime it might be a good thing to summon your GF slower as they can be a meat shield for you.
