This is not a criticism of anyone for whom English is a second language, but more a plea for nicely written posts that are easy to read and follow.

It is true that it can be annoying, but the trouble is that not everyone has the same level of literacy, and therefire I tend to just ignore it rather than correct people. However with text speak I almost always ask them not to do it as it is totally unecessary
