I type like I speak :-P

I don't say "there will have", "there'll've" is much sorter to speak and type.

I know, I was just pulling your leg :-) If I wrote how I speak then all of my posts would look very different...

Surely you'd just replace all the U's with A's? ;-)

[motorollin]

U -> A
TH -> V
T -> glottal stop

Text messages sent to me using that irritating, over-contracted text message language are immediately deleted from my phone with no response. If people want to communicate with me then they can write properly. I don't see why I should waste my time attempting to decipher their incomprehensible gibberish.

I thought it was just me that hated the incomprehensible gibberish in text messages :pissed:

I bought a PS2 last week as Blockbuster are selling them cheap now that the PS3 has been released. I've just sent a text message to the mobile number of someone in our local paper, asking them what the 10 PS2 games are that they are selling for £30.

A reply has come back:-

"Sal wat fsn butt ug mart red f eden lord ring 2t mouse pol nfl 2k3 antz ww racing endgam"

Erm... Can anyone decipher that for me? :headwall:

red f - Red Faction
Lord Ring 2t - Lord of the Rings The Two Towers
nfl 2k3 - NFL 2003
antz - erm... Antz

No idea about the rest though.

My txting isn't as bad as that, I atleast use commas, periods, dashes etc.

Predictive text is always on on my phone, but it takes too long to come up with what I'm wanting to type so I very rarely use it.

It's got to wait about 2 seconds after each letter is typed before it suggests the wrong word :-P

That sounds like Sony Ericson behaviour.

Motorola V220.

Only had a Phillips, Nokia and now a Motorola phone in 8 years.  This is the only one that I can't switch off predictive text.
