I was reading the Babble forum because I have no life and I noticed that there are a lot of people who can't type the words "you" or "are" and a bunch of others like those. Are those other two letters that hard to push on your keyboards? Or do you think that is the "cool" way to type? A bunch of friggin' AOL users from the looks of it. Probably use iMacs too, figures.

Here on Byond, we refer to them as "DBZ fans".

Was there a purpose to your post that makes it worthy of the space it's using on the BYOND forums?

I'm sure there wasn't, but then, most babble posts are that way.

Well, most babble posts perform some function other than blatant ego-fluffing, too. ;) I can't say I was ever fond of poorly masked attempts to crow one's superiority.

Speaking of which, did I mention the girl I have a crush on called me "sweet"?. Oh, wait, I did. ;-)

Ok, lets not start flaming bad spellers, AOL users, and Mac users...wait one minute...was your name supposed to be spelled Saitin, or am I reading it wrong? Is it supposed to be pronounced Saitin, Shaytin, Shaatan, what? Oh anyways for the answer to this:

Most people here are uneducated, poor mannered, 10-15 year olds. Noticed I'm not reffering to ALL of you just Most. So in other words, they cant type well and look at their keyboard while typing. They dont realize their mistakes until they read them. Also Im geussing it's the lattest "Trend" for computer "n00bs".

Hmph. Back in my day, when a girl called you "sweet," it was the kiss of death. Well, good luck anyway!

Whut's wrong with people not typing the whole word?
It's not like you become gay or something after you see it.
It's just a habit that people have.

It's wrong when they actually consciously do it on purpose... what exactly is "whut" supposed to mean? And, it's wrong when you don't type it fully anyway, since that is not and never will be the way to spell "you".

No, but most people who don't type it become annoyed when someone does, because they are demonstrating that they have no respect for the language they are trying to use.

It's just a habit that people have.

Yes, and habits can be broken. That's our point.
