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:

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.
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.
