팬팝 How do 당신 feel about seeing responses, picks, etc. that use one letter words (U, R, 4) 또는 use "text language" (dis, wat, ur)?

I'm sorry if this is a repeat! I did a search of multiple key words and didn't find anything!

I think it's okay (or I at least tolerate it) in comments, but if it's a pick, quiz, article, or anything that requires the attention and participation for other people, it's a courtesy to be proper.

It doesn't really matter. If I don't understand it I just ask them to clarify the question. Someone usually obliges.

I can't help but link it with their intelligence. /: I mean they may be the smartest people ever, but if they type really bad, like chrie for example, I just feel like they are as intelligent as a piece of bread.

germany123 picked It annoys me.:
I think its rude when it is on a submission: if you cant take the time to properly phrase your question/concern then why should i take the time to appreciate it/rate it/comment!?

if it's in a comment i will ignore the comment because i cant be bothered to decipher it. and as immunicaramolivine said, it makes me doubt the users intelligence. fact of the matter is that the sane users here type normally and have something interesting to say but i have never seen anyone make a valid point in text speak EVER!

Actually I use just "u" and "ur" and I think it shouldn't annoy anyone much. I'm annoyed, however, by incorrect spelling of other words.

Same here. And it looks worse when it's in a pick.

When I'm in a real rush, I frequently make shortcuts like "ur" for 'your' and "thnx" for 'thanks'. But I don't go overboard as to talk lyk dis and anoy ppl (Though I'm pretty guilty with with typing like that on my early fanpop days). ^^

It is annoying because sometimes it's hard to tell what they're trying to say, not everyone is use to text messaging, but people are allowed to do what they want so...

TV_freak4life picked Don't give a crap.:
I really don't give a damn how some people type, or how they write on this site! If they wanna type 2 instead of two, or too, that's fine by me. We all know how 2 could also mean both. Also, 4 sounds the same like for, at least in my book, and I'm from Bosnia! So, if people in Bosnia can understand it, then why are all the native English speakers on this site getting so annoyed about something so small like this?!? I don't get it! Where does it say in Fanpop rule book that users have to use longhand all the time??? I never found such rule on this site!! You should be more upset about the people who can't even spell a simple word in English, such as word Christian! Some people don't even know how to spell it right! How hard could that be? Forget the shorthand! It's the misspelling on this site, in polls and other stuff you should be worried about! I think you're all barking on a wrong tree here! So, some people use shorthand, like when they type an SMS message, but most people on this planet have phones now, so they all know what 2 and 4 stand for, and since you guys all have your cellphones back home, or you're even on Fanpop mobile site right now, you should all know that, too by now. Or know that 2, or whatever!!! I mean, really, people! You wanna talk shorthand now? On a site with people from all over the world who don't even know how to spell a word of English!! You're right, they should take some English classes, but so should you. This is the 21st century, we're all online now, and we send tons of SMS messages to a lot of people, and most people use shorthand all the time. Get over it! It's the users who can't spell a simple English words such as Christian, or word people, in some polls on this site, who should take the English classes!! You should all calm down! Let the people use 2 and 4, if they like. This is a social media site, not some school, college, or university! Nobody cares how you type! Don't tell me you never used shorthand on this site, or that you never made a simple typo!! Come on, people! This is a place for all of us to have fun, not a place for anyone to judge others based on the way they type! When in hurry, or when there's not enough space left, even you would use shorthand 2, so give me a break!

I don't really care anymore. Tbh the people who call it out and mock people for it kinda annoy me at this point. I personally don't like using it, but it's whatever. People can do what they want. I just don't really like it when I struggle to read what they're saying, but that doesn't happen often.

It comes across as a bit lazy in my opinion. And if it's done excessively it can make whatever's written difficult to understand.

Well, personally i don't really care if someone types in text that's there right. I'm more annoyed at myself that I can't read it. I don't even text. *shrugs*
