Message: [QUOTE="Nils Petter Vaskinn, post: 1689610"] But this is not a chat room, speed of typing doesn't matter. Clarity does. I don't think Joona intended to imply that they are, he wondered if there was any explanation for this common mistake in otherwise correct english. (then he unfortunately proceeded to make a poor joke) As another poster explained atleast one indian language is written the way it sounds so writing "u" instead og "you" is an easy mistake when you're used to such a language. That's a resonable explanation to me, I know I make mistakes in my english and that atleast some of them are because of my native tounge. But if a person (of any nationality) has it pointed out to him that he should type full words (instead of chat style abbreviations) in order to make his text more readable (especially to those that aren't as good at english), and he then continues to knowingly mistype words then that particular person is stupid (in my opinion). I wasn't ridiculing people that makes unintentional spelling mistakes, I was making fun of people that make intentional spelling mistakes in order to look cool. [/QUOTE]
