Hatchet=hatch i think that it's ok to use some abbreviations. but what i really hate is the thing that some people find it very hard to use full sentences and not write their opinions so that everyone can read them. is it really that hard to use ''.'', '','', ''!'' or ''?''? oh wait leeters use exlamation mark and question marks alot. i wonder, is that AOL chat room such a leet place then. i mean, every american i know says that only script-kiddies and/or wannabehackers use those rooms to fill their needs... and the text is really terrible there i hear.
