You do realise that co-ordinating Projects is about communicating, planning, liaison and reporting?

To do that, you should be able to gather information, take feedback, and collate it into an easily understandable format - txtspk is not that medium.

btw, as a technical person of over 30 years experience, who has a team of over 130 techies (networks, servers, desktops, coders, etc), I can definitely say none of them use txtspk in work emails and reports.
But posters only represent themselves, not their employer. In any case, if any posters are breaking forum rules, it is for the moderation team to do something about it, not complain on here. If they aren't breaking forum rules you make a moot point.

How true! As an employer I am amazed at how many young kids apply for employment with A* grades that cannot spell even the most basic of words like "grate" instead of "great".

I blame a mixture of text speak, spell check and the ridiculous "London English" that many of them like to talk to sound "gangsta" or "street"
