Hm, actually I think you are right. The orcs simply didn't need to write. Of course, there might have been some who could because they needed to due to their "jobs" like scout or spies. Hm there is this scene where Shagrat talks to Snaga (or was it Gorbag) about a "message" that has arrived. But I think that could also be a message brought by a messenger and was not written down. But it seems logical that only the leaders could write, because of the above mentioned reason.


By the way, this is my 500th post! Yippieeeee!
I know that this is off topic, I just wanted to let you all know [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
