I take that back. We're doing this thing again.
Is it possible to automatically get 100 on the Warn-o-meter for one offense, and, if so, what would the offense be?
No, I don't plan to try to see if it can be done either.
is that why you seem so grammar picky on the member+ topic?
Because you're supposed to look smart if you have some sort of status, and using "AOL" speak makes you look like a moron.because its actually a little bit faster not capitalizing words like "I".
Why the hell would that matter on a forum? This isn't AIM, discussions aren't in real time, and you'll probably get a reply in about an hour. If you're going to shorten things in the name of speed, then you probably don't think out your posts anyway.and as for things like 2 instead of to, B instead of be, and Y instead of why, its something called abbrieviating!!
No, it's called "making yourself look like an idiot." But hey, why care, you've just saved yourself time by not typing TWO LETTERS!most people would know what you meant anyways.
I suppose people would know what I meant if I misspelled everything on purpose too, but I'd make myself look stupid.SOMETIMES it can even be considered cool to use them!
No comment.example: there is a Pokemon music CD titled "2.B.A Master" because it looks more interesting than "to be a master".
Fo sho, dog. These forizzumz need 2.B. more hip, G.
