It has come to my attention that several users prefer to talk in "txt" language. What i mean by this is, instead of writing a clear and concise message that everyone can understand they use shortcuts such as "k" and "coz".

I would also ask that everyone checks their posts before they press submit for spelling/grammatical errors. It makes life easier for the people reading the forum and will also help us in terms of seo.

(Yes, we all make spelling mistakes! I have probably made quite a few throughout this forum but lets at least try and cut them down)

Regards.

I can see your point. Since I'm not a native English speaker I tend to write as in the books I had to study (from all the Shakespeare I've eaten these years I should write quite retro ) ... I can see people try to get rid of long words and write carelessly. It's a pity, because we're debating here some serious subjects.

I agree with this and hope the quality of our posts would rise dramatically.

If you are that concerned about it, why don't you install the spell checker?

Because that doesn't solve anything, I shouldn't have to. It really isn't that hard to double check your posts before you click send.

I spell well (heh, that kinda rhymes) and have good grammar as well. I'm just stupid sometimes and don't make sense. But it will always be legible, well-spelled nonsense!
