    Why do people start threads about 'txt spk' when they are against the Charter?

    I get why people feel the urge to use text speak. I understand that with the character limitations in place in SMS form and the likes of twitter it is useful to use text speak to get a point across. However here we have no similar character restrictions and it is not a language that most posters speak or wish to speak. Many view it as annoying and difficult to understand. Please refrain from using it on this forum.

    Taken from the Charter, please read it before posting again.:pac:
