yes! i really like wrongplanet.net for its clear, plain english.
in own view,its not clear plain english on here,am always having to use kitadic on posts because have got no clue what a lot of the words mean.
with the majority of users on here being aspies,theres a heck of a lot of complex language in use.
as for the original topic,dont go expecting it like a overall rule
wont ever take part in 'txt chat' but am very grammar,spelling and language challenged due to brain injury,severe autism and ID,didnt used to be as bad in this area until had had some especialy bad BIs from unprotected head banging.
fair enough and pretty reasonable.
i think there is a difference between people who are doing their best, and people who just don't care.
but, everyone is free to communicate however they want. in the end, to me, that is what's great about the internet. if someone doesn't like it, they are always free not to read it, right?
i think what's great about WrongPlanet people is folks try really hard to understand and be understood (except for trolls of course).
for the record, "chatspeak" (i am assuming stuff like "omg" and "lol") started as shortcuts used by people using the hard-of-hearing chat function over the telephone, not gamers or anyone else.
