    I agree with vishnu priya.....once you have reached a level you have to behave accordingly....and sms text doesn't fit in this.
    Moreover its not even a language. Its good if you keep it just for your buddies.

    I think its fair to banned text messaging.
    It really very difficult for someone to understand.
    Text messaging creates ineffective way of communication.

    First things first: We never banned anyone because they used SMS text.

    I've mentioned this multiple times in various threads - there's a reason why we don't allow SMS text on CE Forums. We are aware that it's painful to type all these characters when the job can be done with just few.

    1. CE is read by professional engineers and engineering students from all over the world [ ~180 countries ] .
    2. Not everyone appreciates SMS text - which is very difficult to read most of the times.
    3. SMS text is NOT the accepted form of communication in professional world. Imagine reading The Times Of India with SMS text all over?

    In any case, you'll have to use full form of the words in your professional world. We are making the job easier for all CEans who are addicted to short forms of words. I personally think SMS should stick to mobiles where typing is really inconvenient.

    SMS texts do have advantages of shortening of labour. But once you start using full form of words and just go against the addiction of SMS texting, you will get that flow of typing. You can have the advantages of doing courses of typing for free, and that too, by making your will your instructor. Its something, on achievement of which, you can have a good feeling and a better hold over English. I should say, it is cool to type full words. It makes a good impression. It also boosts your confidence.

    I seldom understand - 5n,4get,sup?br8?
    my mobile supports - dictionary format so I don't really have to type short forms or what ever.
    But coming to using SMS language on CE- one reason being- when you write a professional email- you don't write " I don udrstd wat u said,cud v get dis srtd out"??? I would mark the user as spam if I recieve any such email. there are some ethics what need to be followed irrespective of their degree of toughness any ways the call is yours- if you want to learn better ways of communicating you cna use proper english.

    Why knowingly create a problem, if you can prevent it by just perfecting yourself. The practice of typing full words can give you a great advantage, just try to implement it.
