If you are texting someone I can see the need for brevity, but here and other message boards you have the time and space to use proper English in order for everyone to understand what it is you are trying to say. Why is that so difficult to grasp?

I do it-- especially here-- it's kind of a dialect thing, a way of saying, " I'm being informal and not serious here. Relaxed and not rigid about what I'm saying. If you want to disagree with it, I'm not going to call down the grammar cops on your head, or fight to the death about it. "

Kingeicholz,perhaps by using adult language,I could tell you my real feelings."Go hence and procreate in an undiscerning and liberal fashion,you male gendered offspring of an immoral and indiscriminate termagent". Now put that last sentence into "lazy speak" and work out which is the more polite. Salutations.

So in order to become a "KINGAMANIC" (whatever the hell THAT is!), all I need to do is forget how to type, spell, and use conversational English? Wow. How very "leet" of you.

That's pretty much what I just assumed. Both are obvious about what they're really intending to do here, and the appearance of the one so soon after the other suggests that they're closely related.

The name of the OP here also suggests that both are fully aware of what they are doing.

Enough so that I'm starting to believe that this isn't some newcomer, but someone with a pre-existing account.

Because of the comments about the acceptability of the internet "txt" (clear irony) I'm also reasonably sure this ISN'T whozits, who doesn't really use correct grammar and spelling. I could be wrong, but I suspect this is someone trying to frame whozits. Someone who usually has impeccable grammar and spelling.

Does anyone here have any recent reason to troll here? And a past history of descending to internet speak to mock other board users when pushed into a fight?

Well, Out2theBlack has been called out on a few things in RWED, and he's been ducking some people over there.

But I don't think he's clever enough to resort to the whole "txt-spk" thing.

I think it's best to assume all of us are clever enough to pull something off like this, because someone could very well be acting on their normal account.

Out2theBlack doesn't seem right, though, I haven't seen anything to indicate they might act like this in retaliation to arguments on the RWED, and these attacks are not aimed at any one person in particular... Unless it's to annoy people, like yourself, for whom bad grammar is a pet peeve.

And though I know you like to cause a bit of chaos now and then, I honestly can't think of any reason why you'd want to pretend to be either of these people.

...>_> I like Chrisisall, but, has anyone seen him recently? This seems like something he might do for fun.

ecgordon: I actually don't have any problems with whozits. His bagel signature never bothered me, and I think the posts he makes contribute to the community even IF they are somewhat lacking in spelling and grammar.

In the other thread, I only started to respond because I read a comment that made it obvious to me that this was trolling, and decided to try to help Kwicko counter-troll. When I get in that mode, I admit it, I have a dark side and I can get mean. I try not to though, because doing so means fighting fire with fire, often such that other posters may become uncomfortable.

Chaos? I don't know if I'd say I like to cause chaos... I *do* tend to play devil's advocate now and again. I try to be that little voice in the back of the room, listening to all the grandiose plans, and then quietly saying, "...and THEN what happens?" Call me the Minister of the Day After Tomorrow. :)


Besides, I couldn't do the bad grammar/text-speak thing. I'm not cut out for it. Even when I text, it's in conversational English. Probably why I don't do it very often!

He might at that - but then he'd ask for a list of our favorite internet slang! (Kidding. We love you, Chris, and your goofy lists, too!)

So who are our two latest trolls? Personally, I don't know, and I don't care. We can bat 'em around and have some fun with 'em, or we can refuse to feed them and watch them starve. I'm fine with either approach.

Hey, I must have better software than I thought. The spelling checker just picked up that I spelled arroint with only 1 "r", and then corrected itself when I used 2...

"decefered"?
Could you decipher that for us, please?

If you'd like to get along with the folks here, KingEicholz, please tone down your ego and outrageous claims, and type so that all can understand. It's simple courtesy.

If you prefer negative attention to courtesy, continue as you are.

I could give a shit about grammar & spelling...seriously, folks, I'm from Kentucky. It don't make a bit of difference to me about your spelling or grammar or any of that. For me, it's about WHAT you're saying, not HOW you say it. (This could be another reason I've spent a lot of my time staring at the corner...) For the record, I'm a lot more highly educated than I probably sound, and my mom's an English teacher, so I get being annoyed with incorrectness. But I ain't expecting a grade on what I say here, so I could give a shit...

Just sayin'...

You may not care, but everything in your post was spelled correctly and grammatically correct (for the most part I think, I'm not an English teacher). I have a problem when someone's grammar and spelling is so bad it is difficult to understand what they are saying. It also irritates me how there are a lot of people who don't seem to care, even seem proud, that they can't spell correctly. At least get as close to correct as you can.
