    Default How do YOU like to type?

    I've noticed that some people always type words but spell them differently, its so god damn annoying. For example: They would type Yoo or Yew instead of You, Rawked instead of Rocked, Rawk instead of Rock, Lyke instead of Like, Lyked instead of Liked, Hawt instead of Hot, ETC. I see no point in it what-so-ever! Yet they call it 'slang' I still fail to see how you can use 'slang' by typing a word thats exactally the same length as the normal one anyway and in some cases the 'slang' word as they like to call it is even longer than the original. Whats the point in it? Really. You could type prefectly correct without people moaning and it would save you a couple of milliseconds due to the correct word being shorter than the 'slang' one. What are your views on this? Do you type like it, if so - why? I understand many of you will say Thats how they wan't to type so leave them alone but if you say that, I'm just going to ignore you. I'm not here for an argument, i'm here for an oppinion.

    I do type like that sometimes, I say hawt and rawk. But i have no idea why, sometimes i'll say the proper word for it. I guess i do it out of habit from when i used slang and stuff.

    I type proeprly on forums and most of the time on Habbo. But on MSN I use a bit of slang but don't use things like LAWL!1¬!!!!

    That word annoys me so much..

    Personally, I'd let go 2-3 net words go by. I'll even tolerate no capitalization. But it annoys me when people type like they're lobotomy patients gone wrong. Is it really that difficult to learn how to type properly? I'm just curious now. It's not that difficult, and you'll be doing both yourself a favor (not sounding like an idiot) and the Internet community a favor (faster intake of information).

    My opinions match Fyta's, although I dislike people who use capital letters in the wrong places constantly.

    I touch type and it's unusual for me to make smelling mpstakes, see what I did there, I'm so cool.

    I hate people are try cloning noobs and speak like 'omgs that is so not nuw."

    I type differently at ALL times. I always use "u" or "you" on MSN, and yeah. I never use "r" and "are" though.
