For some reason, people feel the need to always use txt tlk on the internet..
you would think that folks would use this forum as a way to work on their spelling and grammar, as well as sentence structure..

I guess they'd rather practice their txt tlk...

I really don't understand why, considering that most people have full qwerty keyboards at their computer. There is no T9, or tapping to worry about.. just type the next letter in the word you are spelling out.

DO i use abbreviations? Of course, at times I do, however, if you read most of my answers to almost any questions, there is an entire paragraph or three of words...

I understand lol, and rofl... ok, I'm used to seeing it, even though i hate it...

I just don't answer - just to lazy to try to wander through the text talk, and I know they are very young or would use words.

There's a time and place for everything. I don't mind and do use some abbreviated versions e.g. LOL, OMG, LMAO, etc. When the entire communication consists of a simplified code, I ignore the question and move on to a question with more substance.
