Internet Language
Am I alone in being annoyed at the language used online. I mean, talking casually in a chat room it doenst bother me to see people write wit, wot, 4, 2, u, r etc, or type in a combo of LoWeRcAsE aNd CaPs. but when browseing forums i find more and more people are talking like... well idiots. thats how they com out to me, and alot of the posts they are making are very .. childish. its like they have a 5 word vocabulary. and just a sentance or two isnt bad, but a whole paragraph or multiple posts is sooo annyoing imho.
am i alone?

As my old english teacher put,
The sorrow is that people with no pride or ability in their communication may well be robbing the world of its next great genius. They may also be sparing the world the prattling of the fool.

Blaze not alone. Despite my poor grammar  and worse typing  I like to see folks trying to use at least partial sentence construction, not to mention complete words instead of abbrev. 
Sadly, like CD posted, we tend to take little pride in our language and expression. 
Cheers
Mick
