To be honest, 50% of the brits on this forum make the same mistakes, it's like attempting to use the windshield cleaning liquid of your car while it's raining.

Too true, formal language/writing is not necessary in every day life anyway, otherwise everything would be so boring.

Properly contructed sentences, grammar, spelling and syntax are the conerstones of civilization. I could probably draw comparisons between the growing prevalence of "Text speak" and the the declining state of our society but I can't be bothered.

Give over. The ancient greeks didn't even put spaces in between their words.

Yes, I second that, but.. I was just saying in every day chat, you don't need to structure sentences and use the correct grammar in every-day chat, otherwise you'd come across as a cock...

I do English Lit, and I never really get coursework handed back to me for grammar/spelling problems, but if you do, you get a knife thrown at you.

I was unaware that Kelsey Grammer visited this forum enough for him to be considered an issue.

That'll be because speech and text are completely different. Speech has the power of an immediate back and forth, whereby ambiguities can be cleared up quickly. We're also more accepting of vocal errors, since conversation by any human being is flawed in many ways. These flaws stick out more in text than in speech since we're much more accustomed to reading correct text than incorrect ones, so we don't fill in the gaps like with do with verbal communication.

Conversation Analysis (while fucking shit and seriously flawed) is actually very good at highlighting just how flawed speech is, and how we subconsciously deal with and process it.

Don't agree with "You'd come across as a cock" thing.

Proper communication is defined by the majority anyway - and with time passing, language "improves" or "deteriorates" as dictated by geo-politics and social majority, as well as other factors, as illustrated below.

That is how other languages now incorporate words from english or french, or how english formally recognizes LOL. Of course, it's a slow process, but you get the jest of it.

Point is, you would come across as a cock by using proper language/spelling if your peers make use of the same language as you've displayed some posts ago.
However, in a more elevated circle, you'd just be normal.





*Yes, I'm aware I came across as a cock :D

Hurry up and release FM!!!! I am Stoke at the moment and fuck me they suck. They are all old, shit and don't have entry to the reserve league so I have to make loads of friendlies against the u18's to keep match fitness up.

The new FM won't fix Stoke, but I like new shiny fings!

I also tried a game with Stoke. A mistake that I shall never make again.

Terrible if you can't make Stoke into a force on FM. Mimic there tactics in RL.

The edit/add league on an existing save is yum for next FM.
