grammar nazis vs the punctuation proletariat
I don't believe text talk makes someone stupid. ._. I believe it means they're in a chatroom, and formal text isn't needed... I don't use text talk. Sometimes I say stuff like "dunno" instead of "don't know." My best friend uses text talk sometimes, but doesn't mean she's dumb. She actually is a great poet and writer, and her grammar is perfect when she wants it to be.
You see, some admins just use grammar as a excuse to bully people. That's all. .-. But hey, what can be done?
You know, debating only emphasizes my point and there is a major difference between "Text Talk" and abbreviation. Personally, I believe items such as "LOL" and "OMG" fall under abbreviation while "ay qurl lemii holluh achu" falls under "Text Talk". Your embarrassing yourself. Luckily, most of you Grammar "criminals" ( I don't understand why you all try to relate vocabulary with law figures) are just adolescents going through a phase. Eventually, you will mature (hopefully), look back, and realize how embarrassing you used to be. Remember, kids, you can't erase anything on the internet.

i already have seen people like that, correct meh every f time that i fail like this: 'WORD HERE' THANKS!, this ppl as you call em 'spell nazis or something just annoy me to hell and i end up leaving the chatroom -.-
What does that 'f' in between every and time stand for? You're really cussing on a featured blog?
since i didnt write the whole word, it doesnt necessary means that i cussed... and its NOT bypassing
You'll still get in trouble.
There's a difference between correcting and insulting. Some admins can't seem to differentiate the two. Your parents shouldn't call you an idiot for a typo or using text talk for a casual chat in a chat room.
Besides, there are plenty of people out there who use abbreviated text and are still well educated, more-so than some of the admins who pretend to be.
Admins are sort of your parents. You may not have known this but when they correct you they help you.
Say you wanna go to college. You won't get there if you can't type well... Bad grammer will become a bad habit. So march foward into Grammerland! -applause-

I would talk back to mine, yeah. I agree with this, my iPod spaced cock roach, but I corrected it to cockroach and they were like "IT'S COCKROACH, NO SPACE -_-"
This person, could actually be a college recruiter trying to know more about you. If they were to see you slacking in the vocabulary department, they would assume that your work would be assume and make a final judgment saying they do not desire your assets.
