If you expect help then please speak in English, apart from being hard to read writing in txt speak makes you look like you are 10 years old. People will be less likely to take you serious.

And its all well and good saying you have slow speed, but with no info to go on how on earth are we meant to help you?

Modem stats, ping and tracert results, a real download speed test... like from here http://gamefiles.virginmedia.com/blueyondergames/b5ifh/ifhsetup.exe

ok 1 our call times are like 7min not 85min and if its our fault we pay for the call

what?
24-07-2007, 18:48
and the reason our call times r not 85mins is because its illegal

under icstis regulation, we have to end the call at 20 mins regardless

no matter what though, if we are still unsure as to the source of the issue
(modem or pc) which is very rarey the case we wil offer u call back

so maximum cost to u IS £5.10

im not using a router incase your wondering but then you dont care all you care about is slagging me off ! i mean none of you no me in person so how can yuou judge ? also just cuz someone dresses or takes a different way doesnt mean that you should label them. not everyone is posh & well off like you lot & do we slag you off ? no ! i come from a posh family but im not posh, i find people from council estates to be nicer people & more unjudgemental. so take that how you want i dont care i dont go around calling you lot posh or born with a silver spoon or anything so i dont expect the same. i believe that you treat people how you want to be treated but im the better person cuz im not going to lower myself to your level by acting like you lot. also so what if i type different, i type the way that i talk, but then i guess that your too posh to understand & you stick your nose up & me. thats why i dont like (infact i hate) posh people but i take people how i find them not from how they type, what they ware, where their from etc cuz its whats inside that counts. so get off yoour orange box & unless you are perfect you have no rite to judge me or anyone else, cuz none of us are perfect !

No one is slagging you off.

But i think you give the right to do so with how you just typed, i read one sentence and gave up.

If you want help, then speak properly, otherwise expect people to comment on things.

(Deleted repeat)

I was born and brought up on a council estate, however if i ever need to request help or information, posting in clear concise sentences, with grammar and punctuation goes a hell of a long way. All anyone has done is asked you to repost in a format that is easy for all to read, rather than the L337 TXT SPK that you were using, most of the responders were not "slagging you off".
However by jumping on your soapbox and "going completely bursar"* as you did above, will most likely result in you recieving very little in the way of help.

& btw i only typed the above so that all of you can read it but im not gona change the way that i type to suite u

In which case, why should anyone go out of their way to help you.

Of course it matters. Clarity is essential when describing problems. The more people that understand the post, the more likely you are to get a helpful response. If anyone posted a question on here that was written in Urdu/Russian/Arabic there would be a much smaller chance of getting an answer. It's the same thing. *******ised English limits the number of people who can understand the question.

emm writing in a diff language is a little diff than the way he was writing

I disagree. For example, if a question was posted in French I would have a similar chance of getting the gist of it from words that I recognised, but could not fully understand the finer points. It's the same with TXT speak. Odd words are intelligible, but the full meaning is lost, or at best confused.

25-07-2007, 17:07
emm writing in a diff language is a little diff than the way he was writing

Why, it could be called a different language, the same as American English is a different language to "Queen's"* English which in turn is a different language to Australian English.

However, when using a "public" forum like this one, it is best to use a dialect that is read and understood by the majority of users.

*British English is a misnomer, we have far too many regional dialects, "Queen's" English sort of gets the point across without causing offence.

It doesn't make the forum very welcoming, and if you don't like reading it then don't post in the thread? Maybe a polite request to not use text speak would have gone down better...?

Like i said in this thread (http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/22/33617549-should-we-simplify-spelling.html#post34348213) who are we to be so rude???

Use Firefox or something with a spell check in, it's annoying to see the English language used in such a Lazy disrespectful way, everyone makes the odd spelling mistake but to write with such a total disregard for the language is disturbing, probably expected in a Blair/Brown Britain as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah but.... it does say in the forum etiquette guide and FAQ not to use text speak. So basically the point is, if you use proper words instead of abbreviating it all then they can read it easier.

I don't think the mods are avoiding this because their "mates" are having a go at you... Maybe if you sent a friendly pm to an admin or mod to explain you're not happy they might take a look, but i suspect they'll request that you refrain from using text speak. Take a look here: http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/34141747-post1.html

This bit in particular.... Write in clear, grammatical, correctly-spelled language.

People who are careless and sloppy writers are usually also careless and sloppy at thinking and applying (often enough to bet on, anyway). Answering questions for careless and sloppy thinkers is not rewarding; the readers will rather spend their time elsewhere.

So expressing your question clearly and well is important.

Writing like a l33t script kiddie hax0r is the absolute kiss of death and guarantees you will receive nothing but stony silence (or, at best, a heaped helping of scorn and sarcasm) in return.

Describe the symptoms of your problem carefully and clearly.
Describe the environment in which it occurs (machine, OS, application, whatever).
Describe the research you did to try and understand the problem before you asked the question.
Describe the diagnostic steps you took to try and pin down the problem yourself before you asked the question.
Describe any recent changes in your computer or software configuration that might be relevant.
Do the best you can to anticipate the questions people will ask, and to answer them in advance in your request for help.Courtesy never hurts, and sometimes helps.

Be courteous. Use "Please" and "Thanks for your time" or "Thanks for your help". Make it clear that you appreciate the time people spend helping you for free. To be honest, this isn't as important as (and cannot substitute for) being grammatical, clear, precise and descriptive. However, if you've got your technical ducks in a row, politeness does increase your chances of getting a useful answer.

You're quite right, it doesn't justify calling you a chav. Look, i am far from posh, i live on a council estate in the north east and to some people on here i'm probably classed as chav, but they'd never know that because i type normal words. And i'm afraid the txt spk and "typing how you talk" is usually linked to chavs who can't be arsed to spell or don't know how to. I'm sure you've just got into a habit of typing how you talk, but on forums like this it doesn't go down too well as you've seen.

It's more than likely that this thread will get closed, because it's well and truly off topic, but when it does, i think you should start a new thread, try typing normal words and you'll be suprised.... the people on this forum are really good and you can get help on loooooads of things, so it's a handy place to be a member of. Just don't type txt spk and nobody will have reason to have a go ;)

Some of us have actually tried to offer help, however this in turn required you to explain the problem in a clear concise manner, which you have repeatedly refused to do, it's a 2 way street, help us to help you.

Ok, you called the 0906 number and nobody answered? or you cant call the 0906 number?

If you did call the 0906 number what did they say? Did they imply you have spyware or some faulty equipment or what ?

If you want help then you are going to need to play ball a little and just ignore anybody who seems to be calling you names.

Please for god sake type in English and not 'txt' speak. You sound as if your 12, not 23. And you still have not answered my question if you write like this on your CV, covering letter or at work. Thats assuming you have or are looking for a job? But forget all that, its in the forum rules that you are supposed to read before signing up, which says no txt speak.

Regardless, you have been offered help, but are not more concerned about someone calling you a chav. Your 23 for god sake, grow up, type properly and if you have a problem with any of us, tell a mod.

Its not the decision of anybody on these forums to charge premium rates so there is no point continuing to argue in this thread.

:LOL: Nope i don't live near a pub, closest is probs the brinkburn but i don't live on the Dene's. And it's far from the roughest place to be, branksome is worse, and everyone from there claims they live in Cockerton:rofl:
