I really do. It’s not full of… ignorant people.

People don’t type “your” as “ur”

People don’t type “L8er”

People don’t yell at me for not liking a certain thing.

People back up their argument with proof. None of that “Because I said so” stuff.

I really like this board.

Must resist…urge…to kill…text messager!

You think that’s bad. Try to use the words ‘their’, ‘they’re’ and ‘there’s’ interchangably and watch the Killer Cyborg Grammer Nazis come after you 🙂

Perhaps you like this message board because it is frequented by mature, well-educated, urbane, sophisticated and intelligent people. But above all, we are modest about that. LOL

It’s my point exactly. Even when they’re shortening something they make mistakes. I’ve also seen “L8ter” :rolleyes:

Well, be more specific about which certain thing you don’t like, and we’ll decide whether or not to yell at you. 😛

Yes, thank the maker (of the SDMB) for this glorious place of well founded opinions and perfect grammer/punctuation.
