I don't particularly hate it - it just takes me longer to read the message

Yep I hate it but when you have a limited amount of space to send a message you do have to abbreviate in some way. I agree though it looks really wrong. Its used so commonly now though, I think in a few years most people will have become illiterate and won't know how to spell properly!

I hate it ONLY when I'm the one reading it. At times... I wouldn't understand what my friends or family are trying to say. But,... I don't mind doing it. Id jus spel lyk dat wen I get 2 tired 0r 2 lazy. Still, grammar is important, especially when the message is an EMERGENCY.

its OK in places, when your running out of space or need to send a really quick text, but there are not real set spellings, so its difficult for some people, like my Dad!

Yes. It's now even unnecessary in text messages since most phones have predictive text. I also don't understand why people can't capitalise, "i" for instance.
