I try to be helpful, but when I have to read a post three times to figure out the meaning because you're too lazy to use a full stop or a paragraph, then why should I waste my time?

I agree totally - its bad enough that some people on here appear to want boards 'servants' to answer questions that even the most rudimentary search on boards or a visit to the isp's website would answer - but when a person can't bothered to write in plain English......

Any chance of starting a campaign to have posts written in textese or without capitals and punctuation automatically deleted?:rolleyes:

I know some of the forums have it in their rules that there's to be no textspeak or missing punctuation.

I think it went something like this: "There's a full keyboard with all the characters in front of you, so you've no excuse not to use them"

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I get fed up with trying to read this stuff where not even the slightest attempt has been made to make it readable or comprehensible.

But it's as you say, they want information without having to work for it.

I see you found the full stop key, the apostrophe and the exclamation mark. Added to the previous us of the question mark, you've just increased your punctuation by 300%


Well done. :rolleyes:

Shame about the capitals though
