Seriously. I know this topic has been up before (as a matter of fact I started a thread about it some time ago). But I can't hold it back anymore.

Why the hell does everyone (and by everyone I mean approximately 80 % of everyone) keep on battering the english language? You know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the plague that has affected hardstyle since I-don't-know-when. It's the Z-virus! And it is straight out horrible. For one thing it annoys me when 's' is exchanged for 'z' in tracknames, but hey - I've come to accept it, since like everyone (like defined above) keeps on doing it. But when people even use it when they write texts in forums and such; then I can't hold it back anymore. I do understand if you do it for fun, like in a sarcastic way - but I've noticed that some people do exchange the letters without any sarcasm in mind. Or they think it looks more 'hardcore' if they write some z's instead of s's. Dipshits is what they look like.

I just browsed into Screamer Hardstyle the other day, and oh my God how sick of the virus that site is. For example:

Quote:
"Thiz topic iz linked to the download section from thiz board."


What the hell is wrong with you people? Why do you keep on writing stuff that makes you look like retards? I'm dead serious. No wonder people outside our culture think we're strange (at least here in Sweden). It makes me at least feel kind of embarrassed.

A whole lot of respect to those of you who are immune to the virus and resist naming your songs with twohundred Z's and do know that 'this' is spelled like 'this' and not like 'thiz'. I'm going nuts! I see Z's everywhere! I think they're going to invade the planet, and hardstyle is infected as hell. People, why? Why? WHY?! It isn't cool. It is retarded.

(Phew. I just had to express what I feel. Feel free to hate me now, but really - I'm going nuts. Nuts, I tell you!)

good you wrote this post, agree fully.
reading on screamer seriously makes me feel bad, it gives me the impression that the site is being run by 10 year olds.. they even write their posts like that, wtf is that all about

I have noticed Z bein used a lot in tracknames but not so much in genral disscusion as you showed is bein done at places like screamer.

Tracknames i dont really have a problem with but defo agree that it shouldnt be used in normal chat it seems a bit stupid.

funny to see since screamer hardstyle is almost equal in popularity/users az GHF

despite the 'z, makes people not post, but overall reads

az for scantraxxz, dunno.. i kinda like the z, it gives a special twist to writing. i'm never bothered by it, though it looked strange cuz i didn't like it in the past

This is the reason why i post so so so so not much there, just top 10's...and just sometimes

nothing wrong when that started and just some ppl used Z instead of S, you know just for funny variation, but now almost everyone :x

please avoid making this a screamer bashing topic.. but indeed the z is of common use there.

Well it isn't pretty new either. A swedish danceband Lasse Stefanz got their z back in 1969 when an eventholder ran out of S for their announceboards so he had to put a z instead. No matters. What goes around comes around, the earth is round after all.
