The thing that bothers me the most is when people post using text messaging shorthand. It's not like you don't have a full keyboard sitting in front of you, unlike most phones.

R U getting it?

Poor grammar and street language, 'cuz

My biggest pet peeve is overuse of IM-style abbreviated text; the worst example I've ever seen--from elsewhere on the Web--went something like this:

Every time I read this kind of crap, I just mentally cringe because it gives the impression that the writer has the IQ of a houseplant.

I had a hard time choosing out of the top 6.

I must say though, out of all the forums I visit, this one is at the very top as far as proper grammar and spelling, knowledge, and people respecting each other's opinions.

Sometimes drama is entertaining, but I would rather have a conversation with articulate, educated people any day.




edit: I think we over use this =====> . That really annoys me
