Hello Teachers:

I've Run Across This Type Of Typing Recently Here On AMHD. I Thought It Was Just Some People Who Didn't Know How To Type. However, I See This Kind Of Typing All The Time.

And It's Really Hard To Do. Why Would Anybody Do This? Is This Being Taught Somewhere?

I can c your point.

People just type any way they want, spell any way it sounds, and never worry about the rest. Maybe grammar and punctuation is not taught any longer in school. If it is - who is listening?

Well heck hun I am lucky somedays to spell good at all but yes I know what you mean I have to decipher a lot :D

Laughs. We get good at decoding. Maybe we could trade in our skills and work for the government. Hehehehe

Because. Every. Word. Should. Start. With. A. Capital. Letter. And. End. With. A. Full. Stop. Don't. They. Teach. You. Anything. At. School. Anymore.

Actually I think they may use software that does it.

Don't, I hate it!

I even hate it when people send me SMS' like it! If you can't fit the whole story in one SMS, send me 2, don't force me to decrypt what you're trying to say!

Txt is great innit?

No, no it's not!

Oh My God I Just Found It Out, If You Type In All Caps, Then The Forum Software Rethingies Your Text Like This << I Typed This In All Caps.

Aah, to stop people shouting!

I realised today I use it at work for webpage titles and subject headers too!

Ooh so you can shout in ratings! How to use this information... :rolleyes:

That is so funny because a while back I posted a question about my W2 and the IRS, and with only those words and normal capitalization at the beginning of sentences. It wouldn't let me post until I got rid of some of the capitals. So my post looks like it was done by a second grader.

Maybe you just went acronym crazy ;)

Is that a medical condition? :eek:

Have you ever played Acrophobia (game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It's fun!

I've just noticed that, although the forum converts the actual post from capitals, it keeps the preview (hover over the post name) how it was when it was typed!
