an enlightening thing I've seen them talk about though is how they've trained their chatgpt to speak to them like one has it in full netspeak mode while another was like Obviously I made it a gyaru and it's just like yeah everyone wants a slave secretary with a totally malleable personality

Every now and then a trad pub magazine publishes a long, thoughtful article that isn't filled with nervous attempts at netspeak and I'm reminded of what we've all lost

they're literally just chatting with their friends, typos and shorthand and "netspeak" are literally just how many people communicate since the internet has existed
emailing in a semi-literate manner isn’t a sign of stupidity, it’s another form of rich asshole arrogance because you don’t think you owe anyone coherent thoughts

I’m so terminally online that I use netspeak in casual conversation

Style: More expressions of gratitude, feeling, and third-person plural drive SOVC generally. "Netspeak" (e.g. lol, haha, emoji) and a focus on the future are signals of stronger membership & belonging. Is this the case in your favorite communities?

Reading the Iliad (as you do when in the Mediterranean, W.C. Bryant’s translation) and without checking I’m pretty sure Tolkien liberally took stylistic inspiration from it.
Also learned that spellings like ”cursèd” is from there, rather than netspeak: constant use of ”wingèd” etc.

so I speak with Dundonian (Dundee), slang (kinda ned like), Fife formality (one might say), US/UK TV, n netspeak (old n new, tho gave up on Reddit "mid" COVID)
also I type with younger gen-y/gen-z/α lowercase
easy
the battle between context switching n masking and staying real to my roots is real

This new species of sub-humans, internet trolls— can be traced directly to the Trump regime. Their “netspeak” consists of inflaming others, dragging them down, or goading people for the sole purpose of bringing anyone to their lowest and most undignified level. www.palmerreport.com/analysis/thi...
This is just embarrassing for JD Vance

I JUST REALIZED THAT BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL PREDATES STEINS;GATES. IT MUST BE REALLY EARLY 00'S SLANG/NETSPEAK, WHICH I BET IS PROBABLY FUN TO SEE.

It sounds like their complaints with the official localization have to do with consistency with other games in the series and also translator notes. To be honest, though, I really liked the translator notes. I enjoyed having context on the 2000s-era Japanese slang/netspeak they were actually using.

rewatching GQux E6 and something I really like about both Gundam and Final Fantasy is the way that characters just read English and Japanese equally. Cloud Strife sees street signs in classical kanji and checks a text on his phone in netspeak. Nyaan wrote in English on her calendar n has JPN books

imo its more 'cringe' to conform & have a netspeak in ur own private netspace emulating it girls/guys waiting 2 be the next niche celeb.
I'd rather talk to a person having a semblance of personality amongst the sea of cliche wannabes.

Anime YouTubers have this (to me) infuriating habit of saying “the MC” instead of “Main Character.”
It’s spoken netspeak that I hate when typed and I loath when spoken.

I read the paper behind this newspaper article and it's hilarious (in the not so good way). A bit of a red flag when a study on digital linguistic practice published in 2024 contains a "netspeak variable".
Feels a bit like this could have been written about 20 years ago but it raises some interesting points about how we represent ourselves in our digital language choices.
