well, if it bothers you, then u should not associate with the forums. i dont write much in complete sentences because i wanna type quicker and i know that ppl will understand what i am trying to say. and yeah, i am lazy. o well, enjoy!

Or maybe YOU should stop associating yourself with the forums. I find it incredibly annoying when I can't understand what people are saying. In general, the rules of the board is that your typing shouldn't equal what I just left in my bathroom. NoStylin was eventually banned from these boards for his typing, and we have rules in the FAQ for a reason.
Just because you think that something is ok doesn't mean it is.
We have other rules against being lazy (i.e. not reading through the forums, asking for information already on the site). Why should this be any different? Your laziness can very well contribute to the general annoyance of other people. Why should we all have to deal with one person when that one person can easily fix their typing?

So. Please. Stop. Dissing. Peoples. Spelling. |
Periods are after every word for emphasis. Notice "Most Ironic Post" is not a complete sentence and was not meant to be.
He's dissing peoples' spelling because the person who spells and writes bad is complaining about people who spell and write bad. Now, I usually don't have a problem with people who spell/write that bad, but if you're going to complain about it, you better make sure you can live up to the same standards. EndOfTomo most certainly did not spell and write correctly, so he made a fool out of himself. |
Just the correction bitch here Mr. Dogg; it should be "badly."

"Badly" is just as grammatically correct as "poorly". "Poorly" would be more semantically correct, however.

Periods should be placed within the quotation marks.
We do have standards to uphold. |

This thread is a perfect example of why its stupid to be overpicky about grammar on the internet. If its legible and doesnt look like the author put extra effort to make it unreadable just let it be.

There's a difference between intelligent posting and Slashdot.
