Typing
 
I have to ask: Why are some of you some damn lazy when it comes to typing? I can name 3-4 perfectly good members here whose posts I often skip simply due to their childish style of typing. Little or no punctuation, blantant spelling errors, no capital letters, idiotic internet abreviations, "Lol" for example. Annoys me to no end! I can post a list of who in particular Im talking about, but Im sure you know who you are.

i hope you arent talking about me. i say lol a lot, but it's just because of AIM instinct i guess. i'm a decent speller though.

You aren't the worst offender, but yes I'm talking about you. Would it hurt you to use capitals once in awhile? Outside of this thread you dont use alot of punctuation, either...

Posher778 02-21-2006 02:31 PM

well, we don't have to use punctuation, especially caps. i type with my keyboard on my knees, with my knees propped up, and its hard to hit shift and a letter. sounds lazy but thats actually true. it's not that big of a deal though.

The_Return 02-21-2006 02:33 PM

No, not a big deal. No offence, but it just makes you look dumb.

Before Sam gets the idea of bumping a thread from my early days, I must admit that I once typed this same way. I slowly began to realize that it looked terrible, and started putting English class to good use.

Whether doing it on purpose or not, you still saying it!!!

If I want people to take my nonsense seriously, I usually assume that proper grammar is necessary.

But sometimes I'll muddle it up just for the fuck of it... or if I'm drunk.
