[The Squatter of Amon Rûdh]

I often have a lot of trouble understanding it... I understand Norwegian chatese (at least to some extent), but English? As I said, I've got enough with ordinary English.

I was thinking of saying something like that myself. It isn't fair on the members for whom English isn't a first language to use opaque abbreviations and obscure acronyms. It isn't fair on those of us who went to school before the Internet existed either. Not everyone can understand the weirder short-cuts, so we ought to stick to a standard that we can all comprehend, which is after all why we have rules of spelling and grammar. Your English is very good, vanwalossien. I'd never have guessed you were from Norway.
