Speling - verry importent!

[hugsta]

ROTFLMFAO Moosey @ bumdart and cracker.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I wonder how kids will spell when they arrive into the real world of "work" and realise they can't use there stupid crappy talk when emailing a prospective client or a customer.

I can see it now...."ur carz redy pik id up d sarvo eh bro" or " waz up, got sum stuf 4 ya cum get it." :shock: :lol:

yeah i am with you moose. Not so much the spelling if it is just typos, because everyone makes those, i do every second post most likely. Its when you get all this dribble because people are too lazy to type words out.

i just ignore posts where english isn't used the way it is ment to be used. So all those people that want to use slang, your posts are a waste of time!!

Spot on Hugsta, it's all very well saying it doesn't matter and I don't care but out in the real world these simple things like reading and writing can be quite important.

Look, I'm the first to admit I don't post much of value in many threads, but at least you can read my tripe .......and.....I'll also stoop as low as doing the txt abbreviation thing when I'm using my mobile, but to use it on a forum is the ultimate in lazy!

Hell, I actually worked for a dyslexic guy who ran a signwriting business, whilst it was a struggle for everyone concerned, at least he had an excuse! :twisted:

I agree with you in the main, but threads like this one won't change much unfortunately, other than to air individuals frustration on what they have been reading or trying to read! LOL!

We also do have to remember that APS is made up of alot of different age groups, including school kids, and at the end of th day we are not there English Teachers, were just a group of people that all share a mutual love or interest in reptiles.

Just my 2 cents!

so is it bad to have u instead of you i often use either i didnt realise it was disturbing to ppl, oh can i say ppl instead of people, r accronims ok? such as PMSROFL or should i say the all the words in full?
I often use the shorter versions it just happens other times i write the full words, depends on what mode my brain is in.
