The english language is pretty messed up and that goes doubly when it comes to any sort of online communcation. Really, there is just so much that can go wrong. You write one thing and it is totally percieved as another. I get in trouble all the time. I also don't know how many times that I have gotten lost in the many instant message conversations that I have that. I have to constantly look at the history just to figure what the hell I am talk.
Then there are other nuances of online communication to worry about. All CAPS means your shouting, numerous emoticons to remember and then you have to deal with several forms of punctuation.
It can be fun also. You can change innocent sentences such as, (CS is not fun. I don't know who would want to take it) to (CS IS NOT FUN. I don't know who would want to take it) or (CS is not fun. I don't know "who" would want to take it). This game can become extremely fun with certains words that possess sexual connotations, "you" know the "ones" I am talking about. ;o)
