You might not get any help if you dont write in proper English instead of that ridiculous text gibberish

Didn't mean to offend!, AnalogueSat.
as I said I am new and will make some mistakes along the way.
but will keep this in mind for next time.
ok. (so how's the language in this message. any better?... lol.)

Far better thank you.

Many of our members are older generation folks who cant read txt so you wont get the benefit of their help and experience to solve problems.

I work in one of the local high schools so Ive got used to reading most of it, but some of it still baffles me.... If the kids email me in txt I refuse to answer until they email me in proper English

Hello.Khany.Welcome to the forum.
It is true that reading text lingo is hard work for us oldes.Well for me it is.
But we try our best.

Takes too long to type that text gibberish, as time I have worked out what the 'translation' is, I could have typed it out in full.
