Liss:
I, for one, am extremely happy that this site isn't crowded with people that are demanding and can't spell. Example:

I NEED HELP U HLP ME NOW OR U SUXXORZ!

grrr.

ZephyrZodiac:
People like that, even if they are only thirteen years old, make me angry too!  In fact, being only thirteen should make them polite to adults, only these days it doesn't!  I would say they're probably the worst-mannered generataion since we came down from the trees!   (Of course, there are exceptions to every rule....)

veilchen:
I find spelling like that extremely rude. My command of the english language is not all too bad, but there are people out there who are not that good at it yet. I have difficulties reading things written in that kind of manner; imagine how much harder it is for people not yet well versed in english.

We are trying to accomodate english-speakers-only, but if we run up against people who don't believe in grammar, punctuation, and spelling, we are up the proverbial creek without a paddle.

I have a 12-year old niece, and she only has been learning english for one year. My sister has to forbid her to access international forums, because a) she wouldn't understand, b) she would most likely misunderstand, and c) the danger of learning it wrong is far too great.
Pity, really.

ZephyrZodiac:
It is a pity, and the greatest pity is that it's only the English speaking world which seems to have such disrespect for their own language!

breyerii:
You should see Italian boards, then...

Especially the Sims 2 official site - barely moderated, full of teenagers flaming each other (coarsely) in our brand of Internettese.
