Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think testing does have an affect on some people when they talk to there teacher or writing an essay because you might end up saying "omg" to your teachers or in your essay and thats gonna fail some people but it also depends on how long you text and if your testing while doing your school work then it will really interfere.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I would have to say yes it does because, it want you to take shortcuts when you writing something.You know like when you want to write 2day in an text but some people also write 2day in they papers or essay, because they are so use of writing like that on their phone or online. But the correct term is to write today. The reason why people may write like this on their paper or essays because it faster to them. They are use to texting so fast on their phone. So they text so much so what they do is just let it carry over into they writing skills. Because they text so much they just can't tranfer over into they profeesinal writing skills.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Texting is only the tip on the ice burg we as a society have slowly become dependant on technology and has taken a dramatic effect on our communication. Texting has become the new talking and thus we have lost a sense of connection with reality with others. Deep meaning full moments such as asking out the girl you like to tragic news such as the passing of a love one we recieve all this through text. This then translate to our communication we lose a personal connection and would rather text our friends thus when you really need to talk to someone you seem out of place. I know when I recieve a phone call even now from most of my friends im not shock but just short of that. This even translates itself to the way we write many can agree as even I do this, I will be writing and will catch myself making shorter words such as Be4, U, lol, gtg, and so on. This is a terrible thing and a tragic side effect could be similar to 1984 as this has become our "NEWSPEAK." I could not see myself doing anything else but texting but the fact that it has an effect on the person's communication skills is undeniable
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes I belive that texting has a negative effect on other means of communication because when you text so offten you get in a routine spelling in short-hand and it's is hard for some people to go back speeking in proper english.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Sadly yes, even though it sounds ludicrous that texting could have negative effects on your speech, it is true, and happens more often then not. It's kind of like how in 1984 the government teaches the citizens how to use "Newspeak", which is a way of speaking in short, depreciated way. The same process applies with texting which obviously takes a toll on our speech.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: No

I text quite often, and I don't usually get my oral writing, and my texting mixed up. Texting is going on all the time. I would say that most people do text. Probably 28 out of 30 people in this class text. I think that the "texting language" has become so diverse that most people know what you're talking about. But, texting is a part of technology, and technology is only going to keep growing and getting more and more advanced.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes I think that it have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate because you are so used to typing words or sentences in short form that it makes you hard to communicate in normal way.They usually use word like"lol" or "omg" that would sound stupid and if we say it orally. Typing words in short form may save much time but it effects the vocabolary like using " donno" for "don't know", "u" for "you" or any other words.It greatly effects the writing ability of students that they make mistakes even writing a simple paper. It greatly effects their grade due to this.If this goes on this might effect their communicating skiils because they are so used to texting to people than talking to them face to face.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes, I believe texting does have and affect on the way we commmunicate. I think that is not as much as when you communicate orally but it does on your writing. You get used to making words shorter and easy to text such are "u" for "you" and leaving out the g's on words like "doin". Some people say it doesn't effect but just by writing an english paper you begin to write as if you was texting and you dont even realise.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I say yes texting does have an effect on one's ability to communicate in other arenas. One reason is because when are talking to someone verbally things like lol or omg would be pretty stupid to use out loud. Another example would be like writing a paper for a class. It wouldnt be the same for me because i use the number 2 for the word to and the number 4 for the word for and other things like that when i text. So if im writing a paper it would effect me because i cant do that on a paper that i have to write for a teacher. So that is why i say yes it would effect me and other people when trying to communicate in other arenas.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think that it does because when you do something a lot of times it becomes a habit. Since most people text all the time they get in the habit of shorting words or saying abbreviations. Some people say LOL out loud and to me there is no sense in that because talking is not that hard why shorten it.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I don’t believe texting has that whole effect on me when I speak towards someone, but it does on others. When I text someone I usually do it in proper grammar, but when I don't, it doesn’t effect anything. My grammar isn't perfect to begin with, but I try to spell out every word. When I speak to someone professional I speak professional, when i speak to my friends, I speak normally. I text all the time, but 90% of the time I text grammatically correct. I typically hang out with the smart crowd, and we just talk normal. I don’t really hear the text-talk that much. I guess it depends on the person, because I’ve heard people speaking abilities, and sounds just like their texts. It doesn’t really effect me at all, but it might effect others.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes I think it does effect the ability to communicate orally or written. when I’m texting, writing an email or anything of that sort I always use "lol, omg, idk" when I am trying to write a paper or a formal letter it sometimes becomes difficult for me to say what I want with out using those things. Also when we become accustom to using those acronyms we forget to expand our vocabulary and over time we become illiterate.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Well I am kind of in the middle because it does effect me sometime I'm not even going to lie. But at the end that is where revise and editing come in to play. That allows you to check your work and spelling on your paper. But on the other hand texting is the new thing in the world today everybody does and and you just have to live with and and make sure any time you write a paper pr something you edit it.