My exact sentence was: "However I will agree tho...that I dont like the tendency in peoples use of txt/sms slang language. The worst parts of that includes using z instead of s, spelling things wrong on purpose and in modern young slang and finally..how the nerds online spell (wOOt...hez so gay etc.)."

Now....WHERE do i say that I dont like people who write like the ORIGINAL poster did? Im writing about something completely else. Im writing about a TENDENCY...in peoples language in general in the world, written as well as spoken.

Not rude at all.
I see two things in that sentence that indicates rudeness rather than friendlyness. The commanding way of starting a sentence with "Learn to.." and secondly the use of the word "babble". A single "Please" infront of the Learn word together with replacing the word babble with a more polite word as "text" would clearly have helped and probably avoided this whole discussion.

In general...just as much as you dont like "lazy" posts, I dont like rude posts. So if you're allowed to post rude posts, I dont see why Im not allowed to be against your posts.

My arguments lives perfectly well. No shit that the original poster betters her english after your insults. Noone wants to relive that again. So in that sense, I guess your mission succeeded.
