These forums are a tool for communication, which will be obfuscated by those types of writing. Please do not shorten your words to acronyms or abbreviations. It is very difficult to read and understand. Please use font properties for highlighting portions of your text, and not for all of the text in your post. Typos and other errors can cause miscommunication between users on the forums, please preview your text before posting.
