I type in full sentences and use proper grammar. Sure, sometimes I have to send two messages to get it all in, but it forces the correction of wordiness. Haha.
Of course, for whatever reason, I'm not charged for sending text messages. For me it's just that it takes time and, if I want to send a message enough, time's no issue.

Not charged for text messages? I've never heard of a cell company not charging for messages. If you've found one like that, stick to them like glue. Mine only charges .05 per message, but still it adds up.

I've been trying to use up my minutes and throught sending text messages would do me in, but they don't seem to take any of my time. It's weird.

My cell phone is $15 for unlimited text messages. This extends to AIM, since my phone's equipped with it. As an unfortunate result, my AIM conversations usually result in "txt-tlk" due to the fact that the RAZR's messaging system SUCKS when it comes to capitalization and punctuation. (You have to hit "1" eight times for a comma)

I don't use the "txt tlk", but I usually end up not using proper grammar. For instance, I won't use commas, or I will avoid using apostrophes when I am typing out contractions because it takes up space. Honestly, it annoys me that the limit is 150 characters.

I avoid it as well as I can, I'm not really sure right now whether i do or not actually. I don't use capitalization though. I'd rather shorten the sentences as well as I can, and if I can't, well, I'll just pay for two messages.

I never use "txt tlk." I can't stand it, and to be honest, it makes me twitch to receive messages written in it. Even right here, I had to go back and delete the "e" in "text" and the "a" in "talk" a couple of seconds ago.

I might abbreviate a little, but I would never txt-tlk. One of my messages would be, "Hey, are we going to NCS now?" I don't understand it without spending time to think about it, so I see no point. My friends see this and use more txt-tlk than me, i.e. "r" instead of "are," but they still kind of follow my example.

I despise text messaging. On the rare occasion when I do text message someone, I always type out my words and use punctuation.

Since most of my text messages are "Supper's ready," I really don't have to bother shortening.
