Proper or Improper English on a Forum?

Started by Clovie2 pages

depends on how much I've drunk 😬

depends how much time you have... text language maybe all you can do in the time.

People DO speak like this, so don't lie.

So how do you type on a forum?

I type in the same way I talk and write...just without the dots...I don't know why I do the dotting thing...

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

Ellipsis is the correct answer. Would you like to stay at level 5 or spin the wheel of Mist?

Basically is use.

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

Oooh...

You owe Mist 4 dollars. But look on the bright side the next round is "Feel that supermodels ass!"

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.
