Your chatting style

[Samuraid]

From your daily adventures around the Hive chat room and other chat systems, what is your chat style? Do you have any unique and personal things you do when you chat?

 

[Oziris]

WTF BRB......Idk srry....Rolf this makes me lol! ahahhah ok
i use normal spelling all the time.

 

[Hakeem]

I use proper spelling and grammar, except I might use AFK.
I use "lol", but I figure it's a valid word now. It sounds like a natural sound for laughing, but it's second to "ha".

 

[GST_Nemisis]

i dont capitalise, use proper grammar or spell properly...mainly for 2 reasons, A, i am dyslexic so i have problems with spelling and handwriting and B, its extra effort for not much. also where is the option for "use sarcasm as much as possible"?

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Imma RPer, I use capitals, caps, dots, periods etc always.

But not much .'s and I do use emoticons or words like lol or afk, I don't mind that.

 

[Hakeem]

Oh, and I intentionally don't use periods at the end of /me commands for some reason.

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Lolwut?!
___________

 

[Kuhneghetz]

I try to write as I write in the forums.

 

[Daminon]

[Infinitynexus]

I butcher the english language on a daily basis, doing pretty much all of it.

Depends how much of in a hurry I am, or how lazy

 

[HINDYhat]

i dun capitalzie mai sentnces but kan u maik m3 sum narut0 modulz fur miy DoTA map plzzz kkthx <emote spam goes here>

<and here>

Actually though, I try to write my best, but I do give away a couple of spelling/grammar errors, because English isn't my first language.

 

[annoying]

I give away like a lot of smilies/emoctions and such. I say OK sometimes, and I also do a bit of LOL, but not A LOT.

[The_wand_mirror]

i just talk however i want to.. although i talk on forums like this <--

and mostly talk in chat like this <--

Any difference? -.- naah -__-

 

[brad.dude03]

I use correct spelling and grammar whenever possible. English is my first (and only) language, so I really don't have an excuse. I do use some internetspeek like brb, lol, pwn, ftw, etc, but not overly.

 

[Elenai]

I have absolutely no idea...Apparantly I use Archaic language though.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

I generally use correct spelling.

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

I try to write as I write in the forums.

Same for me. In chat I sometimes forget dots (.) though.

 

[The Curse]

Depends. When I'm lazy I resort to abbreviations. Usually I try to spell fairly well.

 

[Darth_Muppet]

I dont care to much about grammar and i use abbreviations quite a bit.
lol is the only achronym i use. But i dont get L337 one bit...

 

[Daminon]

We like smileys ja. (o,o)

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Oziris chose "I generally use correct spelling."

That is motherfucking hilarious.

You know, I ought to hold you to that.


In chat mode, I sometimes capitalize my sentences, usually use periods, spell correctly when I can, and use acronyms.

You can tell that the people here are full of shit because "I generally use correct spelling" is the most commonly chosen option.

 

[brad.dude03]

Yeah I was just about to say that. There are alot of people that chose that option that really shouldn't have, because they don't.

 

[GST_Nemisis]

i dont think correct spelling is imperative, so long as the general jist of what is being said makes sense.

 

[Modo]

I try for perfect grammar and spelling, but I think I may be dyslexic. I don't use many emoticons. I do use many puns, and this is where a lot of my emoticon use comes in.

 

[~Void~]

Oziris chose "I generally use correct spelling."

Hmm... I think he was leaning more towards "I generally try to use correct spelling."

 

[brad.dude03]

Or "I generally think that i'm spelling correctly when really i'm not at all."

 

[donut3.5]

I use the best grammar and spelling I can when posting, when chatting, usually no caps, but still correct spelling and grammar.
--donut3.5--

 

[Xatoga]

I use proper spelling for the most part, except I also use 'lol' and 'brb' often. I sometimes capitalize, sometimes don't. One thing I do kinda often is type in a... Scottish... dialect, using things like 'me' for 'my' and 'yeh' instead of 'you', and say 'laddy' a lot. I think it's because I originally used chatting mostly for working on War of the Three Hammers.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

I use the best grammar and spelling I can when posting, when chatting, usually no caps, but still correct spelling and grammar.
--donut3.5--

Ironic. Very ironic.

 

[donut3.5]

I knew I was going to use bad grammar there for once, so I put as best I can in there
--donut3.5--

 

[ZypherXII]

I usually try to avoid abbreviations and emoticons when posting. I also periodically look up words when not sure how to spell it. I tend to use a lot of unneeded periods/dots in the end of my sentences which is a really bad habbit.

I try to keep the same style when chatting but I do use a lot of emoticons when chatting.

 

[Rao Dao Zao]

As perfect spelling and grammar as I can muster. Occasionally I'll let slip when I'm typing really fast, but ninety-nine-point-nine percent is perfecto.

Occasional colloquialisms enter as in normal speech, words like 'bloke'...

I only use l33t5p34k or acronyms when I'm being ironic or silly.

 

[Daminon]

Mostly perfect grammar with some modifications. :} And lots of smileys. (^,^) ja

 

[DragoonZombie]

Looks like some ppl drifted away from the topic: "Chat".

Chat	Forum	Choices
X		I don't captialize my sentences generally
X		I don't use periods at the end of all my sentences
X		I use a lot of abbreviations like "ur" and "plz"
		I'm a smiley/emoticon whore :3
		1 U53 L337 4 L0t
X	X	I use a lot of common internet achronyms like LOL, BRB, FTW, and so forth
	X	I generally use correct spelling
		Chat? What's that?

 

[aznddongman]

4,6, and 7.

I usually capitalize with good spelling, but I use some internet words like dood and bai. I use lol, ftw, g2g, stuff like that. I'm an emoticon whore

lol :X

 

[Shados]

I do whatever I like!

Other than that, I usually go along the lines of what Rao said, but I'm chaotic by nature, so I may randomly decide to speak in lolcats style for a day, for instance.

-*meow*

 

[<Offspring>]

i use stuff like lol, brb, pwned, nabtard, afk, w8, ftw, nab, gief, woot, laff, rofl, lmao, roflmao, ROFLMAOZ0R all the time.

 

[Technomancer]

4, 6, and 7, although I'm more than willing to act like a fool for the enjoyment of the masses. Or myself. Or just for the hell of it.

Generally though, I try to keep my conversing legible, so that people don't get the wrong idea about what I'm trying to say.

I have been known to sometimes ignore acronyms all together, and type out "Be right back." instead of "Brb" or "HAE GUIS I AME GOWING AWAE FRUM MAH COMPRUDER FORE EH BYT!" instead of "Afk".

 

[GloryBlade]

I tend to use correct grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling. But i definitely shorten things a lot too- like, imo, fyi, brb, and of course lol. And i tend to - - - >< - - and the equivilants.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Wow, 75%...

I hope this thread serves as a reminder that internet people lie even about their internet lives.
