Chat speak

[illiey12]

Yesterday I saw some of my teacher's notes and he was writing in CHAT SPEAK!!

This is exactly what he wrote: ''2moro let alic3 do P.3 wif da kidz @ 1:30pm.

The proper message was meant to be: Tomorrow let Alice do P.E with the kids at 1:30pm.

(P.S. If you're wondering who Alice is, its a student teacher.)

Well, there's no point in writing in leet, who would? It takes more time than writing properly...

Yeah, I think that some people try to write like that just to be ''cool''. The kids at my school try to do that to ''fit in with the big kids''. (Well thats the explanation one of them told me).

It can get to the point where its sickening!!

I think heavy chatspeak is very annoying (like using numbers instead of letters for substitutes of the real letters). Like what what tama w/ pants said; a bit of quick abbreviations wouldn't really hurt much.

I guess it's okay. I'm not much of a 'txt tlk' person.

 

[jazzyfloss]

I use chat speak on MSN if i'm in a rush or something but not usually.

Chat speak is annoying.

(How many times have I used the word annoying???)

 

[Tamaland_Kitty_Kat]

'u' and 'btw' and stuff like that, but '0mfg' and 'lyk3' and stuff like that are annoying!

 

[x.Ryancloud]

I hate chatspeak.

Abbreviations are okay though.

 

[Acid~Rain]

Honestly, I don't really Mind it.

Sure it can get annoying at times, And I don't really use it [i use Abbreviations though sometimes]

Hey, As Long As I can Understand it, I have no problem with it.

The only time I think txt tlk is acceptible is when your actually texting. I use; u=you, r=are, brb=Be right back, lol=laugh out loud,ily=i love you, and a few others. I do not go: "hi ppl luk at my new pics! ur all so gr8 ily al. im going 2 c u ppl l8r. ttyl. ily! bb!" I would say: Hey u guys, check out my new pics on myspace! Your all such coolio friends, ily all. i'll see u peeps later!" On tamatalk it annoys the crap out of me when you txttlk. ICANNOTSTANDIT.

I don't find it too annoying myself, but proper English grammar is always best.

I don't excessive use of it.

As long as I can read it I'm fine.

I do it when I'm texting but thats it.

What really pisses me off is when people get to using numbers in their words.

It doesn't make it look cool, it just makes you look stupid.

As for smileys....

I'm guilty xD

I think I have an excessive use of them.

 

[~sweetxsugarxhaunting~]

The end XD (Of my rant)

EDIT:Sorry about overdoing it ^^;;;

 

[Locky458]

Being on the internet where poor language is used quite often, I have no problem with it at all.

I'm just use to it.

 

[Leafpool]

This guy at school emailed me saying (This is just a sentence from it):

"Ha1 k4r1.

h0w r u 2da1?"

I wanted to slap him x_x

 

[TamagotchiGirl2007]

Lol, brb, ty, and wb I don't mind.
Everything else can go die.

I agree. It annoys me so much.

I use stuff like "brb" "lol" "rofl" "ppl" and sometimes "u" and "2" instead of "you" and "too/to" but that's it. I can't understand it at ALL if people type using numbers instead of letters, like "i h8 u li3k z0mg" it gives me a head ache trying to read it!!!!! I hate it!!

 

[Jinx3295]

chat speak angers me, unless it's like 'lol, lmao, rofl, omg, brb' that's it really.

i cannot stand it when people say things like that.. in a conversation, in person.

i mean, seriously. have some proper grammar and english.

 

[Cinderpelt]

I don't mind a lot of it... like brb, r, u, ttyl, lol, lmao, pwn, wtf, ftw, etc...

But you can use like 50,000 "chat speaks" in one post/message.

Abuse it/overuse it, and it gets annoying fast. When replying to a topic, I won't even bother wasting my time trying to make out what it is that is trying to be brought across if it is loaded with "chat speak."

Overuse of smilies.... well, the are so darn cute.

But we shouldn't abuse the poor smilies either. ;_;

 

[illiey12]

My favourite abbreviation would be ''lol'', but the rest of them Ive sort of stopped using. Well, I only use them in MSN when Im in ait of a rush.
