Lmao, would it really kill people to type out their words and use correct spelling and grammar? Using incorrect grammar and spelling makes you look immature and uneducated. Here are some of the lame excuses for words that I've seen: Ur Kk - Ok isn't short enough? Ppl Pl8 Bod/Pl8 Legs Wat Wut Wot Luv Yew Yu Kthanxbai - ........ Ik Ikr Wht Wuz Horrible grammar: That sick I saving up for How you do that? What I do? I going to I could go on and on.. ~ B A M F Pie

Yea I kinda agree at some things here, although i have to confess that I sometimes use things as "urs" and "wat" and even "cya". For the grammar part, I do a lot of mistakes, english is my second language

how is it different? "lol" and "u" were created for the same purpose, to shorten what we type and make it faster.

I have to say, that I'm fine with the shortening of words, people that purposly have awful grammar just annoy me. I know, I'm a grammar freak. It's just that half the time I don't know what people want because they say something like this: "Pl8 Dude". And that guy wanted to buy my rune plate...

Pie, you just spammed in your own topic. Way to go. Don't do it again.
By the way, for the acronyms you guys said weren't that bad, Pie put "ikr" which is an acronym for, "I know right."
If that one acronym bothers you, who is to say others don't like: LMAO, LOL, IDK, LMFAO, ROFL, etc.

That's another thing..I also don't like it when people type in all caps. I don't consider the acronyms for laughing bad at all. It's better than spamming haha to show how funny you think something is.
