Sorry, I was at Ivan's band practice...Thats why I didn't reply for a while.
I was not talking about lol, rofl, roflmao, or wtf.
I was however talking about cuz, u, r, wut, tot, and things such as that. Things that are not complete phrases, or actions, but things that are actual words, but ae just not being used because it takes a few less seconds to type two or so less letters.
The language that g03s l!3k th!s, using symbols or numbers instead of letters, is known as l33t, or 1337. This is often used to imitate n00bs in a mocking way.
Basicly, I agree with what decs said, it saves you less time than it takes us extra to read it.
To kratos: Then find some other time to type it, you don't have to do it right that second.
To whoever said the comment about somone talking like that in the games. That is acceptable to me, I can understand if you are being attacked by a monster and need to get a message off fast, but on a forum where you have plenty of time, there is no need for it. Personally I still use proper grammar and punctuation in games where I have a keyboard. I type at about 50 Words per minute, so typing speed is not a problem at all for me.
