no shesulsa's message
I agree with Shesulsa - this is a bulletin board, not a phone, and I had to read your post several times before I knew what it said... and I teach learning disabled students who can't spell, and I can read everything they come up with. It makes you look bad, when everyone else is spelling (mostly) correctly, and you're not.
 
lol u no like the way i right

No, I do not like the way you write. It detracts from whatever message you may be trying to convey, because of the difficulty involved in deciphering it. You may think it makes you look cool, or up to date; I think it makes you look lazy and careless. If that's the opinion you want people to have of you, then by all means, please continue. If not, you might consider a different style.
 
Mabie im a little kid and im in a hurry. What if i like to use the least amount of words possible? I thank you for your criticism tho i will probally still use short hand. unless i get alot of people writing back, and its not that hard to read.

Actually, Adam, if you take a moment to read the forum rules (available at the *Rules* link on the blue menu bar at the top of every page), the general posting rules will tell you that we like to abide by Netiquette, which entails using complete language forms when typing. There are some links floating around here somewhere on them.

Let me know if you have any trouble finding them.

Thank you for passing the message on.

*MY THREAD*
 
ok ok i will stop using short hand. I don't own this thread i was just having some fun and i am still going to say i own it. Playing tag on this thread is fun and im trying to get it to 7,000 posts.
 
Well playing tag is fun but I am sitting on this thread right now and owning it completely for the Dark Siders! (oh and it's Lisa's fault that we own it)
 
I only saw where people wanted you to spell out what you were saying! From someone reading your posts that is kind of what is expected on MartialTalk!
 
It is not that hard to read short hand. if you want me to stop you private message me not say over the internet and slander my rep.

Certainly there is nothing wrong with sending you a private message but people on the board also have the choice to let you know in a thread that you need to do something or not. In this case it looks like several peolple want you to not use your shorthand and I would agree with them that it is better to spell out what you are saying. Plus it will only help you in the future.

Okay Adam look on this forum it is appropriate for you to type out your messages not using shorthand. That is if you want people to take what you say seriously. Shorthand generally indicates that someone was just to lazy to want to convey their message. That is how the majority of people feel on the best message boards. While Techno is being blunt he is being honest and has been on this board a long, long time and is well respected for his opinions. Give us quality and people will like an enjoy your posts!
