I'd say the "u" and "ur" stuff is the worst. I find it's very very hard to come across as intelligent if you use those in your writing. I do try not to judge people too prematurely as I've seen intelligent people use them before, but those who do should perhaps consider the impression they might make. It's more acceptable (although still largely silly) in an IM conversation but on a forum we can surely spend the extra few seconds to type our words out in their entirety. Oh well, hardly worth getting worked up about in any event.  |
Keep in mind that at one point and time, "OK" wasnt accepted as proper english. In fact, many words we use today stem from somebody either making them up, or changing the spelling or something like this. Therefore, you should take into account that perhaps one day, the slang people use online will become accepted english.
Just something to think about I guess.
