who here actually types with spelling and punctuation? as you all know i really dont lol i could care less either Smile it was brought to my attention that "you seem uneducated" when you do. does anyone really care when on a forum?

its not a formal address? should it matter??

whats your views on the subject?
I do. I'm not a fan personally of Web 2.0 slang lolol! I prefer basic text, but for the text itself to be interesting and fun (I'm sure you're smiling with joy while reading this).

I'm also a member of staff now, and you'll notice that a lot of the staff type "normally", just because it's good type. Also it's good practice for my job as News Reporter.

I am a fan of basic smilies though. Not anything newbieish like this: Psycho Happy

but something that makes people understand you are happy with them example: Smile

or for something funny: ^^ or ^_^

Sly looks: ¬_¬

I hope that doesn't make me seem boring..... Big Grin
you boring? heck no!

pshh you remember even when i was staff i still just typed but then agian you all knew my typing style and no one really cared Wink

either way, im not on mozilla which has built in spell check, im still using IE! yes im behind the times but i like it so STFU d4rk and joker! <3

but still, i also just type fast and out of the way- i dont want to sit there and spend 50 hours on typing something for a FORUM! im not getting graded on it (i finished all 4 years of college thank you very much) so why bother correcting myself? Wink

IE FTW! <-- stoneage!

I don't think it gauges intelligence, I just type like this out of force of habit, plus it's easier on the eyes.
I try to type with proper grammar, but the deal is, I don't really know proper grammar, I just put commas where they look good, even if they aren't supposed to be there. Big Grin
Like in the sentence you just typed? Big Grin
you can never overuse a coma lmao

True, you actually have to concentrate on what people are typing with Web 2.0 grammar.

ETA- WHOOPS! lmao it ******** (no word there just the *'s) my 'shift" lmfao i accidently wrote teh S word hahaha

i was about to question the censorship hahaha

Yes, I generally do type with correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling. While I do not necessarily think it is the ideal way to gage intelligence, it is often done, like it or not. I do it because it is more proper. I also do not put my elbows on the table.
Grinding Jills gears seems to be a hobby of mine.
