I don't think that will work long term.

tl;dr

Hehe =p But.. yeah, to try and prod this thrad back onto the happy freeway of on topicness... Ill admit that really long threads kinda put me off. Especially if i look and it says "Thread Created: 34 minuites ago. 8 pages long..." Heh. YOu guys type and respond waaaay faster than im used to, and thats a good thing.. its just im usually busy and when i hit f4 half an hour later theres like, 3 whole more pages there xD kinda puts me off.

And, blissfully, theres not a lot of it on this forum, but i hate when people use internet acronyms for EVERYTHING.

Like..:
IMHO, teh POTUSA should stfu about his new policy, its totatlly ott and makes me rofl just tahsur. yk? Idk, nyway, im hear your playing SSB later? gl, hf!

Nuuuu xD

Still, when I see stuff like that im tempted to get the ol' Viz dictionary out.. Aha! Slang to the face! =p

In my defense I don't use txt speak or l33t or slang in general.

But I think tl;dr is rich language, full of connotations. So I kinda like it.

Too long, didn't read. Although I more frequently see it as simply TLDR.

That is rather disturbing. Like if the Exxon/Mobil logo appeared on Bush's forehead.

In my humble opinion the President of the United States should shut the (fornication under consent of the king) up about his new policy, it's totally over the top and makes me roll on the floor laughing (I can't translate "just tashur", never seen it), you know? I don't know, anyway, I hear you're playing (SSB? Anyone?), good luck, have fun.

Also I should point out a lot of this isn't so much general netspeak as specifically gamerspeak. Stuff like "GL, HF" is stuff people type in online games when the timer is counting down to start a game and you don't have a lot of time to type a longer message.
