The maker of the 'e' thread. He used that kind of speak all the time, even after I advise him not to do it.

"wtf dud3 g3t r11 n0 5r5ly, k? Ty lawl jk ily, ttyl" FTW?!?!
On a second note, I stopped using imporper grammar when I was 11, but I still use IM talk on AIM and on B.Net, when I need to type fast, ,but I use proper grammer in RP's lol.
On a third note, yes 1337 talk should be warnable stuff.

Just on a similar note, these three are notorious, and really need to be fixed if you're using them wrongly:
"you're" and "your" are totally different. It's your problem if you're using the wrong one.
"aloud" isn't anything like "allowed". When you pronounce them aloud they're identical, but that doesn't mean that you're allowed to write them interchangeably.
"their", "they're", and "there" aren't interchangeable either. They're all valid when used properly in their own ways, but there's a problem when they're used in the wrong context.
Oh, and btw, "grammar" isn't spelt "grammer" - it's a bit silly when someone complains about "spelling and grammer".
Anyway, that's what bugs me the most. (This post wasn't directed at anyone in particular, I just think they're common mistakes).

Affect = verb Effect = noun
It's = condensed form of "it is" Its = possessive pronoun
There is only 1 "e" in "separate".

Its isn't a word, it's is also a possessive pronoun, along with joe's, that guy's and someone's

Don't talk if you don't know what you're talking about, they're both right, one's a Canadian spelling, the other's usa

Wrong on both counts. colour is considered a British spelling.
its is the posessive pronoun "belonging to it", and it's is the contraction of "it is".
To sum up the topic, if such "noob" posting becomes exceedingly annoying, people will get in trouble for it. There already is a rule about posting in leetspeak, posting illegibly, or being annoying in general.
