If You Don't Capitalize...

i usually use punctuation and spacing to make it easier to read. but capitalizing doesn’t really make things easier to read

:finger: :stuck_out_tongue:

I do agree on your other points though, some people type out real long posts with no spacing and hardly any punctuation. It’s a real PITA

English-Sminglish.

idk wot th fk ur taking bout.

“Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” is a great book.
You should suck it up and give it a read.

I was composing a response to a dumbass post in my mind the other day, but never got around to posting it. The gist of it is these kids that don’t punctuate, capitalize, and/or intentionally misspell, typically are looking for advice.

And they aren’t looking for advice from other dumbass kids. They are looking for responses from those older and wiser. On this board, for the most part, the language of those older and wiser is English.

For what it’s worth, if some dumbass is looking for advice but refuses the use the lingua franca, I suggest that the only response they are worthy of is the line from Pulp Fiction:

English mother fucker! Do you speak it?

FWIW, if you’re posting on these forums and don’t capitalize where appropriate, don’t punctuate, don’t use paragraphs and don’t attempt to spell correctly, I don’t read your posts. Skip right over 'em.

So just think, you could be telling the funniest joke ever, revealing the secret of how to understand women, laying out plans for how to build a nuclear weapon in your basement, proving that Mike Mentzer’s ghost has sex with Elvis’ ghost at Graceland, and offer free Workout Surge to all who ask and…I’d never know it.[/quote]

ill never care

how about you stop trying to seem so fucking important with your grammar captain spellcheck. not everyone takes the same approach to posting on T-Nation as they would a research paper.

LOL. just by chance… guess eating my wheaties pays off after all.

It’s not a bad way to filter the forums if you’re looking for a decent discussion or some information worth reading =]

I read the responses, I just don’t take them seriously.

Oh, and I try to take them seriously, but the only thing that comes to mind when I see posts like that is sen say and his interweb tough guy bit. Cracks me up every time.

so this means the kittens are safe when i masturbate?

just what i’ve been waiting for for years!!

The way I see it, if we weren’t supposed to masturbate, the internet would’ve never been created. Ignore all it’s other uses for this post please.
