What I deplore is poster who resort to geeky, childish "textspeak" and, in consequence, produce something which looks to me like gibberish. My reaction is to think, "Well, if you don't care about what you are saying, nore do I, so goodbye!" |
I totally agree with this. I hate "text speak" (
I 8 txt spk!!! :P ). It's absolute gobbledigook to me and has left me completely baffled on other forums in the past. Having a military background, I can live with acronyms and even like some that can crop up in day-to-day talk(
Fubar, Tarfu, Snafu etc.), but "text speak" totally beats me!!! (And I'm not of the "older end of the age spectrum" !)
