- "U" is not a word. Neither is "r". The only one letter words allowed are "I" and "a". This isn't IM or SMS, and if you don't spend the time to make readable posts, people won't spend the time to decode them. "I was in a hurry" is not an excuse. The only excuse for internet shorthand is if you are posting from a cell phone or other device without a keyboard.
- Proper punctuation, grammar, and spelling, and capitalization are your friends. Posts on ChiefDelphi don't have to be perfect, or even close to perfect, but they should look like you put some thought into them. Don't forget that ChiefDelphi is a public forum, and how you present yourself here reflects not just on you, but on your team and school as well.
I'm sorry if these sound nitpicky, but I am tired of sorting through posts that are just one long run-on sentence. Being able to express yourself clearly in writing is an important skill, and we don't want to reinforce the stereotype of engineers being unable to write, do we?