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I personally think that texting does have adverse effects especially when people try to communicate with each other. When they try to use the abbreviated words and say them out loud, I hate the fact that every time that my teacher assigns me to do an essay I do it but some how I start writing the way I text. For example instead of writing “you” ill put a simple “u”. There are many things that we say out loud that sound so stupid and you don’t even know because of the fact that you are already use to it.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I feel like texting does effect the way we communicate when we write formally and sometimes when we talk orally. High school students who text tend to communicate differently because of the way they they talk in a text message to their friends. Last year I would text all the time and as a way to save time I would abbreviate a word and when writing an essay I would sometimes forget and abbreviate a word in my essay and when I would read it back to myself I would see my error and I would have to go back and correct myself. I still text but when I do I make sure I spell the whole word.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think it makes you more illiterate but at the same time, makes you a lot faster with your hands and fingers. For example, you text all the time, no one uses correct grammar and punctuation when texting, thats the point of texting. The point is to get your message to the person quick and easy. Everyone uses slang and they abrieveate everything they text. When you write or type something you sometimes bring that into the writing, making your writing look like a child did it.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes it does. Are world has evolved in many ways mainly in communication and ways to communicate. When people text they tend to use a type of communication were they brake words down and make up words ECT. And eventually I believe that people will start to talk and write like the way they text.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think texting does effect people in their communication of writing and speaking. When a person types a text they shorten word and use a weird slang, for example "wat u doin", thats is not the correct way of spelling. When their not typing on a phone and are typing a school essay they type the same way as they text because their just use to it. Also, sme talk the same way they text which doesn't make sense and makes you look stupid. Imagine going to a job interview and talking ith text slang you would probably wont get the job.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes I do think that texting effects communication in other areas. For instance if I'm texting and someone is talking to me I hear every other word when their telling me something. When I'm writing something down I end up shorting the words or will use a "slang" word and have to go back and change it. The whole time I been writing this I have had to go back and change spellings, "lol". But texting does have a some good to it, when you use this font called "T9" its a spell check for you so if you don't know how to spell a word and you almost think it's right it'll let you know; and on my phone i have a miniature keyboard so it helps for me on the computer because I automatically know where the letters are. So it does have some good but it is also a distraction you end up forgetting what your doing or you just stop everything and it takes up time. But it's great for when your bored.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

"LOL, OMG, and JK, " are all used in texting and are now beginning to be used in everyday language. So yes it is affecting communication. In writing papers you would generally use proper grammer and write everything out as if it were in an exponential form but with words. Now we see more and more everyday where a paper might be written with shortened expressions, or written in slang and most times the writer is unaware of the minor blooper, or to them it just seems better put that way... It's as if they are speaking new speak.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think to a certain extent, texting does have an adverse effect. Mostly to people who are constantly texting all day. I have witnessed people saying "lol" and "omg" in daily life, so it becomes a habit. More so it hurts your writing more than anything else, when texting you really don't bring punctuation into the whole ordeal. I find myself abbreviating many of the common words like "you" into "u" and a lot of other ones.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think that it does effects one's ability to comminicate, because for example: many people can't express their feelings through a text message. Many times students Or even college students won't even write a good essay because the addiction of texting. In my opinion texting has always been a good tool to communicate, but In the same way it affects our communication.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes I think texting affects you when you are writing an essay or doing a work that requires writing because sometimes instead of spelling the whole words you use the writing you use when you are texting. For example instead of writing the word are you would write just the letter r and it would be the same thing with the word you, you would write just the letter u. And when it comes at grading the essays most of the students get mad because they receive a low grade in their essay.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I have to go with yes on this one. Most people can control not writing how they text or speak how they text but some can't. For example, the other day in the hallway a girl got bumped into and the said "OMG" so it does have an effect on someone's ability to communicate. I really don't hear any dudes communicating how we text, it's mostly the girls that do that and they think it's cool but it's really not. Girls sound mighty dumb when they talk like that. As far as writing goes, I sometimes feel like putting "ppl" instead of "people" but I catch myself. I don't think it's that hard to control not writing how you text but it does happen.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes it does. I have caught myself doing it a couple of times while i was typing. Texting carries over from your phone to your writing. Texting can develope bad habits.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think that texting does effect the way you communicate to people. Texting makes you develop bad habits. Those bad habits carry on whenever you have to do write an essay. So when people look at your essays they look at it in confusion.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Texting does effect people's everyday communication. Personally it doesn't effect me orally but it does effect me when I write formal essays. I would start to shorten words such as you, or why. I think it really doesn't effect people speech much but some people say dumb things out loud but for the most part it doesn't.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes, I think it does have an effect. You get so used to writing in text language that its just habit to write it in other places also. When you text you get used to being lazy, so it's easy to be lazy in other things too. I personally for the most part write out what I mean in a text, unless it is just really long, because it's not that hard to just write it out.