[See, that's what the guide lines are for. They help! For eyes, nose, and mouth at least. But with face length and width, that's up to you really.]

We were talking about drawing anime style on our comic site's forum. The scary thing is, he types "teh" on purpose. ALL THE TIME! I mean, I do it once in a while, but not every time the word "the" has to be used!

And this...this is just... burning_eyes

[Insert like, 50 smileys.]

Quote:
(Me) Uh...they ARE on the site.

And please don't use so many unnecessary smileys.
They make your post look...stupid.

Quote:
(Me)Right now, we are.

But in the unlikely event that more people actually look at the site and come here, I don't want the board to look like a spam-filled...thing made up of a bunch of 3rd graders who can barely type.

Savvy?



If it weren't for the capitalized "NOW," I'd almost say he didn't know what the Shift key was used for. xp

He might have used the caps lock key to do it.

Ugh yeah the over use of smileys is just horrible.
Especially those that go entirely overboard with custom emoticons, replacing half of their sentance with just.. s**t.

My cousins need to learn how to type properly... All they ever do is 'txt tlk' and it drives me insane. *shudders*

It's a skill if you could master 'txt talk' and be able to write properly as well, because I was reading about the fact that a lot of people can't do that, hence not doing well in the English department. sweatdrop

When I have friends that dont type correctly, I either block them or stop talking to them all together. One girl came to me with somethign along the lines of this:
Girl: hoo r u
Me: What?
Girl: hoo s dis
Me: Do you mean to say, Who is this?
Girl: y
Me: I dont know why, you were the one trying to ask it
Girl: no who is this
Girl: there
Me: Oh.. Well, I dont think it matters now
Girl: y?
Me: Because Im blocking you..

Apparently the first 'y' was to stand for yes.

Oh and for thos ewho are wondering why I am saying what I am saying, it is because I love to 'play', quite cruelly at times, with 'those types' of people.
