Derpy Hooves Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I sincerely hate text-speak. I prefer full words, it shows that you actually KNOW your language, and it doesn't make you loo like an ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braux Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I usually use Txtspk sometimes when texting, just because spelling out full words while using one of those number/word pads is a pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarita Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I use some chatspeak, but not much. I have a phone with a qwerty keyboard, so I have no excuse. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluxy Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 If it has a keyboard, no. But if I have to press a number seven times just for a letter I want, yea, I shorten it a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Fox13 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I like to use full words, even if it takes a little longer to type the message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"User" Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 On forums I like to use complete words with the best spelling and grammar, but on msn and other IM programs I typically misspell quite a bit - mainly because I can type over 80 words a minute. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRedFox8 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I always put up full words, except for the common acronyms such as FTW, IDK, AFK, that sort of thing. I don't substitute "U" for "you" and that sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
