I'm going mad off the power.
Text talk is now officially banned from the forum. Any post a member of staff comes across where u tlk like dis will be deleted automatically. No modification or warning, just a straight out delete.
I've noticed a strong correlation between text talk with complete and utter tossers, so maybe if we get rid of text talk, we get rid of the knobbers.
For those of you who don't consider yourself to be a knobber but use text talk, start practising talking propoh. If you use FireFox then all spelling mistakes will be underlined in red to help you out. I'm not going to get nazi on spelling, but intentional shortenings of words won't be accepted on the forum anymore.
You have been warned...

Text talk is a sign of an impoverished mind and a barren soul.

I never do it. Even on texts! I type normally to make sure my English doesn't slack. Sounds pathetic, I know, but its the one decent thing I was actually good at in school!

Well I always try to talk in proper English.
Never though text talk was too much of a problem here.

I think I don't do that, but I'll pay more attention from now on... I always try to use correct English, as much as I can...

Haha, this is awesome. It does sound a little dictatorish, like you're trying to build an Internet Master Race... Der Webwaffe or something.
Radical, I definitely agree.

Text talk is pretty annoying considering I often have to decipher most of it so I can't say I feel bad seeing less on here.
