Translation:
Hey, why are you smart and type gay(?)? Laugh out loud (times 13) You are dumb and I think you should listen up so you know to have more friends since smart people are nerds and have no friends. So you should listen to me and type better so you can be understood by everyone in gaia.

ByeBye and P.S. warhammer 40 thousand are a good game to play.

(okay done)

Well that's the best I can do.

In case no one truly knows what we're up against, I can sort out three types of noobish text-talkers:

Text Talker Classification

Level One Text Talker: Your typical, casual text-talker. Harmless, but poses no real threat, except some minor mental scarring. Can also be spotted out in the real world, speaking their language frequently in the workplace.

Level Two Text Talker: The more arrogant kind of text-talker. This variation will mainly brag about his good "grammar" and vilify others' correctiveness. A number of others may even glamourize it, saying that speaking their language will "make you understandable in all of Gaia, get you a ton of friends, and have free snoo-snoo with an entire country."

Level Three Text Talker: The handful of delusionals that head the few but equally strong text-talk armies out there. They are the militants of the text-talking world, and they brand all literate Gaians as "Public Enemy Number One." Truly a threat to our last remaining literate utopias, for they have the most power in the public world, as evident in today's media. They also rule the countries of GeeDee (the GD Forum) and now seek to conquer EeeDee (Extended Discussion)


We're up against a second-class text talker. Not very dangerous, but still a considerable threat to our members.

You poor thing. I am so, so sorry.
heavens_akki, good translation. I believe 'gut' (first sentence, marked as questionable in your version) is intended to mean 'good'.

I especially loved the part were he said "type better so you can be understood..." according to heavens_akki's translation that is because I sure as hell could not tell what that said.
