So this is how it works...
This could be an optional system that you would have to turn on.
It replaces all text words such as 'r' to are, or 'u' to you.
It also adds punctuation depending on the first word of your sentence.
It also auto capitalizes every first word of a sentence.

I just get mad when people shorten every word in their sentences to the point where I can't understand them.

Me too. Care to join me in my crusade to destroy bad grammar, spelling and punctuation in the forums? I've already started by spamming the threads in S&I with corrected sentences.

Again, this is a double post:

No support, this suggestion is completely worthless. I think we'd be an absolutely socially inept society if we let slang be banned. I'm assured we could clearly understand each other if we type 'r's and 'u's.
And if we want to correct other people? That's just a shameless display of your superiority complex.

And to add on, autocorrects just make us dependent on the computer processing words, when it comes time to use pen and paper we're completely lost.

Want to show good grammar? Fine. Forcing other's to use it? No.

This shouldn't be a feature in the Forum be cause if you'd like to hang around in the Forum, then you need proper grammar, otherwise, you'll get a warning by a ROBLOX moderator.

But despite the fact that this system can be in a game, i still don't support. The reason why I don't support is be cause lots and LOTS and LOTS of ROBLOXians, when typing, will use allot of prefixes, and those prefixes will be automatically corrected,and every one will get the use of this, and when you get older or you have a school work to hand over, your going to go on The Word, start typing your task they gave you, and you're going to HAVE to type correctly with no prefixes, which will end up with YOU claimed as a slow typer.

Some people shorten every word in their sentence to the point where I can't understand them. Besides, if kids are learning to use 'slang' they will grow up learning to use some made up language.

Well then avoid those people.
"Besides, if kids are learning to use 'slang' they will grow up learning to use some made up language."
Rather extreme, so no.

Well, this is what I mean by people not using grammar in games. This is what I heard someone say on Catalog Heaven.

Tell me if you can understand that by reading it. If you used proper grammar, then people can understand that faster.

well, this is the internet. people have their own ways of using grammar and punctuation. not everybody uses perfect examples of it.
what if people like having their own little quirks? i like using "u" sometimes over "you" and i prefer not to use proper punctuation on ROBLOX because, hey, i think it makes me sound all serious and *im* not serious when i play games. its *everyones* choice if they want to be or not.
if there were Grammar Only Games, i dont think theyd b too popular. no support.

Do you read the whole thing? I said this would be optional, not mandatory.

Then there would be absolutely no meaning for writing class. Leave grammar for school. It's the god damn internet.

Happy 5K posts to me!

You used incorrect verb-tense agreement. :^)
