Cecelia Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Pray tell,are there any youngsters here atall?? Like..20ish year olds?? More specifically,20- 23. Every one here seems to be over 25. Chai. I'm not d baby of the house, right??! Ion think so. The annoying thing is the 'older' fine folks here seem to think d higher ur age is, d more mature u are, or like we 20yr olds are childish or summat. I beg to differ tho! Ok, this is beginning to sound like I'm venting. Which I'm not by the way. Jus saying! (Or asking) #OkBye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, I am not saying all younger individuals write this way but the proof is in the pudding.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daftpunk Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 LOL harsh. I do not think you are right though @ Cecilia, as I find there are lots of people below 25 on here. You are probably hitting up those above 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abystacy Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 One can tell the difference by your choice of words. Whether you are 20 or 50 , maturity all depends on how you choose to portray yourself. You are sounding the exact way you don't want to be associated with...tune it down a bit....just saying.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cecelia Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Lol. So d funny thing is,i thought ov that while I was typin d msg, nd how y'all wud go 'see how she types even' and I almost went back en re-wrote the damn thing buh I tot not to. D fact that y'all are stuck up about the abbreviations only goes to prove my point. Old ladies. Its cool tho. M contradicting all ur stereotypical and misguided views on how a mature or immature person shud or shudnt behave. And abbreviations don't make the 'do not' list if u ask me. It being an informal setting on here and all that...I'm not looking to impress any one on here with my abilities in spelling. Done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators moresko Posted June 4, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 4, 2014 ?? or ??! or "Ion" aren't abbreviations. What about the lack of space between words, are you abbreviating or you just have something against using the space bar. I have nothing against using abbreviations nor does it have anything to do with age, but do it with the understanding that people are going to perceive a lot about you by the way you write. Writing legibly or speaking properly in whatever language (Yoruba, English, Hausa, or Ibo) is a sign of maturity, its not about impressing anyone. I'm not snob or uppity, but you complained that "older" members perceive you as immature, and I just pointed out one of the OBVIOUS reason why; if that makes me stuck up, well cool.

M2DD Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Is Summat an abbreviation ? Is Ion an abbreviation ? No wonder the older people think you're not matured , I don't think maturity is about age though , I'm 10 years older than my sister and I can actually relate so well with her , because she's matured . And guess what, she's a teenager and she would not even write like this. For the record , no one is interested in your spelling skills , just write legibly . Goodluck with finding the younger ones .

Boopsie Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Wow, I mean, you started a topic titled "jesus! So many, umm, 'older ladies' here" and you're wonderin why people getting salty??

Moderators moresko Posted June 5, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 5, 2014 Site is suddenly becoming unappealing. Can't someone post a topic or air a point of view without being judged, mocked, bullied or insulted. So people are not allowed to disagree, I don't see the mocking, the bullying, or insulting. I don't understand why people think they can make statements, but can't take disagreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
