    I think people need to learn not to butt in on how people type. As their could be reasons for it. Like being disabled. My suggestion to the "community". Is look up the term "game" is. I just had some elitist just walk up to me in game and tell me I play dancer wrong abd that my "misguided ways" need to be "addressed". pretty much acting like their are my saviour and come to rid me of my noob ways.

    Though said person never seen me play dancer and got this info from these forums. Then after several times being nice and saying no ty. While also asking for proof of how they are my one of the 2 best dancers on the server. they pretty much call me a lost cause.

    Best way, do not speak for everyone. As no one play the game for the same reasons. I play just to have fun and relax I could care less of end game or having the best gear.

    Anyway that my two cents and an example of a possible wall of text.

    PS. I miss the old days of ffxi, when ppl actually played like as a game.

    Yeah I saw the screen shot on FFXIAH of how the conversation went down, and honestly I laughed so hard! You honestly are a lost cause, and you're not contributing to this thread you are just down right complaining. Please next time just don't even speak ok? Most of us would appreciate less of a headache from you if you have nothing to actually contribute.

    On to this thread, yes I agree with the majority. If you can't properly say what needs to be said in the right way, paraphrasing everything that is important even if it is lengthy, then stop typing like you are in kindergarten about to give your first essay on how mommy and daddy are the best!

    Personally, I very very rarely comment on people's typos and grammar mistakes. I'm fully aware that there is such a thing called dyslexia.

    However, there's a huge difference between that, and the kind of posts which most of us here have a problem with - the major wall of texts, no paragraphs, often with little to no punctuation aswell. It makes it incredibly hard to read. If you have something you want to tell the community, please make a little effort so that your post is readable and people don't give up before they've even started reading it.

    Personally, it also irks me when people say "u" instead of "you", "y" instead of "why" and when they don't know the difference between "your" and "you're". It's just..... sloppy and lazy, at least that's how I feel about it.

    As for the rest of your post (the part I left out of the quote), wtf does that have to do with this thread's topic?

    How about "lawl" instead of "lol"? I swear whenever I see someone type "lawl" it makes me want to club baby seals or something. -.-

    I kid, but yes please to the no walls of text.

    Also some people don't have keyboards ingame so abbreviating with Y and U are faster. However, on this forum, I will slap you for it.
    Agreed - I don't mind "u" and "y" etc so much in game, but in forum posts.... Ugh!

    You are a bad kind of person, and it has nothing to do with being ADD. I have ADD.

    some things call for a simple answer hell who even cares about grammer

    Some things are much more intricate and take much longer to describe, require examples, or even essay format.

    I fail to see a reason that allows people to type "u", "r", ect.
