On the subject of trying to eliminate text speak:
1) Thank you, thank you, thank you. For me it's THE most annoying
problem on here.
2) If anyone has suggestions for text speak abbreviations that need filtering out, should we just PM you guys, or maybe have a "Text Speak Filter requests" thread ? Maybe keep the first post updated with the full list of filtered "words" (I use the term loosely), which gets edited up to date whenever anyone makes a suggestion. It also gives us a post to link thick people to in a bid to educate them
