Pieguin Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 This is my first day here, and I've skimmed through the Player Killing forum; after my first ten minutes of viewing topics that were answered quite 'interestingly,' I've come to wonder... Exactly who here still writes with attempted 'perfect' grammar?-- No offense to those who don't, but I've had to squint [ :shock: ] and ponder about some of the unique alterations of the English language... It was hard [read] for me to understand what quite a bit of the topic posters were saying, without the urge to leap off a five-story-high building.

____ Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Keep reading OT and the other forums within 'General' and you'll notice this is perhaps the only category where the majority still put effort into their posts :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invidious Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Believe it or not, many people on these forums actually do use acceptable grammar. While the group of people I speak of is a minority the fact is, is that it does exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necromagus Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Yup, plenty of times I feel like repeatedly smacking my head into a wall to get the stupid out, but it seems to happen more often in the sections that talk about RS thna here...

cadburys_egg Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hah, you are one of the good newbies. Not those txt spk annoyances :|. Once you check any forum below runescape related ones, the IQ of the posters seems to treble along with their grammatical skills :). >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebbeberg Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I always type the best i can, small typos in some big words. But that's okey. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsa Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I try too as best I can. I find that if I visit the PK boards my I.Q drops, on average, by 5 to 10 points. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eeeeediot Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Stay away from those evil PK boards :P Its not too bad here though.

SAGE Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Now if Tip.it just quietly deletes the PKing board we won't have to hear about who teleports where or prays to what god in the form of "t3le pl0x prayer nub i own k david hasslehoff" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy500fan Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Now if Tip.it just quietly deletes the PKing board we won't have to hear about who teleports where or prays to what god in the form of "t3le pl0x prayer nub i own k david hasslehoff" or you could just not go to the pk'ing board? i only go into OT and M&M anymore, so there isnt too big of a problem with that. some people may not like the way i type (no capitalization, usually no apostraphes, and probably poor spelling), but i think its ok.

____ Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 I can read it. But when people put next to no effort into writing something, in full, on a message board I take them a lot less seriously. Although if it was live-chat I'd have a different opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotnoodles Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Yeah, I agree it is sometimes incredibly difficult to read some peoples' posts due to spelling/grammar errors, but I wouldn't go as far as to say that every time I do attempt to read one I associate it with the urge of jumping off a building.

How2PK Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 wuts wrong with typin liek this? u shuld prolly get sum glasses or somthin cuz most ppl can talk liek dis ez. I don't really see what's wrong with typing like that. Admitted, it makes you sound less 'intelligent' for what it has got to do with intelligence. But honestly, TS, do you need to read that three times before you can understand what he says? Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!
