I can't believe you made that [no netspeak/sms talk] part of the rules.

Congratulations, I can't stand it.
While it might be ok on a mobile phone with a limited keyboard, it 
simply amounts to lazy keyboard habits when the offender has a fully
featured computer keyboard on their desk.

But you do also have a point when it comes to those from another country.

It can be very difficult to learn the standard language, let alone
all the local slang.

I hope other groups take this rule up too.
