exigentsky
Many people are uneducated and they want to be around others like them. I notice in online chatrooms that if I write well and make intelligent comments, I get no rapport. However, if I deliberately write like a moron who hasn't passed the fourth grade, people talk to me more and send me friend requests. i tink maybe u guys r diff. and stuf but lol its depressing sometimes... wonder if any u had similar exp. or if i'm jst a freak... were chessplayers after all lolz.. maybe theres people who respect other things here i dont know... who cares.. wunder if tis only in online stff like that or if its like da same in real life and people r turned off by smartys..i wuldnt want to offense any u so il" shutup now... share.. PEACE bros!!1 :)

I know exactly what you mean, I have been in a few chat rooms I don't bother anymore because people make stupid comments and talk very immaturely. But yeah some people are just like that not very intelligent. Also I have noticed some people think they are strong, sitting at a PC screen arguing with you over the Internet when really they are probablyweak; and there only chance to make fun of someone or get on someones nerves is over the Internet, because if they did it in person they would get blown out of the water !
