Yes, and I suspect most of those who use it cannot spell the words they mean.

I mostly ignore the questions that use this method.
With the computer these days there is no need for it.
A little is ok but some try to use it too much.

si, but sometimes I use it when I really need to in an emergency.
"Honey, get off the computer . . . quick! There is a lightning storm!"
[And I am on my computer, IMing my friend]
I type: g2g ttyl srry
I guess internet slang has some of its advantages.

yeah it bothers me pretty good.. its okay to abbreviate some words at times, but i find it unnecessary to abbreviate words that are only about 4 or 5 letters to begin with.

I don't mind as long as I can understand it without too much trouble. It saves time. And yes I can read that.

Yes it does. Some of it makes no sense.

It's a little annoying. But readable; so it's cool.

Yes, It's annoying. It's as if they are trying to be cool.
