Why Do People Type Badly?

[Zaffre]

But it makes sense in online multiplayer, especially in FPS games. Generally you don't want to do any typing apart from the courtesy "gg" at the end of each round but if you need to issue a general command to someone or just chat with people when things aren't too hectic, you want to spend as little time as possible typing. It's no excuse for using broken language, but things like no punctuation, all lowercase characters and acceptable abbreviations should be alright.

FPS I can understand. The first (and only) time I played MW3's multiplayer, I said that dropshots were an easy tactic of winning a fight, because almost all of the enemy team was using them. Somebody continued to type into chat: "qq no skill n00b lol fail go watch mlp". He spent time typing that. The numerals in "noob" were unnecessary, and it takes longer to type n00b then noob (due to you having to shift your hands in the home row position). This could possibly prove that he spent time he could have saved. I see many people coordinating through team chat in games like TF2. They stop to take time to chat with their team (note: if the team is good), and even if they do, they are spending time typing. However, the question was not asking about one particular genre, though first person shooter is infamous for the generally immature community, and was asked in general.

Notice: This may have not been my most sensible post. I had a lot of sugar and caffeine a while ago and now it's starting to come down on me.
