You don't even do it properly either! its meant to save time by using less letters.
You just spell things like a cunt.

a brutal response
Has to be said though, it does make the person out to be a bit..
I mean, you'd never do business with a person or company that e-mailed/wrote to you and used txt tlk would you?? at least, i hope not!!

I just ignore it.
If anyone sends me a text or email written in this bollocks it gets deleted. It was obviously written by an idiot anyway.
There may have been a case for it a few years ago when mobile phones were more likely to have a character limit, or even sending a message to a pager, but there is absolutely no excuse for it.

EDIT: Thats an APOSTROPHE Benni! *Despairs!*

It needed an apostrophe! Like this ' i'm also happy to help
back on the subject of the "text type/speak" am I the only one who uses predictive text and therefore never has to type/speak like a complete mongaloid? All my text's are completely stripped of stupid words such as lyk as it's actually quicker to type like in predictive mode

It should be 'Also a lack of grammar.....'
....but dont let the fact his grammar is just as shit detract from his argument.
To be honest that a would give decent sentence construction but still be poor as there isn't a lack of grammar, rather there's poor grammar. Anyway I digress.
Chav mongs use txt type

On a phone when your characters are limited it is to be expected, hance "Text type" as in "send me a text"
But on a forum it's more or less pointless and pisses me right off.

I used to be so incredibly intolerant of things that didn't quite fit in with my way of thinking, text talk being one of them.
Over past few months I have chilled out alot and now it no longer phases me how people type...
APART FROM WHEN PEOPLE INSIST ON NOT USING PARAGRAPHS OR SPACES CORRECTLY!!

I very rarely do it when texting, apart from words like tomorrow, which I'd abbreviate to tomoz, simply because they're so fucking long and would end up on a line all on their own.

I knew what I wanted, I just didn't know the name for it. As for Foreign, I was talking about the full stop. As for Mongoloid man, I refuse to entertain you when you have a word under your name which doesn't exist. Again for you, it's mongoloid. The difference here is, I corrected people in a sarcastic, joking manner, Pork Chops was being nasty.
P.S For the record, Alan, It's mongoloid. No A. You was quick to help me, I can only return the favour.
Benni.
