I find instant messaging shorthand infuriating. It's difficult to read and I'm not knowledgeable on all of the abbreviations. I think it's fine for mobile phone text messaging, but if I see that kind of shorthand on a forum post, I won't bother reading it.

I am aware that my grammar is not perfect, but at least I always make an effort to spell things correctly and take the time to construct a sentence.