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think it has a huge effects. Some people write papers like how they text. Sometimes it is hard to change the way you write from texting style to how you have to write in class. Especially in english when you can't misspell a word or your grammer has to be really good. I know some people can text and than re-adjust their brains to think straight when they are writing a paper. But it takes a lot of practice and you still sometimes think how like you text. It's really difficult to go from the way you text to how you have to write when you communicate or write.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes, I believe that texting affects the way we coomunicate in every way. When people get too comfortable with something such as texting, they tend to use it often and not even acknoledge that fact that they are doing it. When the time comes for a person to write a formal essay or a letter, they tend to begin writing the way that they text or talk, and it really seems to them like they are writng accuratly, but they really arent. I believe that texting is a great thing. It helps us all in many ways, but it would be even more useful if people would text the same way that they would write a major paper.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I believe texting does affect your ability in other areas of communication. Actual writings become shorter, filled with choppy grammar and slang, and often leaves something more to be desired. While I do say that this does not happen 100% of the time, the good majority of teens and young adults who do it, do it to a point where I dont even want to read anymore...(lol, i wrote a whole paragraph perfectly n i text-talk too >:p )
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Texting does have a adverse effec on peple's ability to communicate. When people constantly text, they tend to abbvrivate longer words, and their brain gets used to that. So they start doing that to their writings. I remember watching a commercial where the mom ask'd her kid who she's talking to and she replied, " idk my bff jill". I think its a little funny, but its an insult to the english language.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I honestly have to say yes that texting does have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate. I'm saying this because in papers you see full sentences. But, In texting you hardly see people write in full sentences, you mostly see people text in shorter abbreviations than full sentences. Not mention it also effects the way we write in our English papers. Most people want to just shorten the word instead of using correct spelling & Correct Grammar. They may want to use it for easier way out of spelling things. so that's why i say yes.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes, but it does have an effect, but I'm not sure if it has a very negative effect. For some people, texting is a way to have awkward conversations without being embarassed of being on the phone or being, pretty muhc being in the conversation at that exact point of time. Texting is way to have a conversation without being completely being there to immediately hear & understand the other person's response. The most adverse effect I would give texting beside its offending way of spelling certain words and it's pointless acronyms, is that texting has made people very dependent on not being able to have a real, meaningful conversation in the moment; we are weak when it comes to dealing with a situation at hand right there in that minute.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think it does affect in a way that we write in short words and people uses slang words and it just makes them get used to it and it can affect us in our day living even at school when writing essays. Sometimes is better to write things in the proper way that way we don't make mistakes.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes texting has an effect because when I ext I sometime abbreviate words. Verse when I’m writing a paper, filling out a job applications, or talking I don’t abbreviate. It would sound really lame if I did when I talked. The whole point of texting is to communicate faster. So therefore when I text I speak slang but I know not to speak that way when I’m witting a paper, or if I’m a job interview.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes I do believe that text messaging has an adverse effect on one’s ability to communicate in other arenas because most people use slang in their writing. Text messaging can be a very diverse form of communication for many reasons. For example, when people text, a lot of times they use “lol” and omg and other forms of the words. A lot of the time people don’t capitalize I in text messaging. I feel that when people use slang and other forms of words, they transfer that over into their everyday talking language. I hear people in the hallways that are speaking in slang and they think that they are “cool,” but it makes them sound non-intelligent. I think that when people text all the time, it brings their ability to write down. They want to use their everyday slang in their writing. I do believe that text messaging does effect one’s ability to communicate with others.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

Yes! Big time effect on a person's ability to communicate in other arena's. In english that mean no one can understand your type of language in texting(writing). To some young people it might be hip and cool, but when it comes time where you get into business world as an adult you need correct grammer and tone for the rest of your life. Half of the people in this world don't understand half of that stuff. Use correct grammer, like u were taught in school from pre-k to adult life.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I think that texting does mess with other forms of our communication. When I text I try to use as much proper grammar as I can mostly because I can't understand some of the texts that I get. And because I don't get some of the simple texts how do I know that the person I am sending a text to is going to understand it. Then people that don't spell out their words or write sentence fragments speak the way that they write and they sound stupid.
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I believe that texting does have an adverse effect in our ability to communicate. Sometimes whenever we are writting essays we accidentaly start writting abbreviated like we would when texting. For example "u" instead of "you" or "r" instead of "are". Also, some people start talking slang and shortening words like actually saying "o-m-g" for "oh my gosh."
Debate: Does texting have adverse effects on one's ability to communicate in other arena
Side: yes

I feel like texting does effect one's ability to communicate in other arenas. If the most popular form of writing you do on a daily is misspelling words and fragment sentences, then once you do in a serious situation your going to overlook it because your not use to looking at it as being spelled wrong so it wont click in your head to go and change it.
