Don't really see the issue here It ain't hurtin anyone you txt write type how you want to . It's not really hurtin people is it it is just a picky winge to me to have a moan bit silly really . Half of people out there don't speak properly or pronounce every word correctly in a well spoken English manor withouth accents so I don't c any dif if I'm honest some people use it some don't I really don't understand the need to bring it up and moan everyone should b free to do as they please as I said it isn't really hurting anyone it may bug people a little but that's about it ? Bit pathetic really . Sorry of this also offends but Im just sharing that I think this is a little silly and looks like a reason to have a winge?

Proper English, spelling and grammar are so much easier to read.
The OP is entitled to her opinion. I certainly agree with her. I find that a badly written and poorly spelt post, whether in text speak or not, has to be read more than once. |

Understand that completely just clearly stating for others who also are aloud opinions it can't be helped if people can't spell or have easy txt settings on a phone they are using is all . Like I said not looking for an arguement over speech as its pathetic just sharing my opinion like everyone else not looking to be jumped on for it

I agree, I get texts from people and can't make out what they are talking about, I have to work it out!
People wouldn't use text speak when writing a letter or applying for a job so why use it on a forum? |

By the way there are loads of people who come on here when using a phone and don't use morse code. People wouldn't come on and put all their posts in Italian or German either

Another reason to not use text speak is when you need to use the search facility on here, what do you search for or what does the search not pick up?
