I use proper English. Complete with correct capitalization, spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
Anything else drives me insane.

I use proper english, well with the normal net shortcuts like, u, ur, etc. Never used m8 though, Hey I just did. Well look at that.

I use proper english - though I don't always stick to perfect grammar and use the odd abreviation.
I don't proof read, so there's probably more mistakes than I know

Those who are conscious of the fact they are using improper English should take a second and think about their stupidity.

Improper english on or off a forum is annoying...I hate text speak... disgust

I do that a lot too when I'm typing, but since my thoughts tend to trail off like that, it makes sense.

Using proper English isn't a chore to me, which seems to be a misconception around here. If you type properly, you're putting "effort" in.
Odd.
