Truncated/L33t Sp3@k etc


Ok this is a personal pet peeve of mine. I only post it here as opposed to lounge because I see a lot of this here and it drives me bonkers, plus i dont read the lounge.

When people come on with a bug report or a complaint or whatever, do any of them proofread? Obviously not since they dont even take the time to spell out words completely. Seriously does it save you that much time using y r u not gonna stfu.

This becomes a problem when peopl cant even understand when your saying, I'd post examples but I dont want to start a flame war.

Having said that it kinda hurts your chances of public sentiment when you see posts like this.
Dont nerf TR MAX OMG teh are teh ubah!

SOmetimes in game I understand the need to truncate, roger becomes rgr logicly enough in a fire fight, but on a public posting board? I dont know if it's alziness or just tha tpeople wernt taught to type right.

Who knows? A combination of both? I'd say the reason is is because of their crazy alziness. Human nature is to be alzy. So if we didn't we'd be denying human nature.

Doppler, thanks for making this thread. I find it very amusing that you're saying what you're saying. You don't need to post any examples, you're right, because you are an example of exactly what you're complaining about. Re-read your posts.

I'm not trying to flame you, it honestly made me laugh that you're saying: "why cant you peopl use spellcheck your just too alzy?"

Ok....this is the line � and your over here >>>>>

No one actually speaks like that, and I think tis good to use "l33t" it abreviates long words making chatting faster

People use "words" like that for 2 reasons. 1 which makes sence: it saves time in games, 2 which doesnt make to much sence : because they think it looks cool.

"Peopl"? Usually not bad, but because of the nature of your post, I point and yell "HYPOCRITE!"
