    the way Q&A section is heading, I have a strong feeling it will lose its essence soon... I mean most of the questions are so basic and mostly homework questions.. Coders don't even try to search them on the web as most of them are answered here... :mad: I don't feel like going there again.. :sigh: Welcome to Lounge... ;P :-\ :thumbsup:

      You've made a choice to stop answering programming questions and relax in the Lounge instead? That's kind of a shame, as I'm sure Graus and the others who answer a lot of questions in Quick Answers could use the backup. I hope you reconsider. However, welcome to the Lounge anyway. Oh, and please do use full words. If you have trouble with English, you can download OpenOffice.org for free and it will spell check for you. I believe Google Chrome will do that for you too (so you can get spell checking while you are typing in the Lounge).

      Yeah, I get annoyed when people answer homework questions. There should be a sign in Quick Answers that says "don't feed the bears."

        Well then, that makes you a special kind of stupid. You're typing on a real computer - use real words here, or you'll consistently be harassed.

          It seems the Asian continent are suffering from a batch of faulty keyboards.

          All right, you guys, I got eight crates of Ipecac from Mort. All on my tab. Now, whoever goes the longest without puking gets the last piece of pie in the fridge.

              If we were to type in Asia, I suspect they'd think all our keyboards were broken as well. At least we have the sense to not type there. ;P

Coders (no right to be called that) don't even bother to search for answers on the web, as most of them are answered here. I am sick of that place and don't feel like going there again. You can't be bothered to , like, press keys and stuff in the correct - or at least an appropriate - order, but complain about users that show similar laziness but at least try to get their homework done? If you prefer to live in a better world, stop making it worse first.

                        You seem to be under some form of misapprehension here. Not everybody is comfortable with txtspk, and it is extremely irritating. We aren't all 14 year old giggling schoolchildren here, so we'd appreciate it if you could respond like a responsible adult.

                          Basic questions are legitimate questions. You are not interested in, while many other folks may be. Even homework questions are legitimate ones: after all, none of us (usually) gives complete code. :)

                                    It's a start :)

                                    All right, you guys, I got eight crates of Ipecac from Mort. All on my tab. Now, whoever goes the longest without puking gets the last piece of pie in the fridge.

                                      If we were to type in Asia, I suspect they'd think all our keyboards were broken as well. At least we have the sense to not type there. ;P

                                      keyboards are a thing of the past, we all use iPads now. :)

                                      I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that.

                                        Unfortunately it's a recent Indian cultural development. People use txt-speak in forums, email, and even in official documents (including their resume). :sigh:

                                        Holy cow, and next you'll be telling me they get employment using txt speak as well.

                                          Easy flick all the vowels (leaving I)from your keyboard and avoid using punctuation at all costs.
