This is a message for all those ppl who take slang too far. For instence, "Teh" is NOT a word. if your trying to replace "the" with "teh", then congradulations, you have writers lisp. Its bad enough ppl slur there words when talking, but when typing?!?!?!? my god! and the term "pwnd" has to be the dumbest word ive ever encountered. as if "owned" isnt bad enough! saying "you got creamed" or "you got clobbered" isnt rocket science! and last but not least, "G". that is my least favorite letter EVER!!! not only is it repeated OVER and OVER in rap songs, but now ppl are calling me "G". MY NAME DOESNT EVEN HAVE A G IN IT! This forum isnt school, but its still english, so speak the language correctly.

And read the Bungie rules, which state no stupid abbreviations are to be used. I really don't think anyone can complain about my spelling and use of grammar anyway...

Most people's spelling and grammar here is terrible anyway. I think there's about 20 on who can use the language correctly (excluding mods/employees).

I use correct language in messenger now anyway (most of the time), to preserve my perfect skills *cough*

in all seriousness since we're trying to force our ways on everyone else and all let's try and dumb down some of the intellectual talk around here to ever try and read a post by obbi or forumrunner and Jay's incessant third-person narrative man sometimes i wish i just couldn’t read or that my left click mouse button would break

I think correct spelling and grammar makes you look smarter and more mature, but that's just me.
