No. I like to lmao and lol as sentence to start end ends sentences though
 
I try my best to, but typos and grammar mistakes still happen. The typos are always embarrassing. ;u;
 
Depends. When talking to people privately on Steam or Skype, I don't care about proper capitalization and often use shorthand. They also know to not expect anything more, and most of them talk in a similar way. On the forums I use proper spelling, capitalization, punctuation and grammar (though I know my grammar isn't perfect), unless I'm joking.
 
In all honesty,yes and no.I normally do,but when it comes to my less...my friends who like to use a lot of slang and spell words using shortcuts,I do a 180 and talk to them like that as well,because sometimes they won't understand what I'm trying to write unless I write it on their level...
 
when im on sites like this, nah

when im writing short stories or my novel, yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyis
 
i use grammar when i'm being at least a little serious, or typing something that would be easier to read with grammar
it gives me a way to communicate my tone, even if just a little bit
 
i dont bother with capitalization. but in more professional cases, then yeah i'd type properly

idk, I usually use a weird mix of the two sometimes I'll miss a capitalization or two and miss a period but it just depends on my mood
I'll usually use proper grammar or spelling if I need to write an email or something but eh?
 
I try my best to type with correct grammar and spelling, though I'll still use various internet acronyms or slang alongside smileys. It's something that I've gotten used to since I was eleven years old, so typing as properly as I can just comes naturally to me.
 
I pretty much use it most of the time except on Skype. I was told it was intimidating so I don't really do it with friends anymore.

mine is a mix. really depends on my mood i guess.
 
When I type on forums like this, then yeah I type mostly "properly" (using correct sentences, punctuation, capital letters, tend to use abbreviations 'cause I kinda post in the way that I talk a lot of the time). When I Skype message with friends, though... Kinda turns into a mess really. LOL but it's fun though especially when me and my friend are live-messaging each other when watching Game of Thrones or w/e. :rolleyes:
 
i'l often type like this when in group chats and i'll even say things like... adding an 8 to replace a couple of letters for example in wait rate hate, but i mean thats only when i'm super comfortable around people im talking to or if I dont care enough to bother with it

I personally like it when people type with proper grammer even in chat rooms though~ its nice~
