Aren't Americans taught grammar in school?
 
Yes,in fact I was! I how prim and proper should I have to be? After all this the internet not a essay class or writing school.

I think for one...text or twitter styled posts are fairly discouraged here.

It's like you dropped the board (or those of us who bothered to hazard a guess as to what you were talking about (the bored)) into the middle of some chat or text discussion you were having.

Being clear and concise with your subject then following it with decently structured sentences and paras will do.

And remember, this is a topic forum not twitter tweets. Therefore, I believe the board admin prefers full words and not text message styled abbreviations.

JM:2 cents:

I only used a few abbreviations . Because I think most people can understand what VZW stands for. If you don't its Verizon wireless . Oh ppl stands for people if you've lived under a Damn rock for 30 years. Sound it out you dumb fucks.

Does those three extra letters really take so long time to write that you have to use a pointless abbreviation instead?

Yes, but because we are generally stupid, Americans are not very good at English - and showcase this quite often while at the same time complaining about illegals who are not using proper English.
At the same time, there are also those who are too lazy to type out those entire words - laziness being another great American trait. I mean, who has the time to type out "you" when "u" will suffice?
This is a tradition bought on our forefathers, for whom the original Constitution read:
We teh Peops of the US, in Order to form a more perfect Union, est Justice, insure dom Tranq, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to Rselves and R Posterity, do ordain and establish this Const for the USA.
(unknown to many, there is also a 290 page rant about "those fucking Highland Scott immigrants".)

I'm guessing (and please correct me if I'm wrong) that dinc means Droid Incredible...
gingerbread is the new software update.

I found this blog post on gingerbread for your model. I have the Droid2 Global and will be installing gingerbread today!

Your main problem (besides your attitude) is that in your original post, you say

- missing out (I am assuming) the word WITH between came and incredible. This one little word makes the sentence actually make sense.

This board is not just for the USA (I believe that it is actually hosted in the Netherlands), so VZW is not known to a large number of board users. There are also quite a few members who do not use English as their first language, so abbreviations such as "ppl" may well not be understood even by those not having lived under rocks.


Please note that Board Rules (which can be read here) state:
5.) Do your best to make your posts easy for everyone to read!

Please post in english as ths is the official board language.
Don't use ALL CAPITAL LETTERS as this is considered "shouting" and it makes your post very hard to read.
Do your best to use correct grammar and punctuation (i.e. use paragraphs and avoid deliberately misspelling words).

I know what those abbreviations mean and probably most people here too. However, that's a separate issue from those types of abbreviations being discouraged by the board admin.:2 cents:

^^This too.

Even then it doesn't make much sense :facepalm: :rofl2:

He also seems really angry and agressive which makes me want to help him even less

Yes,it does stand for Droid incredible. I'm glad somebody here understands what I'm talking about. And I'm not being aggressive nor do I have an attitude. It just seems a ton of people here are not the sharpest tool in the shed. Meaning they less then the adequate number of brain cells to think.

I got it this morning in NJ. The only thing i notice so far is when you close a program it fades out instead of just closeing real quick.

I'm sure most people on here understand text language, however not everyone here speaks English as their first language and may not understand text language.
The world does not revolve around America, be considerate to the members of this forum who cannot speak English as well as you, most of which are probably a hell of a lot smarter than you

So saying that the members who tell you to use proper words rather than abbreviated ones are Idiots is just ridiculous. It is in the rules that you should use full words, so if we don't want you to speak in abreviated words, it is not because we can't understand them, it is because it says in the rules not to
:facepalm:
